Caring for your cycling gear properly will extend its life and maintain its performance, fit and quality. It’s important to consider these instructions carefully. While we stand behind the quality of our apparel, not adhering to these instructions will void our warranty against manufacturing & defects.
We strongly recommend washing your new gear before wearing it. You’ll find that your apparel will soften, and fit & comfort will improve after washing - especially with bibs & shorts.
Machine wash cool, 86°F (30°C) with like colors: Cooler temps maintain better longevity for your apparel. Like colors, especially lights, will remain more vibrant when washed with like colors.
Use mild detergent. Do not bleach or dry clean: Strong detergents & bleach can break down the fibers and elastane in the garment, dramatically reducing its life.
Close all fastenings: this goes also for other garments mixed in with your cycling apparel. Velcro closures or clasps can catch on stitching or trim and damage your garments.
Lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry: Do not put your cycling apparel in the dryer. Even on low heat. Don’t do it. Heat can damage fabric, elastic and heat transfer logos very easily. Lycra (Elastane) is used throughout our garments to provide compression and support and is susceptible to damage from heat and can irreparably damage your apparel.
FAQ

What is the inseam length of your bib shorts?
As a general rule of thumb, all of our bib shorts are designed to be as close to the same length as possible. Different fabrics have different fits and elasticity so this is not always an exact science. As a baseline, however, our Women's bib shorts are 26cm (10.2") from the center crotch to the leg gripper in size M, with +/- 1.5cm (0.6") per size grading. Our Men's bib shorts are 28.5cm (11") in size M, with +/- 1.5cm (0.6") per size grading.
What is the main fit difference between bib short models?
All of our bib shorts are designed to fit consistently across the size range, meaning if you wear a size L in our ONE Bib Shorts, you will also likely find the size L to be the best fit in our other bib shorts. In terms of fit, the main difference is the amount of compression each bib short offers. LUXE and CONCEPT provide the most compression. We hear often that these two look quite small and take a bit of effort to get on - trust us when we say it's effort well spent. ONE is what we'd call medium compression - still higher than most other brands, but not to the extent of the two mentioned above. Ultralight is a completely different feel due to the stretch woven lightweight fabric but maintains a high level of compression.
My bibs feel super tight when I try them on for the first time! Help?!
All of our bibs are designed for optimal fit on the bike. When trying on or wearing your bibs for the first time, try them on the bike (or mimicking on the bike posture) to feel an ideal approximation of fit. Different parts of the bibs will fit and feel more comfortable in the riding position vs. standing upright. Also, all of our bib shorts will “break in” after a few rides and washes, conforming to the shape of the rider. Hence, we offer our 30-Day Signature Guarantee for a complete test. The best bibs don’t feel perfect standing in front of a mirror - the design makes pedaling better.
Are the chamois the same in all your bib shorts?
We’ve developed several chamois for our line that are proprietary to Velocio. These have been developed over years of testing and feedback to be the most comfortable and supportive available for any distance or type of riding. Our endurance chamois has been refined since our launch and the latest iteration is a dual-density pad, incorporating an anti-vibration super high-density layer with a supportive high-density layer to create long-lasting comfort and support. It’s available in anatomically specific versions in our LUXE, ONE, and Ultralight bib shorts, with each bib short incorporating slightly different designs for their intended use. The CONCEPT bib shorts have a proprietary sewn-in chamois for race days. This innovative design is comprised of a multi-density padding for small vibrations to larger impacts. It has a minimal feel while maintaining maximum function.

The new bib short has lengthened by 3cm to land just above the knee and incorporates a narrow knit mesh leg gripper that holds everything in place while heightening breathability. The same stretch-woven ultralight fabric provides compression and support on the longest climbs and fastest descents. And an updates proprietary chamois eliminates hot spots and chafing.
FLYFREE

HOW TO USE
