How to Buy Cycling Shorts

One way to ride a bike in comfort is to wear bike shorts. There are several different styles and brands of bike shorts. It is important to find the right kind that will make you feel comfortable for the type of bike riding that you will be doing.

The initial purpose of biking shorts is to cushion you while you are on your bike. If you ride for a long distance, then you need a pair of biking shorts that have more padding in them compared to someone who is only riding for a short period of time. The things you will need when you buy biking shorts are information on the brands of shorts available and the price you want to pay for a pair of biking shorts. You will also need a few different styles to try on in order to get the most comfortable fit for your body type.

Price is possibly the second thing that you would look at when buying biking shorts. There are some shorts that are close to, or over, $100. Then there are some shorts that are around $10. The less expensive shorts may serve the general purpose for what you are using them for, but after a few months they will probably begin to unravel and not be as better for you as the more expensive brand. To get the best deals on biking shorts, wait until the more expensive ones go on sale or clearance at the end of the summer season. You can get a quality pair of shorts for a fraction of the cost if you know when to shop.

When you try on a pair of shorts, be sure to try on a lighter pair and a heavier pair. There are usually two types of shorts that you can try on which are six and eight ounces. The eight ounce shorts are heavier and will provide more support for your legs. You also need to get the right shorts for either touring or racing. Consider the size and amount of padding of the shorts. Don't buy the first pair of shorts you see, and ask for help if you are unsure of what to choose.
