What Our Gearhead Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve been wearing the Platform Bike Short for everything from after-work trail laps to long weekend rides. The nylon-spandex blend is tough but stretches really naturally, and the crotch gusset keeps it comfortable when climbing. I love the ‘zero pad gap’ fit—works perfectly with liners. The curved rear waistband stays put, and the pocket layout is great for essentials. They feel dialed both on and off the bike."

We pull on the 686 Platform Bike Short when we want seamless comfort on the pedals and easy style when the ride ends. Its breathable nylon-spandex fabric offers the durability we need for rocky, root-laced trails while delivering the mobility that keeps us moving smoothly through climbs and switchbacks. With a DWR finish and UPF 40+ protection, these shorts stand up to unexpected weather and long hours under the sun.

Thoughtful details enhance every mile: a gusseted crotch for unrestricted motion, reinforced pocket openings for durability, and an Innie + Outtie waist drawcord that fine-tunes the fit. A curved high back waistband maintains coverage in aggressive riding positions, while zippered pockets secure small essentials. From trail days to town roll-throughs, the Platform Bike Short handles it all with comfort and capability.
