Next-level comfort. Built for every ride.

Whether you're clocking daily miles or gearing up for a long weekend ride, the Altura Progel Plus Men's Cycling Bib Shorts are your go-to for lasting comfort and performance. An evolution of our popular Progel series, these bibs are re-engineered for an even better fit and feel.

The exclusive 3D Progel Plus pad—crafted with Italian materials—features dual-density foam and rooted gel to relieve pressure and maintain shape, ride after ride. Soft bib straps reduce chafing, while the high-wicking mesh back panel keeps you cool and dry as the miles add up.

Finished with subtle reflective touches for added visibility in changing light, these bibs deliver all-day performance without compromise.

Sizing 🤔

I ordered these as per your size chart in medium and at first they seemed a perfect fit however I have noticed that while riding they seem to ride up my leg

Great Bibshorts for XC Racing and road!

Great all round shorts with stretchy shoulder straps and light ventilated back. Don’t notice them when racing or riding.
I’ve gone for size small, fairly tall at 6,1” but fits perfectly.

Being a bigger gent I needed a new XXXL bib as

Being a bigger gent I needed a new XXXL bib as the old go to brand have now closed down. I was pleased to see I could get the bigger size bib and so far has been a perfect fit.

Comfortable so far.

Seem fairly comfortable, but I've only cycled a few 40 mile rides so far, nothing further yet. Pad seems to be good at protecting the more sensitive "bits".

Great value shorts, a bit shorter in the leg than I expected, but very good so far after cycle touring for a week

Comfortable ride and good fit

Delivered on time and in good condition.
Comfortable ride, good fit - could be perhaps half a size up. By size guide at 35" M should be the right size - so all good.

Finally a comfortable pad

This is the first bib shorts where the pad really works well for me. I have a size s and I'm a slim 5'10, 70kg man. The shorts are a perfect fit and were comfortable for over a 4 hour ride. (With stops and starts)

Perfect fit

Really good fit, quality and comfort.Cycling clothes are normally a ridiculous fit, but not all cyclists are created equally! We're not all 6ft and 60kg! At 5ft10 and 90kg a large fits perfectly.

Far too small

The shorts were were far too small in my usual size. There didn't seem to have any give to the material. Shorts were returned for refund.

Bum cushion

I'm back on the road bike and I used an old pair of shorts and let me tell you.....it was a bad mistake, tore the arse off myself! Bought these and tried them today, Brilliant cushioning and nice fit (medium 5' 8" medium build), also a reflective band around the leg. I just did a hour tonight and I'd say these are good for 2 - 3 hours. Worth every penny.

Ride up too much

These are OK but not great. Not as good as some £30 unbranded padded shorts I have. I bought the Large size as I'm 6 foot 1 but slim. They pulled up on my groin really tight so I got extra large instead. They still pull up like the shoulder straps are too tight or something. Also after a 6 hour ride I still got chafing where the seams are.

Propel Plus Bib Shorts Mens

Ładny wygląd ale...

Spodenki w relacji do ceny bardzo dobrej jakości. Polecam zakup większego rozmiaru niż ten który nosimy.Jeśli używasz XL zamów XXL. Dobry materiał, ładne szwy i wszystko byłoby idealnie gdyby nie jedno poważne ale! Albo to nie są męskie spodenki, albo wkładka została fatalnie zaprojektowana. O ile tylna jej część jest bardzo dobrej jakości o tyle przednia jest zdecydowanie zbyt mała. Nie chroni i nie utrzymuje praktycznie wcale części intymnych. Dramat. Dlatego najlepiej zakładać pod te spodenki bieliznę sportową, która pozwoli panować nad sytuację. Z tego powodu tylko trzy gwiazdki.

Best bib shorts for under £60

Well made and a great fit (true to size). Only used them for a couple of 50k indoor trainer rides but they were as comfortable after the rides as before.Bonus getting them for just over £40 on offer, but I'd happily pay £60 for another pair.
