Short cycling pants
FIT FOR THE SUMMER WITH THE RIGHT CLOTHING
In our online shop, we offer you a selection of aerodynamically cut shorts for cycling racers and slightly wider models for mountain bikers. No matter which model you choose, the shorts all have a cut that makes them ideal for cycling. You enjoy full freedom of movement and feel very comfortable on your bike thanks to a breathable and moisture-regulating finish. The shorts are mainly made of synthetic functional fibres that dry quickly and are very light on the skin. Mesh inserts further improve air circulation in some models. Flat or minimised seams prevent friction and skin irritation.
SHORT CYCLING SHORTS FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ON THE ROAD
Traditionally, cycling shorts for racers are cut close to the body. This has the advantage that you offer less resistance to the air and thus make faster progress. Breathable seat pads ensure comfortable riding even over longer distances. The tight cycling shorts stay in place thanks to compression, elastic cuffs and mostly silicone adhesive coatings. You can combine the shorts with leg warmers in changeable weather to protect your calves from the cold. They can also be combined with other cycling shorts without any problems. Tights that are especially suitable for this are equipped with loops for attaching to the overtrousers.
THE RIGHT BIKE SHORTS FOR FREERIDERS AND RECREATIONAL CYCLISTS
Off-road bikers have completely different needs than racers. Their sport involves a casual appearance. That's why the bike shorts for mountain bikers are cut wider. The shorts do not stick to the skin and are often made of an elastic 4-way stretch material. To be suitable for off-road use in any weather, the short bike shorts are available in water-repellent and windproof versions. If you like to ride with a seat pad, simply pull the tight, padded shorts underneath. Bike shorts are particularly robust and hard-wearing. Visually, they resemble conventional Bermuda shorts with buttons, flaps and practical pockets. Velcro and zips as well as a stretchy waistband allow for optimal adjustment to your body shape.
THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF CYCLING SHORTS
A pair of short cycling shorts is ideal for warmer days and offers hardly any disadvantages when the weather is right. The only thing to consider is whether short bib shorts would be an alternative because they fit better. It is clear that shorts that only reach the knee can be too cold in cool weather. However, most cycling shorts can easily be extended with leg warmers if necessary.
ADVANTAGES:
- Full freedom of movement
- Breathable
- Skin-friendly fabric
- Sweat-wicking
- quick drying
- available in wind- and water-repellent versions
- good UV sun protection
DISADVANTAGES:
- calves are unprotected from flying insects and the sun
- too cool in suddenly colder weather
