Midweight thermoregulation that breathes and repels water engineered for low-intensity off-road riding in cool wet conditions and equipped for adventure cycling and touring with easy-access integrated storage. The mercurial conditions of the shoulder seasons are especially challenging off-road so we engineered the TACTICA Spring Fall Bib Shorts T5 to combine technologies from the road-specific UMA GT line with durable versatility for riding beyond the tarmac. The RX EVO textile is a highly insulating breathable barrier against inclement conditions suitable for spring and fall during low-intensity riding on trails and gravel. Two thigh pockets provide additional storage for ride essentials and fuel unlocking longer days of exploration and the trickledown rollBar technology locks the gravel-tuned chatter-muting and trail-smoothing TACTICA T5 insert in place. Composition  Main Fabric 86%Polyamide 14%Elastane; Pocket Insert 70%Polyamide 30%Elastane The finer details FEATURED FABRICSRX EVO is a breathable thermoregulating textile with an ECO water-repellent treatment and a soft brushed inner face. The elastic elements are true black so they don’t turn white while stretching. The pockets are created with panels of K-Net a supportive breathable warp-knit mesh that wraps contents in stabilizing security.CONSTRUCTION/FITThe TACTICA T5 mobility-enhancing fit is less aggressive than our racingFit balancing streamlined low-volume aerodynamics with multi-hour comfort and less restriction off the bike. ENGINEERINGrollBar: A patented bracing design adapted from the Racing Series. Stabilizes the insert and locks it in place as your weight transfers while sprinting climbing and cornering. zeroPressure Waist: A soft highly elastic waist construction that improves comfort and hold at the waist minus any pressure or pinching. PILtec Plug-In: A lightweight ultrabreathable textile band across the leg opening. The microdot silicone treatment is invisible from the outside but stabilizes fit and maintains grip while wet. TACTICA T5 INSERT:   Shock-Absorb Damping Mono: A single breathable layer of 11mm of off-road comfort engineered to absorb the micro-shocks and vibration of gravel and singletrack. goldenGate 2.0: The insert is attached at front and rear with floating sides and center letting it move with your body rather than against it. New cut-outs on the sides reduce volume and friction throughout the pedal stroke. 3D Waffle: A patented three-layer perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
