FAQs
Are these tights suitable for winter riding?
These are 'Summer Tights,' designed for cool weather. They do not have thermal windproof membranes, so they are best suited for mild spring/autumn conditions.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No. Heat will degrade the elastic fibers and damage the chamois foam. Always air dry your cycling tights.
What does the B14 chamois feature?
The B14 is a high-density, multi-layer foam pad with four-way stretch, moisture-wicking technology, and an antibacterial finish.
Do these tights have pockets?
No, these are standard performance cycling tights focusing on a streamlined fit and comfort.
Is the fabric opaque?
Yes, the 220g Lycra fabric is dense enough to provide full coverage while remaining breathable.
Troubleshooting
Chamois feels uncomfortable or chafes during long rides.
Ensure the tights are pulled up firmly and the chamois is centered. You may also apply an anti-chafe cream for extra protection.
Ankle zippers feel loose or slide down.
The zippers are self-locking; ensure the zipper pull tab is pushed down into the locked position after fully zipping up.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Funkier RideFlo tights, it is essential to follow proper maintenance procedures. Always wash the tights in cool water on a delicate cycle to preserve the elasticity of the Lycra and the structural integrity of the foam padding. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the moisture-wicking fibers and reduce their effectiveness. When putting the tights on, ensure the chamois is properly positioned against the skin to avoid potential chafing. The tights are compatible with standard cycling shoes and can be easily worn with base layers or jersey tops without adding excessive bulk.
