FAQ

How should I care for these cycling tights?

Wash with simple detergents without additives using a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach to maintain the water-repellent properties and reflective elements. Hang dry or tumble dry on low heat to preserve the technical fabrics and chamois integrity.

What temperature range are these tights designed for?

The thermal construction is optimized for temperatures ranging from 30°F to 50°F (-1°C to 10°C), making them ideal for cool to cold weather cycling. The breathable materials prevent overheating during moderate exertion while maintaining core warmth.

Are the reflective elements visible from all angles?

The BioViz reflective elements are strategically placed for maximum visibility from multiple angles, particularly effective for side and rear visibility where cyclists are most vulnerable. The 100-meter visibility range ensures motorists can see you from a safe distance.

How does the Elite Levitate Chamois improve comfort?

The dual-density foam construction provides varying levels of support and cushioning where needed most, reducing pressure on sit bones while minimizing friction. The chamois is anatomically shaped to move with your body during pedaling motion.

Can these tights be worn as standalone pants?

Yes, the refined design and black color make these tights suitable for standalone wear. The lack of external seams and professional appearance works well for both training and casual cycling use without requiring additional layers.
