Gore Wear C5 Gore-Tex Active Trail Pant - Men's

Unlike your buddies, who find themselves the nearest pub and mountain of nachos when the storm breaks out, the Gore Wear C5 Gore-Tex Active Trail Pants don't let rainfall stop them from having fun on the trail. Instead, they shed the water and wind so you can keep riding in the worst conditions that get thrown your way, from a winter fat biking blizzard to spontaneous summer downpours. They are crafted from Gore's Active fabric, for a softer and quieter feel, boosting comfort while you ride, and are cut with plenty of room for layering underneath, should you need extra warmth during the frosty months, or want to be able to ditch the pants for shorts when the sun comes back out.

The secret to these pants lies in the Gore-Tex membrane that repels water and wind while you ride, without hindering breathability. It pairs with the polyamide shell to keep water rolling off of you, while still allowing vapor to escape from inside, so crushing a climb doesn't leave you to wallow in a dank and sweaty pants. The pants pack down small, so you can toss them in your hydration pack and pull them out for rides that go from sunny to rainy faster than you can say "I think we might want to bring rain jackets." The hem is adjustable to keep out of the way when you're mashing on the pedals, and a reinforced seat gives you confidence that you won't blow through the crotch when you hammer into a rock garden with a little too much speed.

Pearl Izumi P.R.O. Aero Full Finger Glove - Men's

Pearl Izumi's PRO Aero Full Finger Gloves are designed for the most speed-obsessed cyclists only. With a minimalistic cuff and no artificial parachutes at the finger openings, they eliminate as many drag-inducing transitional ridges as possible. Is that picking at minutiae? Maybe, but in the race of truth, every second, gram, and potential source of drag matter.

They're made to keep your grip confident and secure during the hot races of late summer, omitting any palm padding and opting instead for a synthetic leather palm to ensure sweaty hands don't send you sliding off the hoods. They're finished with a bit of aerodynamic texturing on the back of the hand, which Pearl claims reduces drag. While we lack the wind tunnel facilities to vet that claim, we do know that being glued to the drops during frantic finales definitely increases our chances of placing, and the low-profile wrist certainly looks the part of a racer's mitts.

Gore Wear C3 Thermo Tight - Men's

Keeping you warm on your bike without costing an arm and a leg is what the C3 Thermo Tight from Gore Wear is all about. The tight provides insulating warmth and comfort when the mercury takes a dive and its minimal bulk, thanks to advanced materials and fabrics, will have you out and getting in the base miles during the cooler so you can make next cycling season your best yet.

Gore constructs the C3 Thermo with flat-lock seams that reduce the chance of friction, irritation, and chafing. The crotch and center back area both receive an extra panel to protect against cold blasts of wind and road spray while the all-important knee area gets an additional layer of thermo-stretch material for extra warmth. An adjustable elastic waistband with a flat drawcord keeps the fit in check and the reflective logo and print help improve safety and visibility in low light.

Pearl Izumi Cargo Liner Short - Men's

Sliding the Pearl Izumi Cargo Liner Shorts under your baggies takes your ride to the next level, by providing the comfort you need to stay focused on the trail.

Side panels stretch to allow the shorts to conform to your legs, while the smooth fabric delivers a friction-free experience as it interfaces with your baggies during your pedal stroke.

Gore Wear C7 Partial Thermo 3/4 Bib Shorts+ - Men's

Dedicated cyclists don't let a cold fall wind or a bit of early spring precipitation keep them off the bike. After all, these are typically the seasons for building a base, and riding on through neighborhoods or woods during the coming and going of leaves is one of cycling's greatest pleasures. Based on their long-range ride design and the perfectly balanced combination of insulation, protection, and breathability, Gore Wear's C7 Partial Thermo 3/4 Bib Shorts+ is an indication that they recognize this too.

They feature Thermo lining fabric for insulating warmth and wind and road spray protection with a Windstopper Cup in the front of the chamois. This protects the areas where you're most likely to catch chilling air and spray while offering additional breathability for excellent comfort. Since the lining is brushed and offers a soft next to skin feel, your pistons will stay warm and dry during the duration of your ride. The bibs themselves are the one non-thermal area, and feature mesh which we appreciate for maximum ventilation as well as contributing to less bulk as we layer up under a jersey and winter jacket.

The C7's insert is designed for long rides and will keep you comfortable well past the five-hour mark. It contains dense foam padding that cushions the blows and wicks and ventilates for comfort in the saddle. The shape places most of the padding at the sit bones and reduces the bulk elsewhere to eliminate excess pressure. Gore uses optimal seam placement throughout to virtually eliminate friction and abrasion. You can focus on the scenery rather than counting down the miles back home because of an uncomfortable chamois or irritating seams. Reflective logo and print on the tights help keep you visible in low-light conditions.

The Gore Wear C7 Partial Thermo 3/4 Bib Shorts+ are available in five sizes ranging from Small to XX-Large in the color Black.

Transfer mesh fabric on the main body optimized airflow and draws moisture away from your skin when you're riding in hot conditions. A polyester and elastane blend on the shoulders and sleeves offers a wide range of movement when you're in the saddle for hours at a time. Three deep pockets in the back offer plenty of room for quick energy, while a full-length zipper gives you the freedom to make quick temperature adjustments along your journey.

Giordana FR-C Pro Bib Knicker - Men's

These knicks are its top-tier offering, designed with feedback from its sponsored Pro Teams and feature technical fabrics and a refined cut for the ultimate in performance and fit. Giordana contours the FR-C Knickers to fit perfectly while in the saddle, forming a second skin that eliminates puckered and creased fabrics for a better fit and aerodynamics while staying in place and following your every move and not hindering your range of motion.

These new FR-C knickers use its HC50 High Compression Power Lycra, providing the qualities and structure of compressive power Lycra, however, it retains that soft next to skin feel of the previous HC44 thread count Lycra. Inside, it uses its cozy Super Roubaix material featuring a thermal fabric with a brushed interior that's soft to the touch and retains your body heat with just enough protection for the knees, while preventing you from overheating when the pace or the temps pick up. Giordana further updates the knickers with new leg bands that expand for comfort while staying in place during the duration of your ride.

Some features are so good to begin with on the original FR-C knickers, we're glad they carried over. This includes Giordana's Core Contour System paneling that extends from the knees to the leg openings helping fight fatigue so you can push harder for longer. Finally, its premium Cirro OmniForm Chamois is supportive and helps to absorb road chatter and surface imperfections so you can focus on the ride instead of constantly shifting around in the saddle to find a comfortable position.
