There is no better short for an epic day in the saddle (just like what they wear in the Tour de France)! Our ELITE bib top eliminates the feel of a waistband for all day comfort and gives you a secure fit with moisture-transferring Extra-supportive Sahara Micro-mesh lycra. The bib straps are an extra wide 2-1/2" to eliminate any pinching or slipping, and are cut high in back and low in front to form a cozy fit with a cooling air flow. The bottom is the same as our Men's ELITE short with our Compression-support Action nylon/lycra® fabric, ENHANCED 8-PANEL design, and our Elastic ELITE chamois to provide unparalleled support and comfort for your most demanding rides. Action fabric provides maximum muscle support while protecting you against the elements and unexpected trail or road hazards. Race-cut waist, low in front and long in back, for a secure fit while in a cycling position. Seamless inner thigh and full leg length to eliminate possible chafing with an ARTICULATED HIP angle that matches your riding position combined with 1" leg elastic for a pair of shorts that won't creep.
Price: $125
"I love the bibs shorts - outstanding comfort for me- I used them in a 400 km ride last Saturday (6 AM - midnight) - and plan to do the Cascade 1200 km ride in them."
"And I can tell you that, despite the great team gear that I have and use, when I do doubles I use Boure shorts and only Boure shorts. I know that I am faster because of the clothing."

**Fitting Note: Our PRO and ELITE shorts are designed to fit you specifically while in a cycling position, and subsequently, will feel loose in the rear end and low in front when standing upright and trying them on for fit. Please hop on your bike, bend forward to the handlebars, and then check their fit in your riding position.
To Measure your Hips With feet together, measure around the fullest part. To Measure your Waist Measure around waist at the height you normally wear your pants. Alternatively, use your dress pants size. To Measure your Inseam Measure pants that fit well from the crotch seam to bottom of pants. Alternatively, use your dress pants size.
*All measurements taken close to the body, and not over loose clothes*

Frequently Asked Questions
1. I saw a review of your products and they talked about your chamois being thinner than others. Can you explain to me the differences in your chamois inserts and how they work?
3. I recently finished a 460 mile bike ride in six days. I developed saddle sores that got infected and the last couple of days were miserable. I'm trying to find a solution and everybody has ideas. I'm currently trying a new saddle and have adjusted the way I sit in the saddle.
