The Men's Gen II Elite Aero Tri Short is praised for its excellent performance, great feel, and high-quality fabric. Customers appreciate the comfortable chamois and perfect padding, though feedback on sizing and the number of pockets is mixed.

"Bought a size L. At 6'00" 180lbs and a 34 inch waist, I expected a L to fit well. However, they were a very tight fit. Should have gone with an XL. I'll be checking the return policy to see if its possible to exchange for a larger size. All that said, the materials are great and this is a quality tri short."
"Bought these as an option when not wanting to wear a full tri suit and love em. 1st use was a 3hour ride and 30 minute run. No issues with either discipline. Fit is snug but not uncomfortable. 5'7" 160lbs, medium with 9. 5" inseam was perfect for me. Would definitely recommend."
"Overall very good tri short with plenty of compression ."
"A new Roka tri short is as comfortable as any top cycling short even with less padding. With make it very suitable to stay in TT position for longer times"
"Non ho ancora avuto l'occasione per provarli . . . ancora freddo qua !"
