The Castelli Free Aero Race 4 Woman’s Short has the best of the best sewn into its design. The Progetto X² Air Seamless Donna is the best seat pad. The Forza with Lycra is performance based aerodynamic fabric and the design eliminates all unnecessary material so a female cyclist rides in fast lightweight bib-shorts. Castelli found the right combination of fabrics to use, with minimal seams in the right places, so as to create an exceptionally comfortable woman’s specific cycling short. The combination creates shorts that compress in the right places so when the cyclist moves her cycling shorts move in harmony. A woman cyclist will never see a crease in her shorts whether she is in the saddle or sprinting out of the saddle. Performance body temperature is maintained by the types of fabric and location of seams. The soft Forza fabric with Lycra® is a very compressive fabric that supports working muscles by stimulating circulation to increase how quickly you recover from pedal stroke to pedal stroke. Fit is perfected around the waist by a lumbar support band designed specifically for a woman’s body. The high-stretch fabric, with a soft touch and minimal seams, provides incomparable comfort. The Progetto X² Air Seamless Donna seat pad is Castelli’s best and most comfortable seat pad. Designed specifically for a woman’s anatomy, the seat pad is race specific which means its padding does not interfere with the pedal stroke and it stays dry during high-intensity racing. However, the female body needs extra padding under the sit bones and perineal region so Castelli added Viscous Comfort Inserts which add extra padding in the most sensitive parts of the seat area. The seamless top layer has been made more stretchy and softer so a female cyclist stays incredibly comfortable even by the time she gets to the 100th mile of a ride. The leg gripper compresses without creating the sausage effect, another feature adding to comfort.
