FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for everyday cycling?
While they can be used for everyday cycling, they are specifically engineered with advanced protective features for more demanding sports like moto, BMX, and serious MTB riding.
How do I clean my G-Form MX Shorts?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Avoid bleach, fabric softener, and ironing.
What does CE 1621-1 certification mean?
CE 1621-1 is a European standard for motorcycle and cycling protective gear, ensuring a certain level of impact absorption and protection.
Will the pads be uncomfortable while pedaling?
No, the Smart Flex pads are designed to be flexible and form-fitting during movement, only hardening on impact.
How long is the chamois effective?
The integrated chamois is designed to remain chafe-free for over 4 hours of riding.
Can I wear other protective gear over these shorts?
Yes, their low-profile design allows for layering with other protective gear if needed, though they offer substantial protection on their own.
What should I do if the sizing seems incorrect?
Please consult the G-Form size chart and your measurements before ordering. If you receive a size that does not fit, refer to the return policy for exchanges.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or restrictive.
Consult the G-Form size chart and measure accurately. If still too tight, consider exchanging for a larger size as these shorts may run small.
Chamois causes discomfort on longer rides.
Ensure shorts fit correctly and are not bunching. Chamois comfort can also depend on personal preference and saddle setup. Consider using cycling-specific chamois cream.
Breathability feels limited in extreme heat.
While designed for breathability, extreme conditions may still lead to warmth. Ensure proper hydration and take breaks. The mesh construction offers the best possible airflow for this level of protection.
