   Hi, could someone please help me with speedsuit 2.0 sizing? I wear size L in castelli shorts and jerseys - my podio jersey is a nice snug fit (not too tight). I have read that the speedsuit is a very small size so i wanted to check before ordering if I should choose a size L or Xl? I am 183cm tall and around 87cm chest.

   
   

   Thankyou
   Chris

   Hi Chris!
   This is a difficult question.
   I can only tell you my personal sizing.
   I own a 2010 CTT skinsuit - it was the first time the bodypaint technologie was introduced (as far as I can remember).
   Mine is size Small as all my other castelli clothes (including Aero race shorts and Aero race jersey).
   The suit will feel very tight and uncomfy whilst standing (especially at the top/chest/shoulder), but it's a fantastic fit once you are laying on your aero bar.

   Hi Chris!

   
   

   Update:
   I just got the new Bodypaint 2.0 speedsuit (LS).
   It's a fantastic suit, fits perfectly and comes with some kind of "wing suit technologie" (you may remember the discussion during season break 2010/2011 with PI).
   I recommend to go for the same size as for your other castelli jerseys and bibs if you want to benefit from the aero advantage.
   Remember: It's designed for pure racing and to fit tight!

   Anyone noticed the new TT suit of Team Garmin yesterday?
   Seems to be a development of the current piece with new aero longsleeves (split of fabrics, different placement of seams at shoulder, chest).
   Looks quite futuristic.
   Any official statement?

   Hi Chris!
   It's cool that the 2013 suit is already available. Nice new colors.
   I can't wait to get the season started again, but my first TT will only be in April.
   Better doing some intervals by then. :-)
