Northwave Fast Men's Bib Shorts - Black - XL

Northwave Fast bib shorts deliver race-ready performance with a multi-density chamois pad that keeps you comfortable through long days in the saddle. The ergonomic fit and breathable fabrics work together to manage moisture and heat, so you stay focused on the road ahead.

Advantages

These bib shorts feature Northwave's Freedom Pad, a multi-density insert (60/80/120 kg/m³) with 12 mm thickness for targeted cushioning and vibration damping. The main fabric blends 82% polyamide and 18% elastane for muscle-supporting compression, while mesh bib straps (80% polyester, 20% elastane) enhance ventilation. Silicone leg grippers keep the shorts securely in place, and flatlock seams reduce chafing during high-cadence efforts. Reflective elements improve visibility in low light, and the UPF 50+ rating shields your skin from harmful UV rays.

Suitable for

• Road cycling and gravel riding in warm weather
