Our review

Fabric, fit and shape are among the best. A hot weather favourite

The Lycra on the Fastline is tightly woven and smooth, and the bib has a lightweight, open weave mesh and perforated lower back.The outer leg panels’ carbon effect weave looks good and is also extremely breathable. The simply shaped gel pad has a minimal depth and bobbled surface but it’s surprisingly comfortable.

These are one of our favourites for hot riding conditions. The fabric, fit and shape are among the best, cut long, down to the knee. A premium product from ‘Super Mario’s great new line.
