  • It's perfect for keeping you at a comfortable body temperature without having to resort to long shorts.
  • With an optimal temperature range of 10 to 20°C, it's the perfect choice for those days when the temperature doesn't yet demand full coverage.

Why do we love it?

It's not a simple bib short; it's a performance garment. The stretch lycra with microfleece inside provides excellent thermal sensation and freedom of movement. In addition, the WR water repellent treatment allows it to withstand light rain without losing its breathability.

Details that make the difference

  • Protection in variable climates: It is ideal for fall or mild winter days, adapting perfectly between 10 and 20 ºC, when you need thermal protection without excessive coverage.
  • Wind and water resistance: Designed to cope with cool weather conditions, these shorts are made with a WR treatment to repel water and maintain good thermal regulation.
  • Optimized comfort: Two-panel construction and heat-sealed outer seams minimize friction and provide an enveloping feel. With chamois pads Elastic Interface® Graphene, designed for long distances, its graphene fabric manages moisture and fights bacterial growth, ensuring comfort for many hours.
  • Details designed for every mile: From the temperature-regulating, odor-repellent graphene shoulder strap to the higher, double-layer waistband for a perfect fit, every detail is designed to give you the best performance on your rides.
