Alé R-EV1 Agonista Plus Bib Shorts

The R-EV1 Agonista Plus Bib Shorts are body-mapped so each panel delivers just the right amount of support and breathability. For example, Air Cell Lycra features in the upper and sides, allowing consistent ventilation and the best breathability. Meanwhile, Mesh Dragon fabric is used where sweat-wicking is most needed, leaving you fresh and dry even during your most intense training and racing efforts.

The upper bibs feature raw cut 'Zero Friction' bib straps, with elastic bonded seams - they're incredibly flexible and soft against the skin. These straps form part of the complete 'Free System Bib' design, providing the ideal level of comfort and in use, you should barely know they're there and yet they provide the perfect degree of support to the shorts.

Next are the smooth leg grippers, these highly elastic Lycra leg hems hold firm, gently compressing the thigh while not exerting excess pressure. These are details that should be unnoticeable when riding - just how it should be - but are vital for luxurious comfort as you enter the pain of tough training sessions or forge ahead of the peloton.

8 HF seat pad

Inside the shorts is Ale's very latest 8 HF seat pad. Constructed with variable thickness and variable density foams, up to 8mm and 120 kg/m³ density in the perineal and ischiatic area, it gives incredible levels of support and comfort for any length of ride. A central relief channel protects the nerve endings for improved support, while the lateral shaped wings are flexible and follow the movement of the body while pedalling ensuring the highest degree of comfort even for the longest days in the saddle.
