FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for indoor cycling?
Yes, but they are optimized for outdoor use with cargo storage. They will perform well on an indoor trainer, though you may find the mesh pockets unnecessary.
Can I use these with any jersey?
Yes, these are unisex in style and pair perfectly with any cycling jersey; the cargo pockets simply provide extra storage if your jersey pockets are already full.
How do I determine my size?
Castelli gear is known for a 'race' fit. We recommend checking the Castelli size chart and potentially sizing up if you prefer a less compressive, more relaxed fit.
Are the pockets secure enough for a phone?
Yes, the mesh pockets are designed to be expandable and secure. However, ensure the phone is placed securely within the pocket to avoid any bouncing on rough terrain.
How long will the KISS Air2 seat pad last?
The longevity of the pad depends on mileage and care, but with proper cold-water washing and air drying, it will maintain its supportive properties for many thousands of kilometers.
Troubleshooting
Shorts riding up during a ride
Check that the silicone leg grippers are clean and free of lotion or sunscreen, as these products can cause the silicone to lose its grip.
Visible stretching or sagging of pockets
Avoid overloading the mesh pockets with heavy items; redistribute weight to a frame bag or saddle pack if necessary.
Skin irritation in the chamois area
Ensure the shorts fit correctly and consider using a high-quality chamois cream to reduce friction during rides over three hours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Castelli Unlimited 2 Cargo Bib Shorts, wash them in cold water on a delicate cycle using a mild detergent; avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Always hang them to air dry to protect the elasticity of the Lycra and the structural integrity of the silicone grippers. For the best fit, ensure the chamois is positioned correctly against the skin without undergarments, as the KISS Air2 pad is designed for direct contact to prevent chafing.
