Hi there...I'm new on the cycle scene...don't have a bike yet, starting by cycling at gym and spinning at gym...went to buy myself cycle shorts recently "First Accent 8 panel..." I think it was called, decided on this one as it seemed to be of relatively good quality and not too cheap (R450) so maybe not the best but not bad (or so I thought) and also decided on this one because it had some padding which I felt I needed after doing an hour 30mins cycling but now I think I might have bought the wrong shorts...I normally wear a size 32, sometimes 30, bought this in a size small as the medium felt too loose around the groin/bum area but even with a small it looks/ feel awkward to me - the padding seems to be almost too visible/ hanging and not against my skin. How does one decide on cycle shorts?? Size, brand, "type" etc... Please can any of you experienced guys give me some pointers? It feels like I've wasted my money on these shorts and now I've worn them already so I can't exchange them so I'd like some advice when I go get some new ones so I won't make the same mistake. Thanks a lot!
