Cycling shorts

[rickh01]

Does anyone have a recommendation for for reasonable cycling shorts for over 4 hrs in the saddle, and where to get them from. At the moment I have purchased my shorts from decathlon because I'm in my infancy with road biking. But now as I make my rides longer with more times out at night I need better shorts but don't want to pay the earth for them!!

I used to use the 5 rated decathlon shorts and they were good but i have recently moved onto dhb aeron from wiggle at a similar price and they are better and with a return policy its easy to get the right size.

DHB Aeron Race or Aeron Pro. I like them a lot. Endura FS260 Pro are also very comfy.

+1 on Aeron race, worked well for me over 1100km in 100 hours.

Currently wiggle are selling the bibs for the same price as the shorts.

You can definitely feel a difference in quality between Decathlon and DHB. Yes it's a bit more but it's noticeable.
