Castelli Free Aero Race S Bib Shorts

Castelli Free Aero Race S Bib Shorts

There are two very different things to say about the latest edition of Castelli’s updated performance favourite. Firstly Castelli has found even more free speed for its riders. A CdA reduction of 3% is achieved through a combination of Castelli’s Forza2 stretch fabric, ingenious seam placement, and aero optimisation features across the rider’s legs. Combined with the top-of-the-line features we expect from Castelli’s Rosso Corsa racing series, it’s everything a fast rider could want from their bib shorts.

The other thing to say is—have you seen the all-white version? Now we’re talking! Imagine winning a town sign sprint in those… What a statement. Certainly, they’ll need to be saved for summer best, but on those days, with your warm weather fitness at its height—well, you’ll feel like the Mathieu van der Poel of the Epping Forest club run.

Sidi Tiger 2S SRS MTB Shoes

Sidi Tiger 2S SRS MTB Shoes

Sidi has adapted its Grand Tour–winning Shot 2 road shoes for the rough demands of MTB racing and gravel riding. An off-road–specific, reinforced carbon outsole offers outstanding vibration damping and exceptional rigidity, sending every watt straight to the pedals. The Tiger 2S makes full use of Sidi’s renowned construction and materials, tailored for the world beyond the road.

The upper is crafted from high-grade BioVeg microfibre, which moulds to your feet over initial use, delivering a personalised fit. Integrated toe protectors fend off hidden rocks and roots, while a centrally positioned dual fastening closure system stays out of harm’s way and ensures aerodynamic efficiency.

ASSOS x ORTLIEB

ASSOS x ORTLIEB

ASSOS and ORTLIEB have joined forces, combining ASSOS’ elegant design with ORTLIEB’s resolutely practical construction. The frame, handlebar, and seat packs provide the utilitarian storage needed for a well-considered bikepacking setup while adding an eye-catching complement to your frame.

Most intriguing for us at Sigma Sports is the ASSOS x ORTLIEB Atrack Backpack. ORTLIEB’s Atrack is an IP67-rated waterproof pack with a unique full-length zip that opens from the back, allowing easy access to your kit without the rummaging required by top loaders. Optimised for cyclists, the removal of hip wings ensures unrestricted movement in the saddle, while the adjustable length lets your hips anchor the load instead of straining your back. Thoughtful additions—including a helmet enclosure, a hydration bladder compartment, and breathable straps—mean you’ll never have to wonder if a hiking rucksack will work for your riding adventures again.

MET Drone Wide Body TT/Tri/Aero Helmet

MET Drone Wide Body TT/Tri/Aero Helmet

The MET Drone Wide Body helmet shows just how far time triallists and triathletes can go in their quest for aerodynamic advantage. Rather than streamlining only the head, it also tackles turbulence around the shoulders. At typical flat TT speeds of around 50km/h, this design can save a race-altering 10 watts.

Although aerodynamics is paramount, safety and comfort remain key considerations. The wide shell maximises the effectiveness of the helmet vents improving airflow of hot air out through a large exhaust. An in-mould polycarbonate shell with an EPS liner absorbs and disperses impacts, helping protect your head in the event of a crash.
