Few know, however, that it also passes through a very important element found inside the shorts: the pad.

In fact, the protection of the cyclist on the saddle must be able to offer a comfortable environment, in which one can feel at ease, so as to be able to concentrate solely on the route. For the benefit of your own safety.
Anyone who rides a bike knows how important it is to use clothing and equipment suitable for the type of outing, temperature and route. Feeling safe, dressed in the right world, also helps to be more attentive on the road, to the full advantage of one's safety.
Part of the cyclist's feeling of confidence in the saddle, in fact, derives from his feeling at ease while pedalling. Not having to think about annoyances and pains due, for example, to an uncomfortable position on the bike, means that the athlete automatically concentrates only on riding: health and performance will also benefit.
In addition to choosing the appropriate vehicle, the most suitable helmet and clothing, the cyclist must therefore invest in the purchase of shorts that are correct for the type of anatomy, discipline, but also for the duration and type of path or road that he will have to travel .
And this is where the caseback comes into play.
A pad that is unsuitable for the athlete's anatomy and discipline is the cause of unpleasant consequences, discomfort and malaise. The product that is most in contact with the private parts of the cyclists* is one of the first things to take into consideration and to choose with knowledge of the facts: "How many hours will I ride?", "What type of terrain will I tackle?" are some of the main questions you should ask yourself when buying shorts.
For Elastic Interface®, the pad is a real interface that must respond to the stresses arriving from the ground during pedaling and must be elastic and flexible in order to accompany the athlete's movements. Its correct positioning inside the shorts is also of fundamental importance: often a few millimeters further forward or further back can cause discomfort because, if the contact with the saddle is not optimal, rubbing or annoying creases are created.
Hybrid Cell System (HCS): Exclusive Elastic Interface® system with a mixed cell structure that provides exceptional elastic return. The padding is thus considerably thinner and lighter than a gel, but also more breathable and resistant to wear, always guaranteeing high comfort even in the most extreme situations, such as in ultracycling.
The exclusive materials developed by Elastic Interface® with its partners are elastic in 4 directions and allow the design of chamois that adapt perfectly to the cyclist's movement, thus becoming the perfect "gregarious" in bike outings.
In fact, a good bike pad improves cycling performance and the athlete's health. Whatever the distances that the athlete intends to tackle and the type of route, there is the pad suitable for his needs: choosing a bike shorts of his size, with the appropriate padding for his anatomy and cycling needs, will increase comfort during pedaling, ensuring performance and concentration of the athlete in the saddle.
Relying on the brands that have chosen Elastic Interface® for their shorts when buying is a first guarantee when it comes to buying such an important garment. A further suggestion that can be given to the cyclist during the purchase phase is to try on the shorts and above all, based on the design of the protection, it can be checked online on the site www.elasticinterface.com what specific characteristics does the pad that the clothing manufacturer has chosen have? Thus, it will be easy to understand if it is for him/her or if it is better to opt for a garment with a different pad.
