Heavy rain doesn’t have to create a barrier against showing up for a training ride or bike race. Commitment to riding a bike despite bad weather is a trait many cyclists strive for. Castelli offers the Gavia Jacket to protect these committed cyclists in a wide range of temperatures of cooler, wet rides. Castelli engineers investigated every part of how to design a jacket to ensure a cyclist stays dry. The focus of the design was protection against wet, cold weather without compromising performance. The Gavia has a loser cut to provide more space for more gear if needed. For colder weather add in a Castelli cycling long sleeve jersey and even a Catelli base layer. The Gavia is made with a heavier-weight GORE-TEX® fabric to accommodate a more generous cut. Stretch panels on the side and around the shoulders also help to make up for the loser jersey. Despite having more space inside the Gavia cycling rain jacket, it won’t flap around. You’ll still feel fast on fast rides. Water protection is added with a long tail at back of the jacket that protects from wheel spray. The Covered YKK® AquaGuard® zipper is also waterproof. Two large pockets are easy to access as your hands are covered with heavy cycling gloves. While offering complete protection, the Gavia Jacket is still compact enough to store into your rear jersey pocket. Start out a wet ride wearing the Gavia Jacket or store it in a bag and bring it along on your next cycling adventure.
