As cyclists continue to expand their horizons, and transition from pavement to dirt, gravel, and hardpack trails, the proper support and comfort from below increases drastically. The Expedition Bib Short from Pearl Izumi is tuned from top to bottom for these all-terrain adventures. Cut from a high-stretch Transfer fabric with moisture-wicking and compressive properties, these bibs offer a sleek fit for everyday performance. Super lightweight straps are laser cut so you’ll never feel them, though they do job to keep the short section in place, and the short features leg openings lined with silicone-printed grippers keep the leg sections comfortably in place.

At the "business" end, Pearl's multi-density Levitate™ Plus chamois provides fine-tuned support hours into any ride, so you can chase major personal objectives in comfort. The pad reduces friction for all day, unmatched support and comfort. It features features a multi-density Suspension Core™, super-soft 1:1® Boundary Layer top sheet, and seamless Infinite Edge™ transition, that all combine to deliver protection, support and ride quality. The key to the effectiveness on all terrain surfaces is the innovative, highly resilient Suspension Core, which has the capability to mitigate road chatter, significantly improving the riding experience. Whether you’re putting in big miles or simply prefer to ride in a t-shirt, the three-pocket bib design can replace, or supplement, storage of a traditional 3-pocket cycling jersey. When the pavement ends and adventure begins, this the bib that makes the boundary meaningless in terms of comfort and support.
