Decathlon 500 bib short pad

Is it the same as the 500 non bib ?
Cant see any pictures on the interweb , heres the non bib version,

I am in the market for new shorts as im finding the dhb essentail shorts are bunching up on longer rides and i have read that a too thick pad can cause this and the grey pad in them is

Not sure it helps but that looks like the exact same pad as the 520 bibs I bought last year.

Ive got both the bib, and non bib versions.
The pad in the non bib version, has a smaller pad, which works very well.

I was in at the weekend, the new stock is in so last years 700 series are relabled 520, so the manager informed me, and they are in the sale, very comfortable

They're the same as the 500's from last year. I own 2 sets of them! They're OK for 20-30 miles. The 700, or Aerofit have a much better pad.

I preferred the old 500 pad it was like red velvet while the new one is foam, still ok though.

Found the old red one to sculpted , went for a pair of dhb `s in the end as with my discount they were cheaper than the decathlon shorts.
