FAQs
Can I wear this liner without outer shorts?
While the liner has a chamois for comfort, it is designed to be worn as a base layer under cycling shorts or pants for protection and modesty. It does not offer the same level of protection as dedicated outer cycling shorts.
How often should I wash the liner?
It is recommended to wash the liner after every use to maintain hygiene and material performance.
What is the intended use for this liner?
This liner is particularly suited for endurance riding and enduro disciplines due to its durable chamois, moisture-wicking properties, and cargo storage.
Will the leg pockets fit a large smartphone?
The leg pockets are designed for essentials like gels or tools. While some phones may fit, larger models might be a tight squeeze or cause bulk. Test with your specific device.
How does the fly opening work?
The unique horizontal fly opening allows for quick and easy access for bathroom breaks without needing to pull down your outer shorts and the liner.
What is the difference between the 3.0 and 4.0 Bib Liner?
The 4.0 Bib Liner offers more hours of support and potentially more cargo storage, indicating it is a more feature-rich option for extended or demanding rides compared to the 3.0.
Troubleshooting
Liner feels too tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the size chart and consider if the outer shorts are also contributing to the restriction. Ensure leg grippers are not folded.
Chamois discomfort after a short ride
Verify the liner is correctly positioned. Some break-in period may be required for the chamois. If persistent, consider if the gel chamois density is suitable for your riding style and duration.
Pockets feel insecure or items fall out
Ensure items are placed fully within the pockets and that the pocket openings are not overstretched. The silicone grip on the leg pockets helps secure items.
Material not wicking moisture effectively
Ensure the garment is clean. Body oils and residues from detergents can impair wicking properties. Wash according to care instructions.
