FAQs
Is this suit suitable for long-distance triathlons?
The Activate+ Sleeveless Trisuit is designed for comfort and performance across various distances. While the Tri-Lite pad offers good comfort for cycling, athletes participating in ultra-endurance events might prefer a pad with more substantial cushioning.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the ZONE3 sizing guide for accurate measurements. The suit should feel snug but not restrictive, allowing full range of motion.
Can I wear this for training as well as racing?
Absolutely. The durable recycled materials and comfortable design make it ideal for both training sessions and race days.
What is the main benefit of the recycled materials?
Using recycled materials reduces environmental impact by diverting waste from landfills and decreasing reliance on virgin resources, while still providing high-performance fabric properties.
How should I care for the leg grippers?
The silicone leg grippers should be kept clean. Avoid harsh detergents or prolonged exposure to heat, which can degrade the silicone. Rinse thoroughly after washing.
What makes the neck design 'updated'?
The updated neck design is engineered to provide improved comfort and greater freedom of movement, reducing potential irritation during swimming and cycling.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the ZONE3 sizing chart. While designed for performance, a proper fit is crucial for comfort.
Chafing during long rides
Ensure the suit is smoothed out and properly positioned. Apply a chamois cream to potential friction points if necessary.
Leg grippers slipping
Make sure the leg grippers are positioned correctly on the thigh. If the issue persists, check for any residue on the skin or the gripper itself.
Reduced breathability
Ensure the mesh back panel is clean and free from debris. Over time, detergent buildup can affect fabric performance; consider a garment rinse.
