- Pee-friendly cycling shorts for women allow you to take toilet breaks without having to undress at the top, for example with a zip or magnetic fastener.  
- The advantages are less exposure, faster stops and time savings, especially in long-distance and ultra-cycling races.

- Cycling shorts are worn without pants so that the seat pad acts directly on the skin and optimally reduces pressure, moisture and friction.  
- Underwear under cycling shorts causes seams, creases and wetness in exposed areas and favours chafing, pain and skin irritation.  
- Wearing them without pants is hygienic if the cycling shorts are washed after each use, with the exception of baggies, where the padding should also be worn next to the skin.

Bottomless: Why you shouldn't wear pants under cycling shorts

- With In&motion, Van Rysel has developed a skinsuit with an integrated airbag that protects the upper body, neck and spine and weighs 500 grams.

- The suit is being tested with WorldTour teams in the peloton; availability for amateur athletes is planned within two years.
