Product Description
The Gabba R Jacket – R being short for race – has been crafted especially for racing in adverse conditions and is not only waterproof in most riding conditions, but light, stretchy and the most aerodynamic jacket that Castelli has ever made, acting as a rain cape and speed suit in one.Its impressive water resistance, which has prompted Castelli to label it ‘functionally waterproof’ in foul cycling conditions, is courtesy of a brand new, exclusive technical fabric that features a breathable and hydrophobic microporous external membrane.As well as keeping you dry during intense efforts, both inside and out, this featherlight fabric with its polyelastane backing can stretch to double its original dimensions in any direction and offer a phenomenally aerodynamic fit.The Gabba R didn't just test well in the wind tunnel against other jackets, although it was 4.5% faster than Castelli's best rain jacket, 3.5% faster than the long sleeved Perfetto and 2.5% faster than its predecessor. It also tested 1% faster than the racy Sanremo BTW Speed Suit, used by Team Soudal-Quickstep, in normal road positions at 37-50kmh, and just 1% slower in an aggressive, aero position.This jacket is furthermore fully windproof and completely PFAS-free, making it warm on gusty days and more eco-friendly than most performance rain jackets. It features a drop tail with reflective detailing, to fend off spray and enhance your low-light visibility, as well as self-draining pockets and low-profile, raw-cut sleeves that are tailored to fit over or under gloves, with stretch wrists to keep water out.Protective yet breathable, with an aero fit that nonetheless lets you move completely freely and add insulation layers underneath, this sixth generation of Castelli's renowned Gabba is a game-changer that takes weather out of the equation. It will be your go-to piece for training or racing in the wet and cold, completely replacing your rain cape.Key Features:A game changing foul-weather jacket that is Castelli's most aero everMade from exclusive fabric, created in partnership with ITTTAI®External membrane of electro-spun, microporous, air-permeable, hydrophobic polyurethaneNo external textile layerInner backing of 78% polyester, 22% elastaneFabric weighs just 125g/m², stretches to double its dimensions in any directionCompletely PFAS-freeSleeves are tailored to fit with gloves, without adding extra bulk at the wristDrop tail with reflective stripe3 rear mesh pockets for drainageYKK® Vislon® waterproof zipperFully packable, folds into own pocket to fit a jersey pocketBest used at temperatures of 4-18°C
