Less is more. Lots more. When Castelli started working on the Body Paint bib short in January 2006, they set out to build a short with all the components integrated into a product that is clean and simple, with the goal to make it practically disappear. Castelli had to revolutionize fabric construction, completely rethink pattern and fit and reengineer details like bib straps and logo applications. The resulting efforts garnered a finished product that can be described with one word. "WOW!"
New and improved. And tested obsessively. Improving the hugely successful Free Bib was never going to be easy. Castelli took it as a year long project with the Cervelo Test Team and made 5 rounds of updates and testing them with various riders.
Castelli didn't tell their testers that they were testing their mid-level short during the development of the Velocissimo short and the testers consistently compared it favorably with competitive short costing 3 times as much.
