FAQs
What is Ride Fit Pro?
Ride Fit Pro is a technology engineered by Dare 2b that enhances aerodynamics in the riding position. It aims to minimize volume and bulk, allowing for greater endurance and comfort.
How long can I wear these tights for?
The foam insert is designed to be suitable for cycling durations of 4 to 6 hours.
Are these tights suitable for very cold weather?
These tights are made from a soft, light fabric and are best suited for moderate temperatures. For colder weather, layering or a thicker thermal tight would be recommended.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the sizing guide provided by Dare 2b. The tights should fit snugly without being overly tight, allowing for freedom of movement and effective moisture-wicking.
Can I wear these for running or other sports?
While designed specifically for cycling with features like the foam insert and aerodynamic fit, the moisture-wicking fabric and comfort may make them suitable for other athletic activities where a close fit is desired.
What does UPF 50+ mean?
UPF 50+ indicates that the fabric provides excellent protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation, blocking at least 98% of UV rays when used as directed.
How should I care for the reflective details?
To maintain the reflective details, wash the tights inside out on a cool cycle (30°C) and avoid tumble drying or ironing directly on the print.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort from the foam insert
The foam insert may require a short break-in period. Try wearing the tights for shorter rides initially and gradually increase duration to allow the insert to conform to your shape.
Fabric not wicking moisture effectively
Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions, using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can impede wicking properties. Make sure the garment is not excessively tight, as this can restrict the fabric's ability to draw moisture away.
Reflective details peeling after washing
Follow the specific washing instructions carefully. Avoid high heat in washing or drying, and do not iron directly on the reflective print. Gentle washing cycles are recommended.
