What characterizes a good pair of racing bike shorts?
Chamois
The heart of every bib. It should provide sufficient cushioning without adding bulk or causing chafing.
Fabric
Breathable, quick-drying and ideally with compression for better blood circulation.
Fit
Tight fitting but not constricting. Flat seams prevent friction.
Straps
Comfortable and supportive without being tight or slipping.
