Product Information
Full details
The Endura MT500 Protector Undershorts II are designed for dedicated mountain bikers seeking a balance of high-impact protection and long-distance saddle comfort. These undershorts integrate advanced D3O impact-absorbing technology in key areas like the hips and tailbone while providing a moisture-wicking chamois for endurance rides. While they offer superior protection, users should be aware that the added padding may result in a slightly bulkier feel compared to traditional, non-protective cycling liners.

FAQs
Are the D3O pads removable?
Yes, the protective inserts can be removed to facilitate washing and ensure the longevity of the garment.
Can I wear these without outer shorts?
While technically possible, they are designed to be worn as liners underneath baggy mountain biking shorts.
Will these fit under tight lycra shorts?
No, these are intended for use under looser-fitting mountain bike gear due to the volume of the protective padding.
How does the Clickfast system work?
Clickfast is a series of internal snap buttons found on Endura undershorts and outer shorts that lock the two layers together for a seamless fit.
Is the chamois suitable for all-day riding?
Yes, the 500 Series Mountain pad is specifically engineered with reticulated foam to provide support and moisture management for long days in the saddle.
Troubleshooting
Shorts shifting during a ride
Ensure the Clickfast snaps are fully engaged with your outer shorts and check that the hem grippers are pulled taut against the skin.
Feeling discomfort from the protective inserts
Adjust the positioning of the undershorts; ensure the D3O inserts are centered on your joints and the waistband is sitting correctly on your hips.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Highly breathable chamois design
- Secure Clickfast integration with baggy shorts
- Durable nylon construction for longevity

Cons
- Bulkier than standard cycling liners

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify that the D3O pads align correctly with your hip bones and tailbone during your initial fitting. If you own compatible Endura outer shorts, align the snaps at the waist to utilize the Clickfast system for a secure fit. For care, it is recommended to remove the D3O pads before washing if possible, or use a gentle cycle with cold water to maintain the integrity of the technical nylon fabric. Always air dry the shorts away from direct heat sources to preserve the elasticity of the hem grippers and the shape of the chamois.
