Troubleshooting
Bib straps uncomfortable or digging in
Ensure the straps are crossed correctly at the back if designed to do so, and adjust the tension. Make sure the jersey is not bunching up underneath.
Shorts riding up at the hem
Verify that the gel gripper tape is clean and free from debris. Ensure the shorts are pulled up fully to engage the gripper.
Chafing during ride
Check that the flat locked seams are positioned correctly against the skin. Ensure the chamois is clean and dry. Consider using chamois cream for added protection on longer rides.
Chamois feels uncomfortable after several hours
While designed for 4-6 hours, individual comfort varies. Ensure the shorts are the correct size and consider if the chamois needs a short break-in period.
