Product Information

Full details

The Troy Lee Designs Lilium MTB Shorts are designed for female mountain bikers who prioritize durability and mobility on the trail. Constructed from environmentally friendly 4-way stretch fabric with integrated UPF 30+ sun protection, these shorts excel at handling long, intense rides in various conditions. It is important to note that this is a shell-only model, meaning no padded inner liner is included, so users will need to provide their own chamois if they prefer extra cushion for long-distance riding.

FAQs

Do these shorts come with a chamois?

No, this is a shell-only model and does not include an inner liner.

Are the pockets secure enough for a phone?

Yes, the shorts include three zippered pockets, including one specifically designed to hold a phone securely.

Can I wear these for cross-country riding?

Absolutely. The lightweight, stretchy fabric is excellent for cross-country and trail riding where pedaling efficiency is key.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Use the built-in adjustable waistband tabs to cinch the waist to your preference before starting your ride.

What is the benefit of the UPF 30+ rating?

The UPF 30+ rating provides a reliable layer of protection against the sun, reducing the risk of skin damage during long hours on the trail.

Troubleshooting

Shorts slipping during ride

Adjust the waistband straps tighter and ensure the silicone gripper band is clean and against the skin/base layer.

Debris getting in through perforations

The laser perforations are small, but if you ride in extremely muddy conditions, wear a taller sock or liner to block any ingress.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-durability construction suitable for aggressive trail riding
  • Excellent ventilation via laser-cut perforations
  • Secure zipper-enclosed pockets for essential storage
  • Adjustable fit system accommodates various body types
  • Environmentally friendly fabric construction

Cons

  • Does not include an inner liner or chamois
  • Black color may absorb more heat on extremely sunny days
  • Shell-only design requires separate purchase of under-shorts if padding is desired

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your shorts, use the integrated waist adjustment tabs to achieve a snug fit around your hips. Ensure the silicone gripper is in contact with your base layer or skin to prevent slipping. Because these shorts lack an internal chamois, they are fully compatible with any standard cycling liner or bib short. For care, it is recommended to machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Air drying is encouraged to preserve the elasticity of the 4-way stretch fabric and the integrity of the laser perforations. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the moisture-wicking and protective properties of the technical materials.
