Specialized Enduro Pro shorts


The Enduro Pro is another excellent choice for spring and summer riding, thanks to its VaporRize shell, which the company claims transfers moisture and prevents your shorts from feeling clammy and claustrophobic. The Enduro Pro also possesses two large, zippered leg vents. The company’s DeflectUV 50+ treatment adds a bit of ultra-violet protection to the package – something, honestly, I never look for in shorts, but is a plus for anyone who spends long days under the glare of the sun.

Specialized characterizes its fit as ‘relaxed MTB’, something that’s a given, I suppose, for any baggy short. But that’s underselling it a bit. The Enduro Pro has a nice, ergonomic cut that feels natural on the bike. It also features a fairly long (14.5-inch) inseam that makes the short a good choice for anyone who favors kneepads. Waistband adjustability comes courtesy of dual Velcro side adjusters. Finally, Specialized outfits the Enduro Pro with its removable Body Geometry Mountain chamois–a particularly nice bit of padding.
