FAQs
How long can I ride in these shorts?
The dual-layer foam insert is specifically engineered for rides lasting 4 to 6 hours.
Are these shorts suitable for mountain biking?
While intended for road cycling aerodynamics, they can be used for mountain biking, though the fabric is not specifically reinforced against trail abrasions.
How should I wash them?
Hand wash with a mild detergent and air dry to maintain the integrity of the foam insert and moisture-wicking treatments.
Do these shorts have padding?
Yes, they feature a high-quality dual-layer foam insert designed for long-distance comfort.
Are there high-visibility features?
Yes, the shorts include Stay Seen accents to help increase visibility on the road.
Can I use fabric softener?
No, fabric softener will clog the pores of the moisture-wicking fabric and ruin the performance of the Coolmax material.
Troubleshooting
Shorts riding up during a ride
Ensure the gel gripper hems are clean of sweat and residue; wipe the silicone with a damp cloth if they lose grip.
Feeling damp or chafing after 3 hours
Check that the shorts are sized correctly and the bib straps are not too loose, which can cause the insert to migrate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your cycling bibs, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: These shorts are designed to fit snugly to ensure the pad stays in the correct position. Ensure the straps lie flat against your shoulders without twisting.
- Washing: Hand wash in cool water using a gentle, technical garment detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they degrade the moisture-wicking properties.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources or radiators. Never tumble dry, as high heat will damage the elastic fibers and the specialized foam insert.
- Compatibility: These are compatible with standard road cycling saddles. The polyester construction is durable but should be kept away from rough surfaces or abrasive debris to prevent fabric pilling.
