The ABR1 Pocket Bib Shorts are made for the longest days on the bike. Albion developed them with ultra-distance riders, and they've been ridden to wins and record times on the Tour Divide, the Atlas Mountain Race and the Highland Trail 550. If your rides are measured in hours rather than kilometres, start here.
Two mesh leg pockets and a rear side-entry pocket let you carry a phone, gels or a wind jacket without touching your jersey pockets. That's handy on gravel and bikepacking trips, and just as useful on a long road day. Everything stays reachable while you ride.
The Albion x Elastic Interface chamois is built for long hours in the saddle. The 2025 update adds a higher gauge main fabric for more compression and polypropylene-knit straps that move moisture away faster. A hidden Rear Guard panel above the pad makes the shorts last longer.
An on-bike fit that runs true to size, with a reduced number of panels and flatlock seams. Our studio model is 180 cm (chest 91 cm, inner leg 80 cm) and wears size S. Want to compare them with your current bibs? Try them on in one of our stores in Amsterdam, Utrecht or Rotterdam.

Alba Optics
An iconic shape that we loved to wear, born and popularized in the nineties. A decade of indelible, extreme and contradictory cultural changes. The ANVMA ’99 is a bold and unapologetic step towards a modern chapter in sportswear. A classic frame, redesigned for today’s athletes who practice outdoor sports. Visionaries who seek new and alternative performance focused kit. Inspired by modern urban explorers and the artists who dominated the hardcore and hip hop scene. A time as good as hazelnuts with raisins were, or quite simply, when street life rewarded both the excluded and the righteous.
