The Alé Traguardo 2.0 is designed as a versatile all-rounder and is based on a robust, elasticated material mix. The main component is the tightly woven "Tecno Power" material, which ensures high durability, dimensional stability and good coverage. At the same time, the fabric is breathable and quick-drying - important for long sessions in warm temperatures.
Airy and comfortable fit
The bib construction is made of lightweight, elasticated mesh ("Mesh Light"), which provides ventilation and adapts flexibly to different torso lengths. Overall, the fit in the so-called Comfort Fit is slightly more relaxed than the sportier cut racing models from Alé, which makes the trousers particularly comfortable on longer or less intensive rides.
The seat pad has a multi-layer construction with zones of different densities and a memory core that reliably absorbs shocks and is designed for medium to longer training rides.
Wide leg cuffs ensure a stable fit. The siliconised cuffs keep the trousers in place without cutting in or restricting freedom of movement. The features are complemented by reflective details for improved visibility.

The leg cuffs have a comfortable fit and discreet silicone drops, which are less sticky than GripGrab's, for example. The fabric proves to be opaque and conveys an overall high-quality feel. Typically for Alé, the padding is rather generous; however, the seams can chafe a little on long rides. Apart from that, the trousers are comfortable to wear and stay in place even under load. All in all, a solid pair of cycling shorts with a convincing material feel.
