Castelli’s latest version of the Velocissima Bib short updates both the interior and exterior of the bib to make them more comfortable than ever. Designed for training both indoors and on the road, the Velocissima 2 Bib Short is crafted from Castelli’s Endurance Evolution fabric to provide compressive support and effective moisture management. Staying dry is a nice benefit on a long ride, but the shorts' real strength is the compression, which helps reduce muscle fatigue to keep legs fresh beyond the second or third hour of a ride.
New for the second version, the bibs are finished with a raw-edge hem to prevent any pinching or constricting at the thigh. Vertical silicone strips along the interior of the hem keep the short in place, which we’ve come to greatly appreciate during summer group rides. The waist construction reduces seams to eliminate irritation when in the riding position. Lightweight mesh bib straps keep the bib upper in place, without any gimmicks, just well-designed and well-cut fabrics. The Velocissima 2 uses an updated chamois, a women’s-specific KISS Air2, which is Castelli’s preferred long-distance insert. The shorts are finished with reflective elements to help keep you visible in low-light conditions.

Great bibs, terrible chamois
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
I really wanted to love these. The bibs themselves fit perfectly. The chamois was another story. I agree with the other review. Rough seams and felt like two pieces of wood strapped to my rear end. Sadly these are being returned.

Sweat marks and bad chamois
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I own lots of Castelli products and absolutely love them. This bib was the opposite of my normal experience with Castelli. On the plus side, the fit is accurate and I really like that there is no seam on the bottom of the short- much more flattering. The reason I'm giving one star is because 1. the color was a light grey not "dark blue"; 2. after biking for 45 minutes it started showing sweat marks radiating from the chamois up and out- which was really embarrassing when I got off my bike and had to have conversations with a bunch of dudes; 3. the chamois was very uncomfortable. The seams were rough and the whole thing tended to fold in half and give me a front and back wedgie.
