Why We Like The Competizione Limited Edition Bib Short
With the Competizione Bib Shorts, pro-level Castelli quality need not come at a pro-level price tag. The Competizione features much of the same technology as their higher-end offerings, like a KISS Air2 insert and Giro4 leg grippers, making it comfortable for long and short rides alike. The main panels use Castelli’s Vortex fabric for optimal breathability and comfort, while the bibs are a more open mesh to ventilate well beneath a jersey. Castelli uses a tighter Lycra for better compression, stretch, and rebound, where there’s more movement when pedaling. The KISS Air2 insert’s perforated padding and seamless upper keeps cool air moving through the short to ensure your comfort on the bike.

Comfy bibs, but small
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
the bibs run 2 sizes small... i normally get a medium, but i could barely get into the large and the straps were digging into my shoulders. the XL fit much better and i didn't look or feel like a sausage. i'll update this after i put a few hundred miles on them UPDATE: it's been a couple of hundred miles... i love these bibs. they are super comfy and i would totally get them again, but the suspenders will dig in a little if you don't pull them up enough. it's a small thing (ha!). i woulddefinitely get these again.

I'm a big Castelli fan. I have many jerseys and bibs from them. These bibs are 4" shorter than my other Castelli bibs. I'm 5'10" 160# and the large size were super tight in the shoulders. So sad. It makes me question buying more Castelli products. These were a swing and a miss... plus I have to pony up the $7 to return them :(.

Great bibs, but run 2 sizes small

Really comfortable bibs for 2-4 hour rides. The thigh grips stay in place and are comfy. Shoulder straps are supportive, if delicate. Wash gently in cold water with limited detergent and hang dry to get the longest life. Size up 2x over what you normally wear. I had to get an XL, which gave me a bit of a complex. :-)

It does run very small but once to get the right size it’s very comfortable. I’ve worn it on a few 40+ mile rides and love it.

Runs too small
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
I read reviews that said to order up a size, so I did. I would say that ideally I should have ordered a XXL which is ridiculous. I’ll keep the XLs, but I can already tell that these won’t be my go to bibs for a long ride. Tight in the groin area and the shoulder straps dig in. My Pearl Izumis and Garneau are definitely more comfortable. The only thing I can say is they do look nice and I like the feel of the padding.

Great Quality, Runs Small
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Bought these as a gift for someone who would wear a M in most bike shorts, pants. Of course being a Euro fit , these run small. Went to a L, too tight in the bib/suspenders , XL ended up being the size, with still tight around the legs, good fit, bib/suspender slightly longer/more forgiving.

Great but small
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
Amazing quality and color. The material is high end and the chamois sits where it needs to be. The grip around the leg is fantastic. Unfortunately the fit is very small. I’m 5’8 170lb got size L. The compression in the groin is too much. Also could barely put the straps over my shoulders. Go one or two sized bigger.
