Product description
Sticks and stones shred lightweight bib shorts, and they’re often unavoidable obstacles on trails. Our XC Bib Shorts balance the breathability and stretch of our road bibs with the thigh-girding protection of ripstop panels on the outer legs. The final construction is the result of prototype testing on the legs of our World Cup riders, who swept the 2017 team standings while assuring us that these are the most breathable abrasion-resistant bib shorts they’ve ever worn.

FEATURED FABRICS
The dyneRope tex mapping the outer thighs is 15 times stronger than steel. Calling it “abrasion- or cut-resistant” is an understatement. We also engineered some mechanical stretch into the woven material, and the main body of Type.429 Titanio adds additional race-fit stretch and support in less exposed areas.

CONSTRUCTION/FIT
We adapted our road racing approach to fit, creating a compressive, aerodynamic silhouette that feels restrictive while on foot but becomes a second skin in the riding position.

Y7 frame carrier bibTech: the shoulder straps remain wide and flat so as not to restrict shoulder movement and to eliminate any creases under the jersey.
