dhb BCN Aeron Womens Bib Shorts

Celebrating the partnership between dhb and the Black Cyclists Network, these bib shorts share their construction with dhb's Aeron collection. Their versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of cycling, everything from social group rides to racing. Every sale from the dhb x BCN collection contributes to BCN's community and outreach work to increase BAME representation in cycling.

How do you improve a classic? Built to last and ideal for a wide range of cycling, from commuting to long days out, the Aeron Bib Shorts have become the go-to option for thousands of riders. Now dhb have made the most of customer feedback and hours of testing to raise the bar again.

The upgrades include a custom chamois, enhanced bib straps and more durable grippers, while the main body of the shorts is made from Granfondo – a combination of two high-quality performance fabrics from leading Italian mill Miti Spa.

The first fabric delivers a stretchy, compressive fit to support your muscles and aid recovery, while the second provides excellent moisture transfer – wicking away sweat from your skin to keep you comfortable and ensure your body doesn’t waste energy trying to cool down.

Redesigned mesh bib straps feature carbon fibre to increase cooling and moisture transfer. They offer plenty of support and no restriction of movement, while a large rear mesh panel will keep you cool on warm rides.

Every element has been carefully considered, with the wide silicone gripper now more durable – to keep the shorts in place without being too restrictive.

Elastic Interface® Paris HP Super Air Women chamois

The Paris HP Super Air Women from Elastic Interface®, the Italian experts whose unparalleled knowledge and experience go into making the best chamois in cycling, has been designed with extra breathability making it perfect for long days.
