Baggy

Serious off-road riders need a serious cycling short; one that's tough enough to stand up to a full day of trail abuse. That's the Rhythm Comp: a feature-packed shell made from a combination of lightweight, extremely durable woven fabrics and outfitted with a number of amenities including six external pockets, a detachable web belt, and zip-open side venting. Pair it with your favorite padded liner or fitted short, and you've got the ultimate off-road combination.

Just as stylish on the trail as off, the comfort fit Rhythm Short features a detachable, micro-mesh liner with Bontrager's Race inForm chamois. Articulated to conform to your body and move with, rather than against you, the Race chamois has multi-density padding that's strategically positioned to ease pressure points and eliminate discomfort. On the outside, the Rhythm includes two external web belt waistband adjusters, a zippered storage pocket, and velcro-closure cell phone pocket. The trail is calling. And Rhythm has the answer.

Combining the casual styling of a street short with the performance advantages of a cycling short, the Satellite is great for recreational riders who want the improved comfort of a cycling short without the tight-fitting, 'race' look of traditional lycra shorts.

inForm Chamois

inForm Chamois

There are a lot of charts and graphs, zeros and ones, and spreadsheets behind the inForm line of chamois. Why? Because accurately identifying pressure points on real subjects has enabled us to design a chamois with just the right amount of support in precisely the right places. We call that process "pressure mapping science and technology." Your butt will just say "Ahhhhh."
