  • I really rate my Victory Chimp bibs, look good, mega comfy and just within your price cutoff

  • Lusso all the way. I can't be bothered to use other brands. I still have bibs after 5 years use for winter riding. Their stuff lasts and is very roomy and comfortable.
    I did buy a pair of Enduro bibs which ripped after 3 months use - lesson learned.

  • Can anyone recommend a pair of bib shorts with pockets?

    I’ve tried the rapha core cargo and can’t seem to get on with the fit and seam position at front

  • Dhb cargo bib on sale now , surprised by their comfort

  • Have a couple of Dhb bibs but have struggled with comfort of them on longer rides

  • the cargo I bought is fine for up 3-4hr ish but every butt is different :)

  • Anyone has recommendations for brands that aren't super snug on the thighs?

    The best fitting bib I've ever used is this: Condor Professional in size Small. Perfect fit, but theyre on the way out and there's no size S in stock.

    Sportful: S is SUPER tight. Medium is still way too snug mid-thigh upwards, and its the longest I'd go
    Rapha: S is quite tight, and its already the longest I'd go.

    A different way of asking it: Bibs that are short on the quads so I can size up :) for reference, I'm 5"6', upper part of thigh measures around 21 inches.

  • I think galibier do different leg lengths in so models, might be that help?

  • They seem to have great reviews all around, and on top of having the different leg lengths, they have a jersey design that is right down my alley.

    I'll try and report back!

  • Update on Galibier: Even the size Large & Shorter leg version was too tight on quads. Not very stretchy around the bottom of the legs at all.

    On a brighter note, after wearing it for a ride or two and washing it, the Sportful Neo bib has proven to be perfect. Had a 4.5h ride in them without any issues. Currently selling for £22.5 at saddleback, so grabbed a few more :)

  • Would a medium Rapha roughly be a large in the Sportful?

  • Possibly. This is how I'd order them for size, based on experience:
    Rapha XS
    Sportful S
    ________Above this line doesnt fit me currently
    Rapha S
    Sportful M

    From what I heard, sportful is known to be more snug. If you're debating between sizes, size up if you're tall. I'm short, so going L from any brand would mean bib would be down to my knees :)

    Edit: or order both and try for size. Return procedure with Saddleback was super easy!

  • Hoping someone might be able to help please, I'm looking to get my brother a first pair of bib tights for a cycling holiday.

    Would I be looking at a large or extra-large for a 36" waist in DHB/similar?
