The introduction of the Women’s FS260-Pro SL Bibshorts is a clear statement of intent from Endura, backing a commitment to providing pro-level performance road apparel for female cyclists. Having earned numerous accolades as a key part of the men’s collection, the addition of this industry-first puts the women’s range on a level footing with its male counterpart.
Endura’s determination to continually develop and improve their high-end road offering, working closely with Movistar Team among others, and an enthusiasm for creating market leading women’s products have been recognised by Women’s pro team Cervélo Bigla who have now partnered with the Scottish brand for 2016.
Team leader Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio comments: “It’s really great to collaborate with people with the same passion and desire. The kit is absolutely amazing. It’s really cool to have a sponsor that treats us the same as the men. We feel that we get as much attention from Endura as the men do and they feel really strongly about our potential and what we can do. We’re very excited to represent the Endura brand this year.”
The women’s FS260-Pro SL Bibshorts DS use Italian Power Lycra with coldblack® technology constructed in a multi panel, pre-curved race fit with a women’s specific high wicking mesh bib. They are finished with a slick, comfortable, raw edge grip-rib hem with super fine silicone grippers. One feature unique to the women’s version is Endura’s exclusive drop-seat (DS) zipped construction, facilitating quick and easy comfort breaks without the need to strip off jerseys and jackets. Most importantly, the Pro SL’s house the women’s 700 series pad, available in three width options offering an unbeatable body match. The Endura® gebioMized® PadFit™ system, a free fit service available at selected Endura dealers, matches each rider to the pad width best suited to their physique, riding style and saddle. The women’s 700 series pad has been developed with gebioMized® with further input from Endura’s female pro riders including Para-Olympian track cyclist Denise Schindler and long-course professional triathlete Beth Gerdes who freely admits: “Those bibs are my obsession.”
Beth Gerdes, winner of IRONMAN Switzerland 2015, says: “The FS260-Pro SL bibshort have changed my cycling life. On a ride longer than three hours, I simply cannot bring myself to wear another pair of shorts. The dropseat function has been incredible and helps me make just a quick stop along the road. The fit of the shorts is both flattering and functional, hitting in all the right places. The solution that the FS260-Pro SL bibshort provides — the comfort of bib shorts combined with the ease of traditional shorts — is simply unparalleled.”
Endura’s confidence in the comfort of this piece is backed up by a no quibble 90 day comfort guarantee, re-assuring consumers of the company’s bold claims.
