The RITC Ares Speed Bib Racing Skinsuit Review

Tested by: Ibrahim Jalloh

What Does the Brand RITC have to say:

The Ares Speed is a high-performance racing skinsuit, designed to deliver maximum aerodynamics, fit, and thermal comfort during the most intense rides and long-distance races. Its construction is based on a precise panel mapping, featuring ergonomic seams and strategically placed cuts that follow the rider’s dynamic movements. This ensures optimal muscle compression and minimizes friction, even during maximum effort. The sleeves are made from a structured aerodynamic fabric, engineered to optimize airflow in exposed areas and enhance the body’s aerodynamic efficiency. Lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying materials provide perfect thermoregulation, making the Ares Speed ideal for road racing, time trials, or high-intensity training sessions

What does our reviewer Ibra say:

After months of training and racing in the RITC cycling one Piece Speed Bib, it’s become one of my favorite pieces of kit to ride in.

The fit is race-oriented without feeling restrictive, the fabric is lightweight and breathable, and the chamois has been exceptionally comfortable on long rides. Whether I’m training in Dubai or racing elsewhere, it has consistently performed well.

What I liked:

Premium Italian craftsmanship

Excellent aerodynamic race fit

Lightweight and breathable fabric

Comfortable on long training rides

Great moisture management in hot weather

What to consider:

The race fit is designed to be close-fitting, so riders who prefer a relaxed fit may want to size accordingly.

Like most premium cycling apparel, it’s an investment, but the quality reflects that.

Who is it for?

Competitive racers

Road Cyclists

Endurance riders

Anyone wanting a jersey that performs during both training and racing

When to use it:

One thing I’ve really enjoyed about the RETC jersey is its versatility.

I’ve worn it during hot summer rides in Dubai, early morning training sessions, and races, and it has remained comfortable throughout.

The breathable fabric keeps you cool in warmer temperatures, while pairing it with base layers or arm warmers makes it suitable for cooler conditions too.

In my experience, it’s a suit you can comfortably use throughout the year by adapting your layering to the weather.

Final thoughts:

Would I recommend it?

Absolutely.

If you’re looking for a jersey that combines comfort, performance, and premium Italian quality, the RITC jersey is definitely worth considering.
