SPITFIRE BIBSHORT
The Spitfire Race Proven Bibshort is part of Bioracer's core collection. Its shape and form is derived from their Race Proven bibshorts out of their teamwear range.
Don’t let the mimimalistic looks fool you. This pair of shorts is as good as it gets. It’s made of a very supportive blend of Lycra and its cut is tailored to provide extra support while riding in an aero position.
The mesh bibs, together with the wide elastic Powerband leg cuffs keep the bibshort nicely positioned. The integrated Vapor Men pad is the latest in terms of insert technology.
Vapor Men Pad
The Vapor pad is part of Bioracer's newest generation of pads, and it’s a big step forward in terms of breathability and damping. Main research question during development was: how can the damping bee improved to cope with the stiffness of carbon bikes without adding more material to the pad? The result: Vapor Technology.
The pad materials consist of a friction reducing, breathable top layer. 2 middle layers provide breathability and moisture transport. The main layer is where the magic happens. Bioracer use Evapore, which is a 3D webbing with better damping qualities. When put under stress, Evapore changes into a rubberized state, so even when it’s compressed to the maximum, it still provides damping. Moreover, this material is hydrophobic, meaning it transports perspiration. The pad remains dry at all times.
The benefits are obvious:
+ The pad remains compact.
+ Lower center of gravity on the saddle, more control of your bike.
+ Stability on the saddle is improved.
+ Better power transfer, less bulk.
+ More support with only 30% of the material.
