Seems like it would help keep the shorts from getting stinky.

Edit 1: friction is the answer

Edit 2: sorry for this edit – i was trying to make a new post, but Blorp for some reason took me to editing this one instead. Trying to put it back the way it was…

    Maybe if the underwear is not wet, it’s not time for bike wear. This is for endurance and sweat management.

      I thought the padding was to not get back pain. Right now I’m limited to about 30 min on the bike before i have to call it without shorts. With padded shorts i can go like an hour or more. This is mountain biking.
