Good call. Rapha is also widely available, especially in Massachusetts.Pearl Izumi a decent US brand, widely available, $100 should get a decent pair

I've just ordered a pair, hopefully your right.I've probably got about a dozen pairs of bib shorts including Decathlon, Specialized, Polaris, Merlin and Castelli and can say without doubt that the best ones for long distance are the Merlin Elite bib shorts.
In fact, they are so good I now have 4 pairs and at £45 would be very difficult to beat. Even on rides in excess of 100 miles I have never experienced any discomfort.
