Thank you! As a (mostly)Castelli buyer I find these videos a gem specially when I´m in the verge of getting a new item, cheers!

Glad you like them!

I use the Aero RC for mild winter riding (down to 5° C). When it gets colder than that, I pull out my Sorpasso. Best combination you could get to get through the winters in Flanders.
I do have a Sorpasso Wind version for worst-case scenario, but have only used it a few times for really cold commute rides and some freezing-start group rides.
BE AWARE: Once you start using the Progretto chamois, you don't want anything else!

Thanks for the comment! 100% agree on the use of the bib tights. I've also got a pair of the wind resistant Sorpasso's and usually only use them 1 time per winter.

Sorpasso is excellent was out in the snow last weekend in them and also crashed in them with barely a mark on them afterwards definitely get my vote.

[@SaddlebackCycling]

Great to hear! It's our favourite too in the winter months

One thing i noticed is that the Progetto X2 seems to fit better under the sitbones compared to the Kiss Air. Kiss air chammy is way to high on the back while the progetto X2 fits perfectly covering the the saddle with the thickest part where it should be. anyone experienced the same?

[@SaddlebackCycling]

Thank you for commenting! Our experience is that this is very dependant on the bibshort/tight as the pads will feel like they sit differently on different models.
