QUEEN K AND WIND TUNNEL TESTED Wind tunnel testing shows that an long-distance bike leg will go by almost 6 minutes quicker with the new T1:Stealth Top 2, compared to our sleeveless Free top. For version 2 we focused on improving the fit.
 The front is in a smooth stretch polyester fabric, while the back and shoulders use a specially developed dimpled fabric that helps the boundary layer of air detach from the body. The back blocks 94 percent of UV rays, providing reasonable race-day sun protection. Wear it over your sleeveless tri kit or, in hotter conditions, by itself, and you’ll be faster with the same effort. The fit is specific to the tri position to maximize aerodynamics without compromising weight and comfort. The top is meant to be worn on the bike only and features a full-length YKK® Vislon® zipper to help make it easy to put on and take off in transition. The T1:Stealth Top 2 is an absolute time saver for half- and long-distance races. The new T1:Stealth Top 2 is available in multiple color ways
 in men’s and women’s versions: T1:Stealth Top 2 Men   –   T1:Stealth Top 2 Women

aerodynamics, frederik van lierde, Free Sanremo Suit SS, short sleeve, short sleeved, Triathlon -

THE MOST AERODYNAMIC STYLE TO DRESS FOR AN IRONMAN Castelli has always been on the forefront when it comes to providing the most aerodynamic and comfortable clothing for athletes and introduced its first version of a short sleeved triathlon suit almost five years ago. The 2017 suit uses the famous Castelli Sanremo construction. That means, that the front is an overlap design with a full length YKK® Camlock® zipper. This has proved to be useful for quick and easy nature breaks during a race. The upper part consists of a more ventilated and elastic, fabric for increased freedom of movement for running. Regarding storage, two back pockets offer plenty of space for nutrition and two small pockets on the hip were added to stow gels or salt tablets for running. The concept is rounded off with the triathlon specific KISS Tri seat pad for highest comfort on the bike and is almost not noticeable for running. Discover all details and colour options
