Mavic Cosmic Ultimate SL II Bibshort – Black

Cyclists with a penchant for hard stages with long, hot climbs know exactly how much a lightweight, breathable bib short can increase riding comfort and performance. You also want strong muscle support and high seating comfort? Then all these are the top features of this revised, enormously high-performance bib shorts. Its predecessor, the Cosmic Ultimate SL Bib Short, was already highly regarded for its special material, good muscle support and first-class seat pad with just the right amount of cushioning and immediate saddle contact at the same time. For this revised version, Mavic has retained the highly supportive material and revised the tight seat pad to make it even more flexible. In addition, the cut pattern has been optimized, with “Raw cut” leg cuffs for a comfortable yet non-slip fit. The innovative fabric – made in France – , is 20% lighter than conventional knit fabrics. It also dries twice as fast as conventional knit fabrics and therefore impresses with superior moisture management. The revised Ergo Contact seat pad is based on a unique multi-layer construction of Ortholite® memory foam and offers a lot of support, although it is only minimal. It efficiently absorbs shock and vibration while providing direct contact with the saddle. Moisture management and flexibility have also been improved to give you more freedom of movement. The straps and the front part are cut “navel-free” to provide maximum ventilation in aggressive riding positions. And the one-piece legs sit comfortably thanks to the extra-light “Raw cut” construction and silicone grippers.
