They are finished with a raw-cut elastic gripper around both legs and a highly breathable, reinforced mesh fabric for the braces for incredible comfort. The GITevo seat pad is created with gel inserts offering superb impact protection also for long distance rides. The design is dedicated to the Critérium du Dauphiné and the legendary mountainous battleground in the south-eastern corner of France where the race takes place.
