FAQs

Can these shorts be used for indoor cycling?

Yes, the breathable mesh and moisture-wicking fabric make them an excellent choice for indoor trainers.

Are these shorts intended to be worn with underwear?

No, cycling bibs are designed to be worn without underwear to prevent chafing and allow the chamois to function as intended.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the standard UK dress sizing, ensuring a snug, aerodynamic fit that does not restrict your breathing.

What is the primary material used?

The shorts are crafted from a blend of recycled polyester and elastane for stretch and durability.

Do these shorts have pockets?

The Vigor model focuses on a sleek, minimalist design and does not feature additional pockets.

How often should I wash these shorts?

For hygiene and fabric longevity, it is recommended to wash them after every use to remove sweat and salt buildup.

Troubleshooting

Chamois feels uncomfortable during long rides

Ensure the bib straps are pulled taut to hold the padding in the correct anatomical position. If discomfort persists, consider using a high-quality chamois cream.

Shorts riding up the leg during pedaling

Check that the gel leg grips are clean and free of lotion or sunscreen, as residue can prevent the silicone from adhering to your skin.

Fabric irritation or chafing

Verify that the shorts are sized correctly; if they are too small, the fabric may pull at the seams. Always ensure the bibs are worn directly against the skin without undergarments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your cycling bibs, always machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the elasticity of the fabric and the integrity of the chamois padding. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the shape and performance of the gel grips. Ensure you choose the correct size for a supportive fit, as the bib construction is designed to stay snug against the body without restricting your breathing or movement while in an aerodynamic cycling posture.
