As I can’t find the “bargain cycling kit” thread... Just received some spexcel bibs I order a month or so back from AliExpress. Three pairs - two different shorts and a 3/4 length, sum total of about £60
First impressions are that they’re really good. I can’t fault them, and I definitely can’t fault them for ~£20 each. Plain black well fitting bibs with minimal branding.
Comfy enough for 90 minutes of regents (which is all I’ve used them for so far). Fabric is middle weight on the bibs and heavier on the 3/4s - though I think they do an aero/ summer/ lightweight version. They seem really well made - no odd bits or loose threads or the like.
Time will tell whether they’re comfy over distance (not that I do any these days) and how well they last.
