Product Information
Full details
These Endura Alltrack Bib Shorts in Black are designed for adult male cyclists seeking comfort and utility on off-road and gravel adventures. The key benefit is the relaxed fit combined with cargo pockets for on-the-go storage and a supportive, shock-absorbing pad. A potential caveat is the relaxed fit may not appeal to riders preferring a more compressive feel.

FAQs
What makes the 600-Series Pad special?
The 600-Series Pad uses Continuously Variable Profile (CVP) foam shaping and Serpentine lattice gel inserts to provide adaptive cushioning and shock absorption, specifically designed to reduce pressure and numbness on rough terrain.
Are these bib shorts suitable for road cycling?
While designed with off-road and gravel in mind, the relaxed fit and comfortable pad also make them a good option for general road cycling, especially for endurance or sportives where comfort is prioritized.
How do I clean the bib shorts?
Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Hang to dry away from direct sunlight.
Can I wear cycling underwear with these bib shorts?
Bib shorts are designed to be worn without underwear, as the pad is integrated. Wearing underwear can cause chafing and reduce the effectiveness of the pad's moisture-wicking and cushioning properties.
What is the 'Ride Fit' described as?
The 'Ride Fit' is described as a relaxed fit, tailored for performance and comfort. It's meant to be neither baggy nor tight, finding a balance that works for most riders on varied terrain.
How durable are the materials used?
The shorts use a combination of high-stretch Lycra and durable woven fabrics, designed to withstand the rigors of off-road cycling and provide improved longevity.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging in
Adjust the placement of the straps on your shoulders. Ensure they are not twisted and lie flat. Check that the bib shorts are the correct size.
Leg cuffs rolling up
Ensure the silicone grippers are clean and dry. If they feel sticky, gently wipe them with a damp cloth and allow to air dry. Ensure the shorts fit correctly around the thigh.
Pad discomfort
Ensure the shorts are worn correctly, with the pad positioned properly. Some riders may need a break-in period for the pad to conform to their anatomy. Ensure the size is correct.
Cargo pockets feel bulky
Distribute weight evenly between pockets. Avoid overstuffing pockets, especially with rigid items, to maintain comfort and a streamlined feel.
