ORHI HYDRO BIB SHORTS

The Orhi Hydro short is the result of the demands of our professional riders, who know the difference between winning or losing hinges on small details. When a rider faces a cold, rainy day, they need a garment that maintains body temperature but is also light and comfortable. If that garment has water-repellent properties, they know victory is a step closer.

We chose Etxeondos soft, lightweight Thermosystem Hydrorepellent fabric, modified with the addition of a revolutionary new ultra-thin layer of water repellent material, increasing protection in wet weather without compromising thermoregulation and breathability. To maximise water resistance, we reduced the number of seams and even chose to remove embroidery from the back of the short.

Llightweight fibres are quick drying, while the elasticated thigh increases in length to offer greater protection on rainy days, reaching as far as the knee.

We opted for the Urraki pad, the same model favoured by our professional riders. Urraki is a masterpiece of fabric engineering, developed by Etxeondo using a combination of visco-elastic pieces of different densities, placed carefully to maximise protection and comfort. As with all our chamois, we employ an antibacterial treatment but do not use any type of glue or stamping, to avoid allergic reaction or heat build up.

Reflective panels increase visibility and safety in low light.

Race-proven technology, for every rider. ORHI HYDRO
