Excellent undershorts

by Anonymous user on 21/05/2019

Really comfortable under normal unlined shorts or track pants whilst commuting. Wash well and dry reasonably quickly.

Pad too thin and ineffective.

by Steve H on 14/10/2018

I've had 2 pairs of Altura Progel Liner Undershorts both for the last 3 years and they've been great, really comfortable. The pad on these Tempos is so thin you might as well just wear ordinary underpants. It is also a bad fit. If you want undershorts to do a proper job then I would recommend paying a bit more for decent pad.

Supremely comfortable

by Roger S on 20/08/2016

I've tried other padded shorts but none have been as good as these on 50+ mile rides. Well made and great value with speedy delivery. An excellent choice.

Under shorts

by Jason A on 14/04/2016

Nice shorts but they are more like a boxer shorts material. But if you wanting a better fit and padding go for Lycra cycling shorts.

Altura Tempo Undershorts

by Walter M on 21/10/2015

Really nice shorts, the lack of seams does make for a very comfortable fit. The padding is just right and gives that little added protection on longer journeys or using when commuting.Easy washing! Great quick service from Tredz

Altura Undershorts

by Colin M on 22/01/2015

Great pair of undershorts fit is good and seams are nice and flat so no rubbing. I use these to add a little extra padding when used with padded bib shortstights and they work great for this. Recommended.

Shorts Guide

Why do I need cycle specific shorts?

If you've ever spent a long time in the saddle you'll know how uncomfortable wearing casual shorts can be. They chafe, fit poorly and offer little mobility. Cycling shorts make all the difference.

Padded Chamois

Most cycling shorts come with a padded insert known as a chamois. This insert relieves pressure in your sensitive areas and stops numbness.

Anatomical Cut

Bike shorts are anatomically designed, often with a longer and higher cut at the back for when you’re in a riding position. This means you have a far more comfortable ride.

Lycra shorts will be snug with some stretch for aero performance and mobility. Casual baggies offer maximum freedom of movement for demanding trail riding.

Technical Fabrics

Cycle shorts use performance fabrics such as lycra and nylon.

Lycra is quick wicking to help transfer moisture away from the body.

Nylon is bombproof for durable riding.

These fabrics offer some stretch for added mobility and flat stitching is smooth against your skin to reduce chafing.

Added features such as Teflon coating or Ripstop improve durability.

What types of shorts are available?

Lycra shorts | Ideal for road cycling

Lycra shorts (and bib shorts) offer the best comfort in the saddle. You wear these directly next to your skin – no underwear.

Lycra is quick drying and worn close against the skin meaning the chamois stays in place as you ride.

Leg grippers also help to keep the shorts in place.

Bib shorts | Ideal for road cycling

Bib shorts are similar to standard waist high lycra shorts. However, you also get supporting shoulder braces.

As there is no waist line to dig in to your stomach they are more comfortable. Bibs are pulled taught ensuring the chamois stays where you want it.

Baggy shorts | Ideal for mountain biking

Baggy shorts are popular because of the more casual style which also keeps your modesty in check.

Baggy shorts are more durable with fabrics designed not to rip and tear from branches or debris.

Slip knee pads under these shorts for extra protection. Plenty of pockets are ideal for stashing tools and nutrition.

Not all baggy shorts come with a pad but you can easily fit a pair of padded undershorts underneath.

Undershorts | Ideal for mountain biking

Undershorts are thin liners with an added chamois pads. Slip these under baggy or casual shorts extra comfort and protection in the saddle.
