Product Details
The Specialized Foundation Bib Knickers deliver all-day comfort with extended leg coverage designed for cooler riding conditions. Built on the same breathable fabrics and refined trims as Specialized's acclaimed Foundation Bib Shorts, these knickers extend protection to the knees while maintaining the comfort characteristics serious cyclists depend on for long, demanding rides.
The 3/4 length cut provides meaningful knee coverage that shields against chill without requiring additional leg warmers or tights, making these knickers versatile for transitional seasons and variable cool-weather conditions. Plush elastic suspenders offer soft comfort against the skin while securely supporting the shorts, while a lightweight back panel enhances breathability and aids temperature regulation by reducing excess fabric density. An elasticated cuff with integrated silicone gripper provides a gentle, secure hold on the legs without creating uncomfortable pressure or restriction marks.
The Foundation Bib Knickers feature Specialized's Single Density Body Geometry 3D Chamois, which delivers lasting comfort across extended riding hours regardless of riding position or intensity. The thoughtful chamois design ensures consistent support whether climbing, sprinting, or maintaining steady-state effort, eliminating the discomfort that can develop during long days in the saddle.
Constructed from 80% recycled nylon, the Foundation Bib Knickers demonstrate that sustainable material choices deliver authentic performance without compromise. The low compression fit is deliberately forgiving compared to other Specialized fits, striking the perfect balance between supportive construction and unrestricted comfort—accommodating a broader range of body types while maintaining the supportive characteristics essential for demanding rides.
