FAQs

Can I wear these for long-distance endurance rides?

These shorts are engineered for rides lasting up to three hours; for longer events, consider shorts with higher-density endurance pads.

Do I wear underwear under these shorts?

No, these are designed to be worn directly against the skin to avoid friction and chafing caused by seams or excess fabric.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

The shorts should feel snug and supportive without restricting your range of motion or causing the fabric to pinch at the waist.

Are they suitable for mountain biking?

Yes, they can be worn under loose-fitting mountain bike shorts for extra comfort during longer trail sessions.

What is the primary material used?

These shorts are constructed from high-stretch Italian nylon, selected for its durability and flexibility during athletic movement.

Troubleshooting

Shorts riding up the leg while cycling

Ensure the silicone grippers are clean of sweat and residue; wipe with a damp cloth if they lose their grip.

Feeling discomfort or chafing

Verify that the shorts are being worn without underwear and that the chamois is properly positioned before beginning your ride.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent comfort for mid-length rides
  • Secure fit provided by silicone leg grippers
  • Improved visibility via reflective branding
  • High-stretch material allows for natural pedaling motion

Cons

  • Not intended for rides exceeding three hours
  • Limited to specific size ranges
  • Standard nylon construction requires careful laundering

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Dhb Cycle Shorts, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30 degrees Celsius using a mild detergent.
  2. Avoid Fabric Softeners: Do not use softeners as they can degrade the wicking properties of the technical fabric.
  3. Drying: Hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight; do not tumble dry as the high heat can damage the elastic fibres and the chamois pad.
  4. Fit Check: Ensure the shorts sit flush against the skin without gaps. They are designed to be worn directly against the skin without underwear to prevent chafing.
