FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Vita fabric?

The Vita fabric is lightweight (190 gr/m2), provides excellent coverage, feels soft and smooth, and is made with eco-sustainable regenerated Nylon thread, offering a thinner profile than standard knits.

Is the chamois suitable for running and swimming?

Yes, the CyTech Super-Tri S pad is specifically designed for multi-sport athletes, offering comfort and freedom of movement for both cycling and running. Its perforated design also aids in quick drying.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the detailed Dhb Clothing Sizing chart provided in the product information. Measure your chest, waist, hips, and inseam and compare them to the chart's measurements (in cm and inches).

Can I wear this suit for longer than a half-Ironman distance?

The CyTech Super-Tri S chamois is recommended for rides up to 6 hours, suggesting it is suitable for half-Ironman distances. For full Ironman distances, individual comfort may vary, and some athletes might prefer a dedicated long-distance chamois.

How should I wash the tri suit?

Machine wash the tri suit at 30°C (86°F) with similar colors. Do not use bleach and absolutely do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the fabric's elasticity.

What does the 'Super-Tri S' designation mean for the pad?

It indicates the pad is specifically engineered for triathlon performance, featuring a perforated, high-density foam for protection within a slim profile, combined with a flexible X-MIX stretch fabric platform for maximum freedom of movement.

Are the back pockets secure enough for a race?

The ergonomic mesh back pockets are designed to securely hold essentials like energy gels or small accessories during a race. The mesh material helps keep them in place.

Troubleshooting

Suit feels tight or restrictive.

Verify that you have selected the correct size according to the Dhb sizing chart. Ensure measurements for chest, waist, and hips are accurate. If between sizes, consider the next size up for a more relaxed fit, though this may slightly impact aerodynamics.

Chafing occurs during activity.

Ensure the suit is pulled on correctly, with no wrinkles or bunching, especially around the leg openings and seams. Flatlocked stitching is designed to minimize this, but proper fit is key. Hydration and anti-chafing cream can also be used in prone areas.

Chamois feels uncomfortable on the bike.

The CyTech Super-Tri S pad is designed for multi-sport use; ensure it is correctly positioned. For longer rides, consider if your saddle setup is optimized. The pad's flexibility allows for adaptation, but individual comfort varies.

Fabric losing elasticity or shape.

Follow the care instructions strictly. Machine wash at 30°C and avoid tumble drying, as high heat can degrade elasticity. Proper washing prevents premature wear.
