Castelli Gabba R Jacket Long Sleeve - Black

The next generation of Foul Weather Race Equipment has arrived. The Gabba R is more protective and more aerodynamic than ever before. It's made to keep up with the demands of the pro peloton, where every watt counts. It's tested in the wind tunnel as Castelli's fastest jacket, so you know you aren't sacrificing any speed in order to stay dry. The waterproof stretch fabric fits close to the body without inhibiting freedom of movement. The sleeves are tailored to fit with gloves without adding any bulk to the wrist. Castelli has provided three mesh back pockets to store what you might need to access quickly in wet conditions, but the mesh makes sure the pockets can't fill with water and weigh you down. On the drop tail, which provides extra protection from road spray, they've added a reflective stripe for greater visibility. Castelli has again raised the bar for what Foul Weather Race Equipment should be.

Castelli's Rosso Corsa label is only applied to the highest-level products they make. Every thread and fiber, every curve and contour is obsessed about. Rosso Corsa represents a categorical breakthrough in cycling innovation and the meticulous craftsmanship you expect from Castelli’s performance-enhancing apparel.
