From long endurance road rides to short sharp interval training and everything in-between, the Ebony Green Evo 2.0 Bib Shorts offer outstanding levels of muscle support and flexibility. Thanks to the light compression of the Vero fabric, your muscles are supported and gently compressed to encourage blood flow and push back fatigue. The anatomic, race-ready fit gives a smooth and streamlined fit and this is complemented by the aero-focused flatlock stitching. Primal have also endeavoured to reduce the number of seams too, not only smoothing airflow but also boosting comfort in the process. Laser-cut FlexPro Leg Bands ensure no slipping or riding up, just a wonderfully smooth finish across the thighs. Inside the shorts is Primal's superb E6 Carbon Chamois. With a 4 density, 4 way stretch construction, it's designed to form to the body, providing superior comfort and support on the saddle. Meanwhile, Resistex® Anti-Static Carbon fabric prevents abrasion and promotes blood flow.
Ride Hard. Ride Fast. You’ve worked hard all through winter, building your base, topping up your FTP and boosting your anaerobic engine. And with the Velocity HD2 Bib Shorts, you have a performance garment that maximises those gains. It begins with use of Ale’s wind-tunnel tested ‘Aero 3D’ fabric. The engineered jacquard structure works to deliver a significant reduction in drag, keeping you slippery through the air as your speed rises. But not just that, Aero 3D’s elasticity and recovery boost muscle compression, encouraging improved blood flow and venous return. Lightweight Comfort Complementing the aero fabric is lightweight ‘Speedy’ fabric. Thanks to its low weight it feels barely there while its excellent breathability keeps you feeling cooler and fresher when the pace increases. An orthogonal woven structure enhances durability and at the same time gives the ideal degree of muscle support and compression. Y-Air Bib System With their Y-Air Bib System, Ale has increased rider comfort by lessening the contact area between straps and skin. With more skin open to the air, both breathability and ventilation are improved, but thanks to the Y-shaped back, the short’s stability and position are maintained perfectly. Soft microfibre straps also promote a feeling of lightweight and freshness. Men's 8H+ EVO seat pad Using dual-density padding, the Men's 8H+ EVO seat pad gives superb comfort and support for rides up to and exceeding 8 hours in length. A true endurance product, maximum support is reserved for areas that feel the greatest pressure when you’re on the saddle. Elsewhere, lower-density foam keeps mobility high. Perforations maintain excellent breathability and airflow while flexible wings allow for easy freedom of movement as you pedal and for when you’re jumping in and out of the saddle for sprints and hill climbs.
If you love the challenge of big mileage rides or a mountainous Gran Fondo, the Women's GT 2.0 Bib Shorts are your perfect cycling companion. Ale uses a mix of performance fabrics in order to give perfect muscle support and compression alongside excellent flexibility for fluid pedalling. Premium Performance Materials Zaffiro and Matrix fabrics, both Lycra® Power materials, gently squeeze your hard-working muscles, encouraging blood flow and flushing out lactic acid, providing fatigue-busting support over long rides. Matrix, in particular, offers excellent abrasion resistance and is deployed in the areas of the short in contact with the saddle, boosting durability. Elsewhere, Ale uses their Mesh Dragon material. This micro-mesh is supremely soft and allows for optimal breathability. An Open Bib design also exposes more skin to the back of the shorts, allowing for greater sweat evaporation. When you’re pushing hard on the peals this will ensure you’re not left drenched in sweat. For rides that stretch from the low light of a summer morning to the glow of sunset, reflective leg grippers keep you visible on the road. Women’s 8HF Seat Pad Inside, the Women’s “W8HF” pad utilises an elastic microfibre with memory padding, strategically positioned at the saddle contact points for maximum comfort. In the perineal and ischiatic area, higher density 120kg/m³ padding ensures the very best support on the saddle and vibration-damped comfort across even the roughest of roads. Meanwhile, a central relief channel protects sensitive nerve endings while lateral shaped flexible wings follow the body for complete freedom of movement and comfort when pedalling
Rather than sit back and rest, the Ale design team have pushed to improve the performance of the Speedfondo Bib Shorts yet further. Making use of an innovative, ultra-matt, fast-drying fabric, the fit and feel of the shorts take a major step up. When you're facing into long mountain climbs or making the pace over cobbled roads, you can be confident that the Speedfondos are going to remain comfortable, even when lungs are burning and legs screaming from high-intensity efforts. All technical details have also been reappraised and improved upon, delivering extra muscle support and outstanding breathability. For endurance rides that stretch from early morning to late evening, reflective details keep you visible too. X Air Bib Construction The redesigned bib section Ale call their X Air Bib Construction. Using soft microfibre straps and a lightweight X-shaped back, this system minimises skin contact, leaving more skin open to the air. This allows for rapid sweat evaporation for greater comfort and freshness. The careful positioning of the straps also gives extra stability and holds your shorts in the optimal position at all times. AM Carbon Fibre Elsewhere, Ale deploys the anti-static and anti-bacterial advantages of their AM Carbon Fibre material in the upper layers of the seat insert. Dispersing charges accumulated during physical activity and accelerating sweat evaporation, this material contributes to extra comfort on the bike.

It's the 'Speedy' fabric that forms the supportive core of the Women’s Velocity Plus Shorts. While light in weight, this functional fabric offers excellent coverage and excellent muscle support. The orthogonal woven structure of the fabric also gives reliable recovery and flexibility, ensuring long-term durability and smooth, fluid pedal strokes. Mono-Bib Upper The mono-bib upper is designed to provide perfect support and stability, keeping your shorts comfortably in place as you move in and out of the saddle. A high degree of stretch also makes mid-ride nature breaks easier, without needing to completely undress. Ale Women's Velocity W8HF Seat Pad A female-specific seat pad, the Women's Velocity W8HF Seat Pad uses 12mm, 100 g/m² density, open-cell foam to give superb support and shock-absorption when you're on the saddle. Perforations throughout the foam gives significantly improved ventilation and breathability. When the pace is up and temperatures high, this ensures freshness, comfort and quick-drying performance.

At the ends of the legs, you’ll find the proven Mesh Stability System. An open-weave elasticated gripper, with internal silicone dots, gives a snug and secure fit. A reflective band to the outside also keeps you visible when riding in low-light conditions. AM Carbon Fibre Elsewhere, Ale deploys the anti-static and anti-bacterial advantages of their AM Carbon Fibre material.
