Women's Bib Short & Short Guide
avril 13 2024 – Giordana Cycling
Cycle in Comfort on Every Ride
Designed for the Pros, Made for You
Our WorldTour proven bib shorts are worn all season long by the Team BikeExchange and Astana - Premiere Tech.
From training days to race day, FR-C Pro and NX-G are the pinnacle in performance and comfort.
NX-G Bib Short
Gradual compression, micro massaging, and the secure, comfortable fit of the NX-G Bib Short is achieved through the revolutionary 1on1™ Paneling System and proprietary graduated compression fabric.
Fit
The super compressive fit and fabric combine with a longer leg length that eliminates the need for leg bands.
Shorter Inseam
The regular length NX-G bib short’s inseam of 10 inches decreases to 8. This length is perfect for cyclists who want to work on their tan lines, for riders of a shorter height, or with a shorter femur length.
Technology
Using one single piece of fabric, per leg, the 1on1™ Paneling System maximizes compression and aerodynamics and eliminates unnecessary seams. The proprietary graduated compression fabric targets specific muscle groups. Perforated bib straps enhance breathability.
Chamois
The women’s specific Cirro S-W is specifically designed for the NX-G bib short and features aloe vera infusion at the nano level plus a four-layer construction that includes a hydrophobic foam layer to repel moisture.
*Available in both regular and shorter inseam length
FR-C Pro Bib Short & Short
Available in both a bib short and short, premium level, lightweight and breathable FR-C fabrics combine with our Body Clone technology to create a second-skin fit that's designed for the Pros and made just for you.
Fit
Like all bib shorts and shorts, FR-C Pro should fit snug. They use Body Clone technology and are cut on a curve after all. The HC50™ Power Lycra is some of our most compressive fabric and makes these perfect for training days and race day.
Shorter Inseam
The regular length FR-C Pro Bib Short’s inseam of 10.5 inches decreases to 8.5 while the FR-C Pro Short starts at 10 inches and decreases to 8. These shorter inseam lengths are perfect for cyclists who want to work on their tan lines, for riders of a shorter height, or with a shorter femur length.
Technology
FR-C Pro bibs and shorts are made to ride day after day. The 190 E woven elastic leg cuffs hold the bibs in place without squeezing or restricting, seat panel specific fabric resists abrasion, and the supremely stretchable and stabilizing bib uppers offer a free range of movement while sprinting out of the saddle.
Chamois
The women’s specific Cirro S-W is specifically designed for our top tier bibs and shorts. It features aloe vera infusion at the nano level and a four-layer construction that includes a hydrophobic foam layer to repel moisture.
*Available in both regular and shorter inseam length
FR-C Pro Bib Knicker
The selection of fabrics creates a versatile bib knicker to keep you riding in early spring, into peak season, and with enough protection for those early fall temperatures.
Fit
Based on the FR-C Pro bib short, its paneling, and exclusive Body Clone technology, the FR-C Pro Bib Knicker is cut on a curve and features the compressive and durable HC50™ Power Lycra.
Technology
Just above the knee, lightweight mesh extends down to the soft 190 E woven elastic cuffs that fall around mid-calf and hold the knickers in place without squeezing or restricting. Seat panel specific fabric resists abrasion, and the supremely stretchable and stabilizing bib uppers offer a free range of movement when getting out of the saddle.
Chamois
The women’s specific Cirro S-W is specifically designed for our top tier bibs and shorts. It features aloe vera infusion at the nano level and a four-layer construction that includes a hydrophobic foam layer to repel moisture.
Lungo Bib Short & Short
Specifically designed for the refined rider who wants a technical bib short or short with a slightly less aggressive fit. The soft material offers comfortable compression perfect for casual rides, gran fondos, and bike tours.
Fit
The Lungo’s paneling is based off the NX-G and uses a similar fabric, just with less compression. A more forgiving fit is achieved through its core system that provides maximum comfort around the waist and hips.
Technology
Soft and tall leg bands are held in place with a gentle honeycomb patterned interior that allows the bib and short to remain stable without being restrictive. A version of the NX-G’s one panel, one seam per leg, 1on1™ Paneling System creates a race style fit worthy of all day riding.
The Lungo Short features a unique yoga inspired wide elastic-free waistband which crosses at the back for a comfortable secure fit and scoops slightly at the front to fit perfectly while riding.
Chamois
The Lungo collection features the women’s specific Cirro S-W, features aloe vera infusion at the nano level, and a four-layer construction including a hydrophobic foam layer that repels moisture.
