Castelli Polare 3 Bibtight

Find the right cycling clothes so you can ride your bike during the wintery months when the temperature drops below freezing and stays there. The Polare 3 Bib-tight is Castelli’s bib-tight for riding in cold weather over roads covered with snow and ice. The full-length wind protection and the warmest fabric protect on cold winter days so you can stay fit when most have hung up their bikes and given up until Spring weather brings them back out. Castelli has been designing race clothing for a century. They have learned how to make clothes to protect the racer who needs to perform. In cold weather, the performance athlete will push his body to the limit and sweat. Even though a cyclist sweats on winter training rides and races, the cold weather remains. In the Polare 3, the full GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® X-Fast on the front is a dense material that blocks wind but allows sweat to evaporate. It’s designed to protect the athlete in undesirable winter weather. The membrane in the fabric has billions of pores that are 900 times larger than water vapor molecules. Even though wind can’t get in, body moisture can get out, so your body temperature stays stable. On the outside, a Durable Water Repellant treatment is applied so when riding over those wet, wintery roads you won’t get wet from road spray. Nano Flex G3 has been added on seat and lower back leg for extra protection when riding over wet roads. For extra warmth, Thermoflex has been added on the back and the mesh bibs are extra breathable to ensure the bibs don’t get wet. Castelli has perfected the seat pad for the racer. The KISS Air² seat pad has great cushioning without having excessive bulk so you are protected on those endurance rides without unneeded extra seat pad. The KISS Air² has a malleable seat pad that adjusts to the anatomy of a cyclist. Seamless on the surface, the seat pad feels amazingly comfortable. Reflective stripes create a more visible surface when the sun is covered by clouds and ankle zips make it easy to get in and out of these Castelli bib-tights that provide a race-fit for the racer who will not stop training when it gets cold.
