Further developed for 2012 with the help of the riders in Team Radioshack Nissan Trek, the Craft Elite Bike Body Control Bib Short is a true Tour de France proven cycling bib, and one that offers the high mileage rider both sublime comfort and technical innovation.

Designed with a slight compression effect, the Craft Elite Bib Short allows for unhindered freedom of movement and muscle support through a 4-way stretch and exceedingly light weight fabric. Realising that many of your rides will naturally be in warmer temperatures, Craft have blended the Elite Bib with Schoeller Coldblack technology, a wonder material that not only resists the build up of heat, but provides protection from UV rays.

Like the bib itself, 2012 sees Craft's latest iteration of their Elite Pad - the same chamois used by the riders of Team Radioshack Nissan Trek. Constructed from Swiss Technology Carbon Elastic Fabric with a 4-way stretch that continually moves with the body, and with carbon fibers closest to the skin to aid effective moisture management, this Oeko-Tex anatomically molded and gender specific pad offers a level of comfort and breathability that makes even the biggest rides end in comfort.

Great Bib Shorts!

True to size

by Mark Rionda from United States on 16/04/2012

These bibs are great! The materials used throughout are all high end. The uppers are super thin, you barely notice that they are there. The lowers support and hug your thighs just right, making for a comfortable ride on long outings. The cut is shaped for the riding position, so don't expect a perfect fit while walking around. On the bike the anatomical cut is perfect! The chamois is one of the best I have used so far; not to thick and not too thin. The pad does a great job in wicking away moisture and stays in place during long rides. The elastic grippers are effective. There is a wide section of really thin, gripppy fabric that does an excellent job of keeping the shorts from creeping up your legs. I purchased a medium, when normally I purchase a large. Sizing chart says they run a little big and I found that to be true. While the medium fits a little snug at first, out on the bike it's the perfect fit. I'm 5'10, 180lbs, 34 in. waist. If you are looking for a high-end bib short, give this one a spin. You'll be happy you did!
