"The fit of these shorts is spot on for riding comfort and performance. They even look cute when I'm not in the saddle. And I love how light and stretchy the materials are." - Gearhead(R) Expert Alex With on-trail performance and an in-town aesthetic, our Backcountry Slickrock 9in Bike Short + MTB Linerkeeps us sending and slaying. The featherweight material bends to our whim and breathes easy, daring summer's heat to slow us down, while the zippered pockets stop our keys and cards from bouncing out. We equipped this pair with a removable liner that provides a compressive fit for better blood flow and gives our sit bones extra padding for those longer rides. And the longer inseam ensures there's no skin-baring gap above our knee pads. Once we're off the trail, we remove the liner and wear the Slickrock Short all on its own for a pub-ready look to down obligatory post-send brews.
