As title....
I'm looking for some shorts for longs rides...Cheers..
rapha bib shorts
Generally some comfy bibs and whatever shorts over the top?
Had various pairs over the years, so depends what you want, baggies? lycra?
Castelli Endurance X2 bib shorts with choice of over-short if needed - Gore AlpX are current faves
fox sergeants
This will now become a long list of what I own....
What's wrong with what you have and what's important to you and budget.
Sportful bibs without the bib bit, and Alpinestars Drop 2 baggies. Perfect.
Decent bib shorts under waterproof 3/4s if it might be wet or Sombrio Highlines if it's OK.
Decent lycra bibs. Assos. Gore.
+1 bibs. If I'm wearing shorts over, I like the Decathlon ones (BTwin 700, 18 quid on sale atm). They are stretchy fabric so I go a size smaller so they don't snag on anything, or weigh a ton when wet. But mainly just bibs.
i really love my specialized atlas xc shorts. they have a built in bib.
i also really rate mavic red rock shorts but for warm summer ays which seems a million miles away at the moment...
All of em? Never had a pair of cycling shorts that I wouldn't tbh. All it really needs is good fit and no seams in stupid places.
Madison Zenith for me. Also Madison flux for summer and addicts in winter. Madison are ace. Got some poc flows for crimbo which are very nice too...
Really depends on the temperatures no? For my normal day to day riding I love the Mavic Crossmax shorts and the liners are really, really comfy too. For colder days they´re fine for me but I´ll typically wear kneepads all day as well. They dry fast and something really important for me is the pockets as I can carry bars, phones etc in there which makes a big difference for me.
I´ve some shorts I wouldn´t like to do long rides in, especially if i was planning on breaking a sweat. Also some liners are really, really rubbish and don´t deal well with sweaty bawbags.
