Rapha Core Bibshort

The Rapha Core Bibshort is cycling apparel designed for road cycling and endurance rides. This bibshort features a compressive fit that provides muscle support during long rides while maintaining freedom of movement. Made from a durable, moisture-wicking fabric blend that effectively draws sweat away and promotes quick drying. The padding measures approximately 5 mm in thickness and is anatomically shaped for comfort on long distances, with strategically placed zones of varying density to reduce pressure points. The straps are made from a breathable mesh material that allows for ventilation while ensuring a secure fit. The leg bands use a silicone print pattern that prevents slipping without constricting. Available in multiple sizes with waist measurements ranging from 70 cm to 110 cm and inseam lengths from 25 cm to 30 cm depending on size choice. The fabric composition consists of 80% polyester and 20% elastane, providing both durability and shape retention. The continuous flat seam minimizes chafing and enhances the garment's durability. Designed for temperatures between 15°C and 30°C, suitable for spring, summer, and early autumn riding conditions. The minimalist design features subtle branding and is compatible with most cycling jerseys. The product weighs approximately 180 g in size M. Care instructions recommend machine washing at 30°C with similar colors and avoiding fabric softeners to maintain the technical properties. This successor model to previous Rapha bibshort designs offers improved fabric technology and refined patterning for enhanced comfort during extended use.
