The Endurance Bib Short by Castelli is a new addition to the Castelli family for 2010. And in my opinion, the greatest addition. Yes, the much-hyped Castelli Body Paint Bib Shorts are great, but I’d take the Endurance Bibs over them if I had to choose (and I’ve got both pairs).

Selecting the Perfect Pair of Cycling Shorts; for You
Posted in Cycling Apparel Info., Cycling Information, tagged apparel, Bib Shorts, cycling, upgrades on April 21, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
One of the toughest questions to get asked is, “What shorts (or bib shorts) should I buy?.” Honestly, I have no idea. We’ll figure out, but right now I have no idea. I have no idea for several reasons: I don’t know what saddle you’re riding, I don’t know where you’re positioned on your saddle, I don’t know if you like a more compressive Lycra or less compressive, I don’t know the type of leg-gripper you’re used to, I don’t know what brand you’re happy (or not happy) with, I don’t know the inseam length you’re used to or like, and I definitely don’t know of the make-up of your gluteus maximus.

Lance Armstrong has the Midas touch when it comes to getting Americans psyched about cycling; Team RadioShack being his most recent touch of excellence. Once Lance won his first Tour de France wearing the UPSP kit, all of sudden everyone and their brother was wearing it on the local group ride. Next it was the Team Discovery kit that everyone was wearing. Then came LIVESTRONG. Not only did he bring the ruckus to the cycling industry, he brought the $1 cancer-benefiting wristband to the world! Now Nike and Lance are delivering the yellow-banded goods to athletes and non-athletes alike.

t’s that time of the year again — spring! Well, maybe it’s not exactly spring yet, but I know it’s around the corner when all the new spring/summer cycling apparel starts to roll in. Basically, it’s like Christmas around here. Besides seeing the samples months ago, this is the first time we get to see a lot of the new apparel items for the summer of 2010. New fabric technology, new colors, new chamois’, new leg grippers, new bib strap designs, new…everything! [I swear the bike clothing industry is advancing faster than any other textile business.]
2010 Castelli Body Paint Bib Shorts — Review

I’d say I’ve worn the Castelli Body Paint Bib Shorts between 8 and 10 times. My first thoughts were, “Man, these are lightweight” and “Man, I’m showing a lot of thigh.” That said, I am 6’2″ and have an inseam that would put giraffes to shame. As I got used to the feeling of wearing [...]

The Assos FI.13 S5 bib shorts are not just another pair of shorts you wear on your bike, they are the ultimate, uncompromising technological leader in cycling apparel. Now you may be thinking, considering the price tag they better be. And you may ask yourself, are they really worth it? I know I asked this same question. Well, the past few months I have finally had the privilege of riding a new pair of FI.13 S5 bib shorts, and I am a believer. You know they are special from the moment you remove them from their conspicuously extravagant packaging. Along with the bib shorts, Assos also provides you with the means to care for your investment. Inside you will find a wash bag and trial size containers of Active Wear Cleanser and Assos Chamois Cream.
