Primal Helix 2.0 Bib Shorts - Coriolis
Why to buy: no compromise bib shorts with one of the finest chamois pads anywhere and cycling details and fabric to make you purr
Order in the next New and improved this year, this latest incarnation of the Primal Helix 2.0 women's bib shorts still feature the acclaimed HX8 Carbon Italian chamois, designed to sculp to your body, provide superior comfort, prevent rubbing, and promote blood flow
As if that wasn't enough to add to your performance, they now offer the additional advantage of a laser cut silicone leg band that grips your thigh - making them sleeker and virtually eradicating any danger of 'sausage leg' at the leg band.
You'll have to ride far to find a better bib short than the Helix 2.0. And they go fabulously with the rest of the Makona range.
- Flatlock Stitching
- HX8 Carbon Chamois with 4 density, 4 way stretch designed to form to your body
- Laser Cut FlexPro Leg Band
- Pro Tour Fit
- Promesh Bib Upper
- Vero Fabric
Primal Size Guide
Primal are originally a US based firm and as a result they make clothing that works well for 'average' (if there is such a thing!) UK cycling body shapes.
The fit does vary somewhat between products, with some more snug than others, but by and large the size scales below should translate accurately. If you are still unsure, feel free to contact us.

Primal was founded in 1992 by 'real' cyclists. It's an ethos they maintain today: every employee must be a passionate and positive cyclist - but not necessarily a hugely talented one! Their primary aim is to create clothes for cyclists that not only work perfectly, but also look unique, beautiful and full of character.
Their design department is famous in the cycling world, constantly creating ambitious new looks but never allowing style to overwhelm substance. Whilst they are amongst the biggest cycling clothing companies in the world, they stand out by remaining human, approachable and flexible. They go out of their way to avoid becoming a corporate behemoth focused on 'peddling not pedalling'. It's a great approach.
Their Global Headquarters is in Denver, Colorado (lucky them!), but they have been growing within Europe for several years now, and their UK team is fully focused on what is a new market for them. We are hoping to grow with them.
We aim to dispatch all orders within 2-3 working days, often sooner. Within the UK we use Royal Mail's Tracked 48 service - you will receive a tracking code with your order.
Next Day Delivery (guaranteed by 12pm with Royal Mail) is available on some products when ordered before 1pm. This option will be shown next to the specific product when available.
If your particular size is not shown, feel free to contact us by email at contact@velovixen.com. Please note some deliveries may take longer if we need to order a product in.
