Product Information
Full details
The POC Cadence Cargo Bib Shorts are engineered for endurance cyclists and road riders who prioritize long-distance comfort and need convenient, on-body storage for ride essentials. Featuring a patent-pending chamois with integrated gel inserts, these shorts excel at mitigating pressure points during extended sessions in the saddle, though their specialized cargo-focused design may feel slightly different than traditional racing bibs for those accustomed to minimal silhouettes.

FAQs
Can I wear these under mountain bike shorts?
Yes, their low-profile design makes them suitable as a base layer for mountain biking, though they are specifically optimized for road cycling postures.
Do I need to wear underwear with these?
No, these bib shorts are designed to be worn directly against the skin. Wearing underwear can cause chafing and negate the benefits of the chamois.
How should I wash the gel inserts?
The gel inserts are integrated and do not need special handling; wash the shorts as a single unit using gentle, technical fabric detergents.
Are the pockets secure enough for a phone?
The pockets are designed for essentials like energy gels, bars, or lightweight tools. While secure, test the fit for your specific phone model to ensure it doesn't bounce.
What is the primary benefit of the patent-pending chamois?
The primary benefit is the reduction of specific pressure points that occur during long-duration cycling, combined with gel inserts for vibration damping.
Troubleshooting
Chamois shifting during ride
Ensure you have the correct size and that the bib straps are not twisted; verify the shorts are pulled up high enough for a secure fit.
Fabric irritation after long rides
Apply a high-quality chamois cream before your ride to reduce friction and consider checking if the garment is too loose or too tight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity and performance of your POC bib shorts, follow these guidelines. Always put on the bibs by pulling the shorts up first, then sliding the straps over your shoulders. Ensure the chamois is positioned correctly against the skin to avoid irritation; these are intended to be worn without undergarments. For care, wash the shorts in cold water on a gentle cycle, preferably using a garment bag to protect the fabric and seams. Always hang-dry your bibs; avoid high-heat dryers as they can break down the elastic properties of the fabric and the integrity of the gel inserts.
