Castelli Gabba RoS 2 Short Sleeve Women's Jersey in Light Black/Black

Castelli Gabba RoS 2 Short Sleeve Women's Jersey in Light Black/BlackThe Castelli Gabba RoS 2 Women's Short Sleeve Jersey is the fifth iteration of the legendary jersey jacket that debuted in 2010 and caused a sensation in 2013, when the pro peloton bought Gabbas with their own money prior to a stormy Milan San Remo. This break from protocol came about because the pro riders recognised that this fully windproof and essentially waterproof garment would offer a performance advantage when racing in the worst weather.

The Castelli Gabba RoS 2 Women's Short Sleeve Jersey is the fifth iteration of the legendary jersey/jacket that debuted in 2010 and caused a sensation in 2013, when the pro peloton bought Gabbas with their own money prior to a stormy Milan-San Remo.This break from protocol came about because the pro riders recognised that this fully windproof and essentially waterproof garment would offer a performance advantage when racing in the worst weather. Since that fateful spring classic, the Gabba has become a peloton staple, whether for foul weather racing or winter training, and although much imitated has never yet been bettered.Except by Castelli themselves, that is. This latest version is more water-resistant than ever, thanks to two different GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabrics. At the front is a brushed material with a water-resistant treatment, while at the back the fabric is stretchy and breathable, so that the jacket fends off rain and sweat build-up with equal skill.This new Gabba RoS has further been improved by an extra pocket for added storage space, better reflectivity at the back, a two-way zip for temperature control, and rethought placement of the taped shoulder seams for better rain protection.For over a decade now the Gabba has been keeping professional and amateur cyclists warm without allowing them to overheat while racing in foul weather or training in the spring and autumn. Typically worn over a sleeveless base layer and jersey, its usefulness can further be extended by pairing it with arm warmers and a thermal jersey as the cold starts to bite.Wear the unmistakable Castelli Gabba RoS 2 Women's jersey not only to keep your core warm, but to proclaim your allegiance to the world of cycling.Features:The 5th edition of the legendary Gabba, the pros' favouriteRain or Shine categorisation indicates wet weather protection is paired with breathabilityNow more water resistant thanks to brushed GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 205 fabric at the front, exclusive to CastelliLight, stretchy and breathable GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 203 at the backTaped seams now set further back on the shoulder for improved rain protectionCovered, smooth-running YKK® Vislon® zipper opens from the top or bottom3 roomy rear pockets for improved storage, with a reflective panel at the bottomWeighs 215g (small size)For use at temperatures from 9-16°C, 48-61°F
