We have used the Castelli Velocissimo Due Shorts and understand that sometimes it is better to go strapless. Whether you are heading out for a long family ride and want to have some protection under your regular shorts, or you actually prefer having less fabric covering your torso particularly on hot days, you'll never regret wearing this version of the Castelli Velocissimo line because, simply, it's so darn comfortable.

They have done this by using all of the same comfort features while saving slightly on the construction. What you'll get is the seamless skin care layer that is made from a super soft brushed microfiber to maximize the luxurious comfort and perfect fit. Since it is seamless, there will be no worries about chafing, while the flexibility of the material will help the pad move with you as you jump to ...
