The TLD Ace shorts are Troy Lees premium XC shorts, with a fully featured outer shell combined with a slick padded lycra internal short for long days in the saddle. The knee-length outer short features a slim, fitted design that uses a 10% spandex mix to acheive a slightly stretchy and tapered fit. Compared to the equivalent Fox shorts, the Ace's are a slimmer design that are designed to move with your legs under pedalling. On the backside of the shorts there is a ribbed spandex panel that aids movement in the outer shell to maximise flexibility when moving around in and out of the saddle. Zippered vents on the front thighs and vented holes on the inside of the crotch increase air flow even on the really hot days.
The integrated lycra inner short is removable when you need to wash it seperately, and allows you to use the outer shell on it's own or with your regular cycling bib nicks. Though after you've tried the padding in the Ace shorts, you may see no need to use your old inner shorts, as the 4-way stretch lycra and multi-level chamois are super comfortable and maintain the snug and fitted design theme of the shorts.
From Troy Lee Designs:
"Everyone knows the old Star Wars is better than the new Star Wars, right? The wings of the Tie Fighter inspired the zip detail on the Ace Short, and just like Darth Vader, this short is badass. If you're setting out on a ride and you don't know what you're going to find, whether it's the weather, the climbs, or the terrain - this is the short you want to be wearing: Ace is the ultimate MTB short".
