The Single Tracker: Common Questions
What is the Single Tracker and what makes it Urban Cycling Apparel's most popular MTB short?
The Single Tracker is Urban Cycling Apparel's flagship mountain bike cargo short — a baggy-fit trail short built around the needs of real trail riding rather than a road cycling aesthetic. It combines deep zippered cargo pockets that secure your phone and tools through rough terrain, a seamless single-panel under construction that eliminates the inner seam rubbing that plagues standard shorts on long rides, water-resistant Cordura fabric with quick-dry wicking, and double-stitched panels throughout for durability where trail abuse is heaviest. It is available with or without the G-Tex padded undershorts depending on whether you want integrated chamois padding or prefer to ride your own liner. The combination of functional cargo storage, chafe-free construction, and durable fabric at an accessible price point is what has made it the brand's consistent best-seller.
Should I order the Single Tracker with or without the padded undershorts?
This comes down to your riding style and what you already own. If you do not have a separate padded liner and you ride for more than 45 minutes at a stretch, order with the G-Tex padded undershorts — saddle comfort on longer trail rides without any chamois padding deteriorates quickly and is one of the most common reasons new mountain bikers cut rides short. If you already own quality bib shorts or a dedicated padded liner that you prefer, order without — the outer shell alone is lighter and the fit is cleaner. The G-Tex undershorts are detachable, so you are not locked into wearing them every ride. Riders who do occasional shorter trail laps without padding and longer backcountry days with it find the with-undershorts option gives the most flexibility across different ride types.
What is the G-Tex padded undershort and how is it different from a standard liner?
The G-Tex padded undershorts use an antibacterial chamois pad that is ergonomically shaped for the mountain bike riding position — a more upright, dynamic posture than road cycling where riders shift weight forward, backward, and side to side constantly through technical terrain. The antibacterial treatment matters specifically for MTB use because mountain biking generates more sweat across a wider range of body positions than road riding, and a liner that develops bacterial odor quickly becomes unpleasant to use repeatedly. The G-Tex pad is also designed to wick moisture actively rather than absorbing it, which means it does not become heavy and clammy during sustained climbs or hot conditions. The ergonomic shaping focuses padding density at the sit bone contact zones rather than distributing it uniformly, which reduces bulk in areas where thickness causes friction rather than comfort.
What is the seamless under panel and why does it matter for trail riding?
The under panel is the fabric section that contacts your inner thigh and the saddle area during riding — the zone most responsible for chafing on longer trail sessions. Standard cargo shorts typically construct this panel from multiple pieces of fabric joined by seams, which creates raised seam lines that rub against skin repeatedly over the course of a ride. The Single Tracker uses a single-panel construction for the under section — one continuous piece of fabric with no interior seam running through the contact zone. All panels and pockets are double-stitched, but the stitching is flat rather than raised, which keeps internal surfaces smooth against the skin. On a two-hour trail ride at Coler or Slaughter Pen in Bentonville, this difference is felt. On a longer all-day backcountry ride, it determines whether you finish the ride comfortably or spend the last hour managing irritation.
What is Cordura fabric and why is it used in MTB shorts?
Cordura is a brand name for a family of high-tenacity nylon and polyester fabrics originally developed for military and outdoor applications where abrasion resistance, tear strength, and durability under repeated stress are critical. In MTB shorts, Cordura's advantage is that it withstands the specific abuse trail riding inflicts — brush contact, rock scrapes, saddle friction, and repeated washing without losing its structural integrity the way lower-grade nylon degrades over time. The water-resistant treatment on the Single Tracker's Cordura shell sheds light moisture from wet trail conditions and muddy splatter, keeping the outer fabric from absorbing water and becoming heavy during early-morning or post-rain rides. It will not keep you dry in sustained rain but handles the typical trail moisture exposure that Ozarks riding involves across spring and fall seasons.
How do the Single Tracker shorts fit and what size should I order?
The Single Tracker runs small — this is the most consistent feedback from buyers across all retail channels, and it is worth taking seriously before ordering. If you are at the top of a size range or between sizes, order up one size from your normal measurement. The shorts use a baggy trail fit — relaxed through the seat and thigh to allow the full range of body motion that technical MTB riding requires — rather than a slim or athletic cut. The sizing is marked by waist measurement: Small covers 26 to 28 inches, Medium 29 to 32, Large 33 to 35, XL 36 to 38, 2XL 39 to 41, and 3XL 42 to 45 inches. For reference, a rider who typically wears a 32-inch waist jean should consider ordering a Medium and evaluating fit before assuming standard sizing applies.
