FAQs
Are these shorts water-resistant?
The nylon construction is durable but not classified as fully waterproof; however, the material dries quickly after exposure to light moisture.
Do these shorts come with a chamois?
This specific model is designed as a shell and does not include an integrated chamois liner.
How should I measure for the right fit?
Refer to the size guide for UK dress sizing and focus on the waist measurement, as the race-ratchet allows for a customizable range within each size.
Can I use these for other sports?
Yes, their lightweight, stretchable nature makes them suitable for hiking and other outdoor activities, though they are specifically cut for mountain biking.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The zippered pockets are intended for small essentials; depending on the size of your phone, it may be a tight fit and is recommended to be stored in a jersey pocket or hydration pack.
Is the fabric prone to tearing?
The shorts feature a ripstop weave, which is specifically designed to prevent small nicks or snags from turning into larger tears.
Troubleshooting
Ratchet buckle feels stiff or sticks
Clean the buckle mechanism with a soft brush to remove trail dust and apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant if necessary.
Shorts feel restrictive during pedaling
Ensure the waistband is centered and the race-ratchet is loosened to allow for natural hip movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, utilize the race-ratchet closure after putting on the shorts to lock in your desired waist tension. These shorts are designed to be worn over traditional cycling liners or compression shorts depending on your preference for saddle padding. To maintain the structural integrity and technical properties of the nylon fabric, machine wash in cold water with mild detergent on a gentle cycle. Always air dry to prevent damage to the stretch fibers and the buckle mechanism. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the performance coatings and elasticity of the material.
