Why We Built The Backcountry Slickrock 7in Bike Short
"The lightweight fabric is perfect for hot weather, and the short cut is stand-out stylish but doesn't leave me feeling exposed to the summer sun." —Gearhead® Expert Jo
Smooth, dreamy singletrack winding through breathtaking desert vistas and red rock towers calls out to us constantly. So we answered by creating the Backcountry Slickrock 7in Bike Short. Its stretchy, water-resistant fabric deflects splashback from the occasional puddle and lets us pedal freely, while laser-perforated thigh vents and UPF 50+ sun protection combat the intense elements of desert riding.

Cute, but Terrible Fit
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Shorts look great, but they ride up your legs and crotch when riding, pretty uncomfortable. Happy with the size, but the fit is all off.

A little off
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
The sizing is a touch more snug than the previous version of these (which I loved). I returned bc I like to have my phone in my pocket. With the 7” the zipper can close wedging my phone (reg iphone13 for size) under it, but the pocket isn’t deep enough so the phone sits at the hip bone and makes it uncomfortable to pedal.

Amazing Intro Shorts
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
If you’re new to mountain biking, get these. I bought an older version of these that Backcountry makes and put them through the ringer! From Moab to NC to California they were my go tos. When they finally kicked the bucket I got these right away. I’ve only used them a few times but there are even more design improvements. I love the 7 inchers bc they work with the Covert liner. Fit true to size for me!
