These bib shorts are recommended for rides up to three hours, providing optimal comfort and support within this timeframe.
What type of cycling are these bib shorts best suited for?
They are ideal for road cycling, training rides, and sportive events. The design focuses on comfort for medium-duration rides.
How do I clean my Dhb Women's Bib Shorts?

What makes the VELOCE WOMEN chamois special?

Can I use these bib shorts for long-distance touring?

What is the fabric composition?
The main fabric is composed of 78% polyamide (nylon) and 22% elastane (Spandex), providing high stretch and durability.
Are there reflective elements for safety?
Yes, the shorts feature a reflective logo to enhance visibility in low-light conditions.
Troubleshooting
Bib straps feel too tight or too loose
Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the sizing chart. Bib straps are designed to be snug; if they feel excessively tight, re-verify sizing. If they are loose, the size may be too large.
Chamois feels uncomfortable after an hour
Verify that the shorts are the correct size and are positioned correctly on the hips. Ensure the chamois is centered. For rides exceeding the recommended duration, consider if more padding is needed for your personal preference.
Leg grippers are rolling up
Ensure the leg grippers are sitting flat against the skin and not bunched. Make sure the size is correct; if too tight, they might restrict circulation, but if too loose, they may not grip effectively. Ensure the leg is clean and dry where the gripper sits.
