Cycling shorts

Cycling bib shorts: with straps, without straps, short and long

The bib shorts are the piece that determines comfort on long rides. Triathlon Store brings together Castelli bib shorts, the benchmark Italian cycling brand, and 2XU compression shorts, for men, women and children, for road, gravel or triathlon.

With straps or without straps?

Bib shorts (bibshort) stay in place without tight elastic at the bottom of the leg: they are the choice for long rides and competition. Shorts without straps are quicker to put on and remain very comfortable for training. The Free Aero RC is Castelli's benchmark race bib short, with its Progetto X2 Air seamless skin and its compression fabric.
