Anyone seen these?
I was thinking that they looked really handy, although I am not sure how I would like the strap at the back of my neck for long periods of time. I'd need to try a pair, actually I'd love to try a pair. Certainly going to make loo breaks faster and a lot less faffy.

I saw them but I suspect the strap would annoy me. I am inclined to have a slightly achy neck which can cause headaches and i think that would maybe make worse having a strap round the back of my neck.

I had thought that too.
Willing to try a pair on though, and see if they are annoying. I had a halter neck swim suit once and that was irritating once in the pool, it was OK when it was dry but the extra weight of the water made my neck ache.

It will all depend on the price of course. Being low waged with a husband who can't work at the moment means that every thing comes down to cost.

Yep..........it's not a cheap hobby as I am finding out. Just live on a very small work pension myself so can't afford to throw money away on things that don't suit.

The pro version is reviewed in this months cycling active, rrp £64.99. Are being trialled by wiggle Honda team

Got 8/10. Apparently halter neck straps held shorts in position, but reviewer said the strap felt a bit tight around the armpit area, a distraction that will affect some more than others. Comfortable cytec chamois stayed put in and out of saddle, and extra wide grippers held firm without over compression. A good value bib short option

Why confine the design to women? It's just as irritating for a bloke to have to remove the jacket when you pop behind a hedge to nip one off.

Nothing to stop men wearing these ones, although the pad may not be ideally situated :smile: I've never seen any clothing designed for men which use a halterneck however

There has been plenty of other discussion about how men can manage by pulling down the front of the bibs to free the equipment so it can be used which just isn't possible for women
