Description
WHAT IT IS
An all-new solution for gravel and touring comfort, engineered with body-wrapping compression, high-wear textiles, additional cargo space, and the secure, quick-release bisiClick bib strap system.
BEHIND THE PRODUCT
The UMA GTC C2 is built with robust textiles and a fit tuned for full-body motion on and off the bike. It’s also equipped with three thigh pockets – one large and two small – for day-trip supplies or to supplement pack space. Reflective stripes on the back of the legs help ensure visibility on gravel or roads alike, and the bisiClick magnetic closure system provides quickrelease convenience.
WHEN/HOW TO USE IT
From racing to touring, the GTC line is equipment for any ride that goes beyond the tarmac or lasts longer than a day.
FINER DETAILS
FEATURED FABRICS
Type.429 wraps with a lightly compressive hold for a streamlined, breathable fit with odorControl and UPF 50+. When the gravel “road” becomes little more than a path and trailside brush closes in, side panels of Bunny Hop add a barrier against abrasion that stretches and compresses with a 50/50 polyamide and elastane blend, and Rete 110 mesh provides secure, bi-stretch support for the pockets.
CONSTRUCTION/FIT
Our regularFit is streamlined yet accommodating for gravel and includes a standard leg length. Tuned for comfort in the saddle and mobility off the bike.
ENGINEERING
- bisiClick: Twin magnetic closures anchor the bib straps. Intuitive to connect and release, but secure enough to prevent unintentional unclasping.
- Silicone Leg Grippers: A more robust, gravel-ready version of our Lycra leg and design that grips the thigh without bulky grip applique.
- Triple Ramp Pockets: Three thigh pockets secure ride essentials with an integrated lid of elastic textile.
UMA GT C2
- Shock-Absorb Damping Mono 9: Compressive foam layers in a 9mm endurance platform. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation.
- goldenGate: The stitching pattern anchors the front and back but lets the insert’s body float, letting it move with your body rather than against it.
- 3D Waffle: A patented, three-layer, perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
