Competitively tuned bib shorts for cross-country racing and training with more speed than baggies and far more durability than Lycra.

Sticks and stones shred lightweight bib shorts, and theyre often unavoidable obstacles on trails. Our XC Bib Shorts balance the breathability and stretch of our road bibs with the thigh-girding protection of ripstop panels on the outer legs. The final construction is the result of prototype testing on the legs of our World Cup riders, who swept the 2017 team standings while assuring us that these are the most breathable abrasion-resistant bib shorts theyve ever worn.

TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW

THE FINER DETAILS

FEATURED FABRICS

The dyneRope tex mapping the outer thighs is 15 times stronger than steel. Calling it abrasion- or cut-resistant is an understatement. We also engineered some mechanical stretch into the woven material, and the main body of Type.429 Titanio adds additional race-fit stretch and support in less exposed areas.

CONSTRUCTION/FIT

We adapted our road racing approach to fit, creating a compressive, aerodynamic silhouette that feels restrictive while on foot but becomes a second skin in the riding position.
