Castelli Gabba Ros

Gabba Ros - a technical jersey designed for the worst conditions of the season

In 2010 Castelli introduced the Gabba for the pros and changed the way they race in the rain. And cold. And ride in training. Every other performance cyclist soon saw the need for a Gabba in his/her wardrobe.

They've made some minor updates along the way, but for the fourth-generation Gabba, Castelli’s team started with a clean slate to make a significant upgrade. That involved moving it to near waterproof levels, which meant developing a new exclusive Gore-Tex Infinium™ Windstopper® fabric. They made the front-facing fabric warmer with a light brushing, while the rear-facing fabrics are lighter yet more water repellent than the previous Gabba.

Castelli've made it better in the rain through seam sealing on the shoulders and a covered zipper. Based on Team Ineos testing they figured it's better to have two pockets that are easier to access with gloved hands, though they provide an internal sleeve to keep your pump or other items from moving around.
