The big advantage of bib shorts is that they don't grip around your waist. So you don't end up with a bit around your waist which has been gratuitously destroyed during your ride. I have a pair of shorts that grip around my waist, and they're way less comfy than cheap bibs.
Just a comment about shoes - I bought a pair of the Specialized Sport BG SPD shoes about 6 months ago, and the cleat came off the bottom of one of them today, and seems to have stripped the thread in coming out - not sure I'd recommend them.
