The Castelli Sorpasso ROS Bib Tight is a high-performance winter cycling garment designed for dedicated riders who demand warmth, flexibility, and protection in cold conditions ranging from 0°C to 12°C. Utilizing advanced Nano Flex 3G fabric and a premium Progetto X2 Air seat pad, it offers a professional-grade fit and superior comfort on long-distance rides; however, its specialized technical fabrics require careful hand-washing to maintain their water-repellent properties over time.

These bib tights are engineered for optimal performance in temperatures between 0°C and 12°C.
While the Nano Flex 3G fabric is highly water-repellent and provides excellent protection against road spray, it is not a fully waterproof rain shell.
It is Castelli's highest-end seat pad, featuring a seamless, multi-density construction designed specifically for maximum comfort on very long rides.
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the elasticized materials from degrading over time.
Yes, they can be machine washed, but it is highly recommended to use a mesh laundry bag, cold water, and a delicate cycle to protect the technical fabrics.
Apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) refresh spray specifically designed for cycling apparel and tumble dry on a low-heat setting if directed by the garment tag.
Double-check that the straps are lying flat against the skin and not crossed or twisted; ensure you have selected the appropriate size based on Castelli's specific race-cut sizing chart.
To ensure the longevity of your Sorpasso ROS bibs, avoid using fabric softeners or bleaching agents, as these can strip the Nano Flex water-repellent coating. Always wash the garment in cold water using a mild detergent and, whenever possible, hand-wash the item to protect the seat pad's structural integrity. When putting on the bibs, ensure the lie-flat straps are not twisted to prevent pressure points on your shoulders. The ankle zippers are compatible with standard winter cycling boots and overshoes; simply ensure the zip is fully locked down before starting your ride to prevent rattling or snagging.
