"TAK thinks this flawless Bib Short design puts comfort and performance above anything else—whilst thriving in the most intense cycling conditions!"
These shorts are all about the fabric! The individual yarns are treated with a durable water resistant finish before being tightly woven, creating a fabric with amazing wind and water resistance. Made from a 4 way stretch microfibre, ashmei's bibs provide the ultimate compression combined with laser cut clean edges for a friction free ride. The Bibs have a pared down, ‘less is more’ aesthetic, but are definitely race-fit. Saving the best for last, though, perhaps their best feature is a bespoke high-density foam chamois which offers incredible comfort - especially over distance.
Stuart, the founder of ashmei, adds: “We chose the woven microfibre over a traditional knit, in order to bolster the stretch content. The issue with knitted structures is the volume of stretch that you can engineer into the fabric. This is why regular bibs have a gripper band to hold the hem in place, but if this doesn’t fit 100% perfectly it either allows air to billow up the legs or acts as a tourniquet that can make your thigh muscle fatigue faster.”
