I have only ever had normal shorts and I was wondering whether it would be worth investing in good quality bib shorts or is there not much of a difference between bib shorts and normal shorts?
I've had a trusty pair of DHB shorts for seven years or so, along with another pair from Decathlon. Both have been eaten by the washing machine, so I want to get a new pair for when they finally become a distraction for other road users.
I ordered four pairs of DHB shorts over the last couple...
Hi,

I've recently purchased my first pairs of bib tights, with pretty mixed results. Accordingly, I'd be interested in some advice before buying bib shorts. My chief criteria is comfort for all day rides - so a fairly cushioned pad. From magazine reviews I've narrowed it down to dhb Aeron or Rapha...
Not sure what to go for.
Either Bib shorts, or regular shorts with leg warmers. Or bib tights?
Thermal or non-thermal. Looking for all year round clothing?
Opinions?
(I've never worn bibs before so it's all new to me)
Boardman winter bib longs size medium
Used these for 4 / 5 times just to small for me.
Willing to swap for three 700 x 25 inner tubes , good deal for someone .

The shorts i bought in the halfords sale for a grand sum of £5 each on sale down from about £45 are great apart from one issue, waist wise they are perfect but the shorts ride up my leg on long rides nd i get bunching under the crotch, got a saddle sore last week .
Is there any way to make...
Giant short sleeve shirt in Medium ,Santini Bib shorts in an 'Italian' large so effectively a medium for both items. Matching logo and designs the shirt is unworn bibs 2-3 times only.
What good quality, well padded and comfortable bib shorts that will not give me a sure bum after 30 miles? Please, what shop and how much to expect to pay?
Having had my legs out for the first time this year, the pad in my Specialized bib shorts seems to have gone a bit flat and the edge seams rubbing a bit.
They are 2 - 3 years old so time for a new pair.
What brands do women on here recommend? Some seem to cost silly money. Is it worth it?
Hi I have had a pair of bib shorts from decathlon and a couple of eBay but was thinking of a better brand and recommendation and are the worth the money as they look to be expensive
I have a pair of Lusso carbon bib shorts size large. They only been worn a couple of times, as they are just a little on the large size for me. I replaced them with a pair in medium, and they are my go to shorts for 12hour+ audax rides. The pad is very comfortable!
Review...
I was given a decathlon gift voucher for christmas and was looking around for some tights but also saw some good bargains for the bib tights.
I have never wore bibs only waist tights.Surely if you get the wrong size(too big) won't that make them loose around the shoulders?
Sizing miles out, 4 inches smaller at waist compared to my current race fit Altura bibs in same size, leg over 2 inches smaller around opening
Lycra very thin.
Pad in wrong place, does not cover anything at the front end:blush:
No overlocked seams despite them being visible in the marketing...
Bought myself dhb flashlight bib shorts abouy 2months ago . Picked a size going by the size chart size large . I'm 5"9 13st. Thought they were a bit tight round the meat and veg area but overall a snug fit .
I went out today and tried on a few pair of different size dhb classic bib shorts and...
Now and then i see a guy on a TT bike in Richmond park ( i dropped him this morning :laugh: ) On the back of his blue bib shorts is GBR Aud . Any ideas if he is part of team GB or has he just bought some shorts ?
I have had enough of bib shorts not fitting correctly. I currently have Castilli and dhb bibs and although the material is snug on me, the pad is no where in the right place - comes too far past my sit bones and sort of sticks out the back.
A bike shop recommended me Endura FS260 Pro shorts...
Yes, yet another bib shorts thread.
Anyone had /have Rivelo bib shorts? On offer at Sport Pursuit for £49. Seem decent, only shorts I have are Chinese knock off's - is there much difference in comfort between them anyway?

All the ones I have are good for up to 40 miles, after that, my bum hurts and the ride becomes uncomfortable so what make to you recommend that will have padding good enough to go past 40 miles? Budget about £120.
I bought these for LEL but in the end they just sat in a drop bag as I didn't change out of my Assos. So they have done less than 30 miles of commuting and been washed. Essentially brand new, but can't justify keeping them now.
£85 posted?
This may sound like a silly question, but do some rider where a short bib over a longer one? Or is this just the style of some long bibs?
When it was colder and I was a little sore I did this, but not sure if anyone else does?
I bought these in mid-October 2016.
Here is my thread asking for advice on the subject:-

Worn three times in great condition.
