Our hero.

We've written of Castelli's Aero Race 5.0 as something of a villain to the competition from other manufacturers, and it's fair to say that the Body Paint shorts are equally threatening to inferior kit. Combine the two, though, and you get the super-hero worthy San Remo 3.0 Speed Suit. Even Castelli seems in awe of the San Remo, noting that it "may be the fastest bit of kit ever invented for road racing." The suit is also also capable of speaking for itself, with such victories as Vansummeren's win in Roubaix charting a course of development that culminates today with the San Remo 3.0.


The top half of this dynamic duo is the Aero Race 5.0, which incorporates two materials: a front panel of Velocity dry and back and sleeve panels of 3D fabric. Velocity Dry is quick-drying and boasts a low weight and a tightly knit weave to manage laminar airflow over the body. 3D Fabric adds to these benefits with a dimpled, wind-shedding texture that also expands the fibers' effective surface area without adding mass, allowing for increased wicking and an even faster evaporation. A girdle of limited-stretch material keeps the three rear pockets well-behaved, even while they're loaded down with enough spare tubes to see you over the stones of the Hell of the North.


The suit's bottom half is really just a bib-free version of the Body Paint Shorts, which use a single piece of ergonomically-shaped compressive fabric for a naturally supportive fit. This smooth, seamless fit is complemented with dimples that, like certain carbon wheels, induce airflow separation to reduce drag. The incorporation of the Body Paint platform also means one of our features comes along for the ride: the Giro3 integrated leg grippers omit pinching elastics in favor of a gently compressive, five-centimeter band of grip that lays perfectly flat to eliminate any wind-catching transitions from skin to shorts.


The suit is finished with Castelli's obsessively redesigned Progetto X2 Air Seat Pad. Since Castelli had it pretty right to begin with, there wasn't much more than tweaking to do to this beloved chamois, but the Italian perfectionists couldn't resist. They've added perforations to the foam and viscous comfort layers to help ventilate and cool by allowing air to flow directly onto the four-way stretch, bacteriostatic surface fabric. With these subtle updates, the discomforts of the road stand as much chance of throwing you off your game as laminar drag.
