Recieved my Rapha winter bibs. Very nice indeed. The legs go all the way down to a cm or so above my knees. Which looks odd. But is exactly what I'd hoped for. Slightly thinner material than my DHB thermal bibs. Which is also what I'd hoped for. Should make them more versitile. Really nice fit. Even with my lack of height the straps are nice and tight when standing.
Not a great test admittedly. But I've now fondled, and tried on both the Rapha pro team thermal bibs (m), and the Assos T.607.S5 thermal bibs (m). Both felt equally nice in terms of material quality, and chamios. But the Rapha was a little tighter which I preferred (plus the legs were longer).
