First impressions after a 50-mile ride: These bibs are very comfortable, made from a lovely, stretchy material. The pad works well for me—no soreness at all after the ride. The only downside is the straps; they feel a bit flimsy, and I can see them potentially tearing over time, similar to my experience with other Castelli bibs. I probably could have fit into a size small, but I opted to exchange for a medium for a bit more comfort.

Progresso seat as always extremely comfortable & fit well with my bike fit. Love the feel and fit & ROS. I like a longer leg length which Castelli do. Have to say I'm Castelli always from starting road cycling 1990. Exceptional quality, colour choice and fit. I cycle 6 days a week indoors and outdoors. So Castelli very versatile too. Tights and shorts are always mens size small - back in 1990 only mens available where I purchased locally. I've never changed to women's as the men's fit is great. Also I don't like any seat pads that have sections that many women's cycling pads do have. It's very important to have the seating correct and then cycling can be done for hours day after day after day. Got steel blue colour.New season colour. I'd rather have 2 Castelli logos but these days it's one more often than not. The logo is the first thing I look at on all Castelli clothing.
