While we often like to remain in denial to being mere mortals, mother nature likes to remind us every so often with a solid knock off the bike, sending you careening into the trees for a little dash of humbling reality. These blows can be day-enders, or even season enders, or you can slide on a pair of 7 Protection Flex Short Liners before you hit the trail for solid protection that helps you get right back up again to keep pushing the limits of your superpowers. These shorts offer a compressive fit that hugs your muscles while you ride, but more importantly, polygon foam padding shielding your hips, thighs, and tail bone when you go down hard.
7 Mesh utilizes this polygon layout for the padded sections so that you can experience a natural flex and stride on the bike, moving with you with minimal restriction while still providing impact absorption. The padding is strategically placed to provide coverage in areas most prone to big hits, with emphasis in giving peace of mind and confidence to riders who have had previous injuries to the hip or coccyx. Carrying protection and comfort further, the shorts have an integrated chamois pad to give you cushion for long days on the bike. It uses multi-density foam to relieve pressure and reduce the chances of hot spots and chaffing, and flat lock stitching to keep irritating seams out of your way.
Pilot your slacked-out downhill rig with precision and unflappable confidence while wearing the 100% Men’s R-Core-X DH Pant. This downhill-specific pant is constructed of burly fabrics with a breathable mesh crotch to prevent overheating when you’re riding and racing in sweltering conditions. Tapered legs won’t snag in your drivetrain, while providing full range of motion required for blistering downhill courses and bigger jumps. It’s reinforced in the seat with stretch Cordura fabric that prevents ripping and fraying where abrasion is common.
Instead of the normal buckled ladder strap used by 100%, they’ve moved to Coheasive technology at the waistline, which is comprised of an integrated shock cord adjustment that tightens precisely for a fine-tuned fit without slipping. Additionally, you’ll find a hidden snap closure and zippered fly for making bathroom pitstops in the woods if necessary, as well as a convenient zippered pocket for storing an extra energy bar to fuel your downhill runs and training laps.
When you’re rolling up to the starting gate, performing your pre-race ritual, and visualizing your line ahead, it’s critical to properly prep yourself. Double check your tire pressure, your helmet, and make sure you’ve decked yourself out with the Yeti Cycles Enduro Shorts for durability you can rely on when the lines get a little hairy, but a lightweight feel that doesn’t hold you back. The Enduro Shorts make performance their utmost priority, with stretch polyester fabric that moves with you when you pump down steep rock faces, and a slimmer, race fit that won’t snag when you cut it a little too close to tree branches.
The shorts carry through with last year’s strategic paneling of stretch and supportive fabrics, giving you what you need just where you need it. Wicking material makes up the bulk of the shorts, to keep you dry when the pressure is on, and extra-stretch is given to the back panel for total comfort on the bike. This year the shorts received an update with an additional pocket, giving these low-profile shorts a spot to stash a multi-tool in case you’re riding self-supported and need to go to town on a quick trailside mechanical. The waist features low-profile tech webbing to help you dial in the perfect fit, while silicone grip hits both sides of the waistband to lock your shorts in place, and keep your jersey from sliding up your back when you’re hammering down the trail, chasing down the podium.
You’ve got your winter kit dialed with the warmest bibs, thermal jersey, and element-blocking jacket that money can buy, but don’t leave your digits as an afterthought. Wrap them up with the Gore Bike Wear Power Gore Windstopper Glove for wind-splitting warmth that keeps your digits dexterous when the temperatures dip.
The gloves begin with a soft and fleecy lining that traps heat and wicks away sweat, for the perfect warm foundation to build on. A durable polyester shell protects the back of your hand, along with a polyester-elastane palm that offers stretch where you need it, so you have flexibility to shift and maneuver on the bike. The palm also gets decked out with foam padding at the heel and forehand to absorb vibrations from rough roads. Between layers you’ll find lofty polyester wadding that adds a boost to thermal insulation, so you can retain warmth, while breathing and wicking away sweat, so you don’t end up with clammy hands. Because cold weather riding often happens during the months with short days and little sunlight the Power Gore WindStopper gloves have a reflective band along the fingers, so motorists can be made more aware of your presence, and your next move when they see you flash in their headlights.
Keep mountain biking-induced bumps and bruises to a minimum with the G-Form Pro-X Compression Shorts. Their proprietary RPT padding is soft and flexible for comfort when you’re riding but hardens instantly upon impact to protect your hips and tailbone when you take a slam. They also have a compression fabric that wicks sweat to keep you cool and dry.
Built to charge from rolling singletrack to chunky all-mountain lines, the Dakine Boundary Short is lightweight and ready to shred. They’re built from DWR treated polyester that sheds water and mud, while letting cool air in constantly, and still maintaining a knack for standing up to rogue branches and abrasion. To keep durability a priority, Dakine’s designers equip the shorts with welded seams that hold up to rigorous riding, and stay out of the way to avoid chaffing, while still maintaining lightweight construction for easy pedaling. On the hottest trail days you’ll appreciate the attention to detail in the Boundary Shorts, with inner leg mesh that lets cool air in constantly, and wicking fabric that pulls away sweat to keep you dry. To top it all off you’ll find a zippered side pocket for stashing your valuables, and interior waist adjustment tabs to dial in the perfect fit for a day on the bike.
While dry dirt and clear skies make for a great ride, they don’t happen too often for you. You don’t mind. You’ll leave the dry desert singletrack for others and take loamy, misty trails in the PNW any day. Showers Pass would too, and it’s why the brand created the Syncline Jacket. Named after a particularly lush stretch of singletrack in the Columbia River Gorge, the Syncline is designed to keep you dry on the inside and out on long rides in wet, misty conditions.
Featuring a 2.5-layer waterproof hardshell construction, the Syncline should feel far bulkier than it does. Instead, it’s breathable and highly mobile. As you lean into a banked corner or pedal hard into a slick climb, the fully taped fabric will seal out rain and wind without impacting your ability to move. Plus, reflective accents and heavy venting keep you both visible to other trail users on dim days, and able to breathe.
Rep the colors of your favorite team on your next ride with the POC Men’s Cannondale Drapac Team Jersey. Crafted from a stretchy poly blend, this jersey offers reliable flex to keep up with your fast movements on the bike, while also wicking sweat and drying quickly to ensure cool, dry comfort when you’re pushing yourself to the limit. Mesh side panels further promote breathability and flexibility, and the gripper cuffs on the sleeves lock down the fit to prevent annoying ride-ups.
The C5 Gore Windstopper Short Tights+ are ideal when you’re itching to get after it on a cloudy, blustery spring day or racing the sun home on a post work ride to blow off some steam during the fall. Featuring a Gore Windstopper membrane with water resistance, this short is windproof while remaining extremely breathable and providing durable protection against surprise showers and wet roads in variable weather conditions.
Its windproof, water-resistant membrane will shield your gams from consistent breezes and the fabric uses stretch technology so it doesn’t impede with your pedal stroke. Its Advanced Road chamois is specifically created to remain comfortable as the hours stretch on and its inclusion of its Windstopper Cup Technology, with its highly breathable and preformed windproof front, only adds to the comfort. The final details include the flat hem at the leg openings that provide a secure fit and comfort and a reflective logo which increases visibility in low light./p>
The hardest part of winter training is taking the first step out the door, leaving the comfort of your glowing fire and reaching into the frosty cold for your base miles. Etxeondo is there to make the transition a bit smoother, with the help of their Attaque men’s Bib Tight. Don’t let its simple and smooth appearance fool you, what these bibs lack in extra panels they more than make up for in elevated fabrics that offer compression and support when the mercury drops.
Etxeondo’s own Carbon fabric makes up the body of the Attaque Bib Tights, with exceptional wicking properties that pull away sweat and keep your skin dry. The fabric offers natural odor fighting, thanks to the carbon infused threads, so you maintain freshness throughout your ride. Compressive by nature, the fabric works to reduce lactic acid build up, improving blood flow, enabling those last rough miles and steep efforts to feel just a little bit easier. Etxeondo claims that their Carbon fabric features conductive fibers that absorb and dissipate the electrical charge produced during physical activity, meaning better heat transfer and retention in the fabric, and while we haven’t had a chance to test it out, it’s an exciting idea for those of us who spend our winters spinning in cold climates. Because of its conductive fibers, Etxeondo rates the warmth of these bibs as being ideal for temperatures from 32-to-54 degrees Fahrenheit.
The Attaque Bib Tights feature a Carbono Chamois, which offers multiple panels of indented memory foam. These panels move independently with the body, helping with even wait distribution and shock absorption. Your sensitive skin will appreciate the blend of carbon and microfiber fabric that gently brushes against you, reducing friction and improving moisture control to minimize hot spots. The chamois features a totally seamless construction to eliminate points that cause chaffing, so you can experience an irritation free ride.
When you’re planning on a wild day on the bike, strewn with berm-blasting, tail whipping, and charging into the occasional rock garden, you want to make sure to kit up with gear that can handle the trail, like the Scott Trail 20 Short-Sleeve Jersey for Men. Built with abrasion-resistant panels on the shoulder and waist, you’ll be ready to take on wild backcountry bushwacks and lift-access laps alike, while the stretchy and comfortable main body lets your skin breathe and wicks away moisture. It’s cut regular, with plenty of room to move fore and aft on the saddle, and features a zippered hidden pocket to keep your cards and keys handy while you ride, and a microfiber patch to freshen up lenses before bombing into rowdy descents.
POC’s Essential Enduro 3/4 Light Jersey makes the perfect partner in crime when the temps are soaring, and keeping cool is a priority. Its built entirely out of stretchy polyester micro-mesh that allows for maximum ventilation on the trail, without restricting movement while you ride. A relaxed cut allows you to toss body armor on underneath, and 3/4-sleeve length gives just a touch of extra coverage and protection to keep your skin covered when you’re weaving through tight tree lines that challenge the width of your bars.
Created for all-day downhill pursuits, the Dakine Thrillium Gloves provide you with a precise, almost-invisible feel that maximizes bar control. The stretchy, breathable construction hugs your hand for dexterity and comfort, while the Pittards goat leather palm adds durability and confidence. It’s a breeze to clear the sweat off your brow at the bottom with the microfleece wipe panel, and your car won’t stink on the drive home thanks to the anti-odor Polygiene treatment.
We’d like to set the record straight: the flat top isn’t just a hair style. It’s a classic design that’s been redefined by the Ryders Eyewear Seventh Sunglasses. Crafted with a crisp, semi-rim frame, these sunglasses feature fully adjustable hydrophilic nose pads and temple tips that ensures a personalized fit. The polarized, anti-fogging lenses provide crystal clear optical quality while simultaneously protecting your eyes from the sun. And thanks to anti-scratch and impact resistant qualities, these shades let you rally over rocks, logs, and pedestrians confidently.
