Description of Sombrio Rev Mountain Bike Short - Men's:
Sombrio’s Rev Moto Race Short is their ultimate offering to DH racers, with abrasion-resistant stretch nylon, mesh venting, and a neoprene-padded rear waistband. Avoiding heavy, stiff Cordura in favor of lighter (but still tough as hell) materials means you pedal faster in the flats and sweat less. The rear panel of the Rev Moto’s adjustable waist is padded with neoprene, eliminating chafe from your spine protector.
Love 'em. They're long, tough and stretchy. Just just breathable enough.I'm pretty tall (6'5"+) so these are a bit on the short side for their intended purpose (DH) because they get hung up on the top of my pads. But for gnarly Vancouver XC riding (i.e. clipless and no leg armour), for me they're perfect.
Shorter riders shouldn't have the pad issues.
Rev shorts are the bomb. Stretchy with dwr coating (08s at least) velcro waist adjustment tabs are nice. Pretty much a race/resort short as it lacks a lot of pockets
