Why We Like The Outdoor Research Freewheel Ride Short
The Freewheel Ride Mountain Bike Shorts from Outdoor Research focus on durable comfort and breathability with a bike-specific fit and trail-ready features. The sturdy four-way stretch fabric is complimented by DuraPrint on the outer hems for extra abrasion resistance in high-wear areas without adding weight or impeding flexibility in the fabric. The higher back waist offers better coverage when seated, and laser perforations in the back yoke increase breathability on warm rides.

Fantastic
I am so stoked that Outdoor Research started a MTB line. These short a great: they're very durable, they have roomy pockets, they hold their own out on the mountain. The vents are nice, they are very stretchy and can accommodate a chamois no problem. One feature I love are the side cinches at the waist. Men's hiking and biking pants always have this feature, but it's really rare to find women's pants or shorts that do, so KUDOS to OR! If it were about 1" thicker that would be perfect, so it would feel more distributed like a belt instead of a cord.

Fav mtn bike shorts to date
Being a plus size rider, it's difficult to find shorts that are comfortable, breathable, have a good stretch, and actually look good. These shorts are all of the above plus some. The pockets are great for phones/keys not much else, which is ideal or else you end up putting everything in there and look like a chipmunk. I do wish they had belt loops. The waste is slightly too big but the legs fit like a dream. They don't slide down too much but I do find myself having to adjust a bit more when stopping for water/looking at a map. But great shorts over all!
