Each year the pro peloton gets faster. Castelli must provide its pro riders with faster cycling apparel to keep up with their competitors. In order to stay ahead, Castelli uses input from its pro riders as well as extensive research to find new technology to design even faster race jerseys. The Aero Race 6.0 Jersey, Castelli’s sixth aero race jersey, is Castelli’s fastest cycling jersey worn by its top-level professional riders as they cross the line ahead of everyone else. In 2006, when Castelli designed their first aero jersey, aerodynamic design was just for time trial clothing. At the time, race jerseys were slightly baggy, but they stayed dry, which appeared to be the main requirement for a race jersey. Based on rider input, Castelli recognized that aerodynamic clothing would give advantages to racers battling it out in the peloton. With careful planning, they began their pursuit of finding the right materials to create an aerodynamic jersey that also manages moisture and keeps a rider cool. Their first aero jersey led the way for the rest of the designers who followed suit. Each year Castelli appears to have made the most aero race jersey in the peloton, yet each new design is faster without losing the ability to keep a racer dry as he pushes his body to the limit. The Aero Race 6.0 Jersey is Castelli’s fastest race jersey thanks to Castelli’s CFD analysis of where to put the fabrics and where to place the seams. The Velocity Rev 2 fabric on front and sleeves is stretchy and it wicks sweat immediately. The longer sleeves are cut with raw edge seams that lie flat so there is no surface that creates friction between rider and air. The back tail is a little longer, keeping a rider covered as he is leaned over the bike. The same design keeps the three rear pockets in place when they are filled with food and extra water bottles. The 3D mesh back provides maximum ventilation; a rider’s sweat dries and he stays cool as race intensity peaks and body temperature rises. Finally, the full-length zipper tailors the Aero Race 6.0 to fit like a second skin.
