We recently sent a pair of MT500 Waterproof shorts<\/a> to the folks at NSMB<\/a> for testing. After a few rides, they came back with a positive review and some very helpful feedback.<\/p>\n Andrew Major from NSMB is no stranger to riding in the rain, and no stranger to suffering through poorly-vented or inflexible waterproof shorts.<\/p>\n image courtesy of NSMB.com<\/p><\/div>\n “The MT500 shorts are very pedalable for a waterproof-breathable product and they are surprisingly stretchy. They’re not as flexible as non-weatherproofed shorts but they also aren’t like wearing waxed cardboard.” Andrew did have some complaints about the shorts- preferring the belt loops and longer leg length of the MT500 Spray 3\/4 baggy<\/a>, but overall his review was very positive, after months of heavy use.<\/p>\n image courtesy of NSMB.com<\/p><\/div>\n “So far this winter it’s been the short I need. Almost every ride.\u00a0I hate wearing gungy stuff so these shorts have been on a wash, dry, repeat cycle that rivals my shower routine and they look and stretch as new.” If you refuse to put your mountain bike away from the winter like we do, check out the full review<\/a> of the Endura MT500 Waterproof shorts at NSMB.com, then head to your local LTP Sports dealer who can get you all set up for wet weather riding<\/a>!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" While the rest of the country is snowed-in, the ‘wet coast’ is living up to its name.
