Pockets, PI Dry® tech, and Levitate® PRO chamois; premium utility for gravel adventure
Named to Gear Patrol's list of Best Cycling Bibs - Awarded "Best Blend of Comfort and Utility". These bib shorts are designed for rugged gravel or tarmac that stretches to the horizon. We took the popular Expedition Bib to the next level with our all-new PRO Levitate chamois and luxurious Italian PRO Transfer fabric. Low profile cargo pockets on the thighs and two small rear pockets provide easy access to smartphones and snacks, and the flexibility to wear any top you prefer without worrying about carrying capacity. Designed with an drop-tail to make nature breaks quick and easy. Plus, we added our water shedding PI Dry® technology to the shorts to shrug off tire spray and light rain. There is no finer choice for long haul adventure.

USE SIMPLE DETERGENTS WITH NO ADDITIVES Never use detergents with fabric softeners, perfumes or any additive type product. The general rule of thumb is the simpler the better. Many detergents with additives leave "surfactants" behind on a fabric's fibers that inhibit the technical performance. Typically the best detergents to use will have "Clear" or "Free" in their names. Don't pour the detergent directly onto the clothing, put it in the washer first, when you start the water. If something is not functionally working, but is not dirty, try rinsing it twice in warm to hot water. This will help get rid of the harmful surfactants. READ THE CONTENT CARE LABEL: On the inside of your garment, or on the hangcard, there are instructions for the care of that individual piece. On garments this will be on a side seam or back seam label. Follow those directions. On finer fabrics, use a "Gentle" cycle. Close all zippers, attach "hook and loop" closures on gloves YOU CAN USE THE DRYER, CAREFULLY: If you use a dryer be sure to use a lower / warm heat setting (Do NOT use a commercial dryer or a "Hot" setting). This will often restore the fabric and help the water and wind repellent qualities. If in doubt, hang the clothing to dry.
PRO Levitate Chamois
PRO Levitate Chamois
The pinnacle of comfort and performance, this chamois pad offers more support with better stretch and breathability than any on the market. The PRO Next-Gen Suspension Core® uses ultra-high-density layers to distribute your body weight over a larger area for more comfort, even deep into a ride when most chamois are packed out. It features our softest, highest stretch 1:1 Boundary Layer that moves with you in and out of the saddle to minimize friction. Whether you’re riding for one hour or twelve, nothing rides better.
LEVITATE CHAMOIS SERIES
The Levitate family represents our latest innovation in chamois technology. By combining a multi-density Suspension Core™, super-soft 1:1® Boundary Layer top sheet, and seamless Infinite Edge™ transition, the Levitate lets you float through road and trail chatter so you’ll never bottom out.
REDUCE FRICTION: Cycling is repetitive, so we use high stretch materials, soft face fabrics, and an innovative floating top layer to smooth the movement between your body and the saddle.
PROVIDE SUPPORT: While riding, a considerable amount of weight is concentrated on the sit bones, which are about the size of a quarter. Our suspension core design distributes this pressure evenly across a wider area to prevent hot spots and improve long-distance comfort.
KEEP SKIN DRY: We choose specialized, highly breathable layers to allow moisture to move freely away from your body, maintaining skin health and a chafe-free riding experience.
Pedal to Zero
Pedal to Zero
We calculated the Pedal to Zero number using the EPA’s estimate that a typical passenger car produces 404 grams of CO2 per mile. For example, our Rove Short creates the equivalent of 9.8kg of CO2*. Therefore, if you ride 24 miles instead of driving, you’ve zeroed out the emissions impact of the Rove Short. This knowledge can inspire us to change our behavior. *This information was calculated by PEARL iZUMi using the Higg Product Module 2.0 at Higg.org. It includes cradle-to-gate impacts only.
PI Dry®
PI Dry®
PI Dry® is a proprietary technology developed to enhance the performance and comfort of cycling gear. This technology provides a permanent water-shedding treatment that is applied to fabrics at the fiber level, making them resistant to saturation from rain or road spray. Unlike other treatments that can wash out over time, PI Dry® ensures that each fiber is coated with a hydrophobic treatment before the fabric is woven or knit, ensuring that the performance is built to last, not just seasonally but for the life of the garment. This feature is ideal for all-weather conditions, enabling riders to stay dry and comfortable in various climates, ultimately enhancing their riding experience and performance.
