Assos Bib Shorts Sizing

[camerons]

Hello,

 

I want to buy some Assos bib shorts off the net. From what I've read their sizes come up pretty small. I am currently torn between the XL and the XXL but can't decide. I am 195cm/87kg. Looking at their sizing chart I beleive I will need the XXL but I don't want to mess this up as the are very expensive. Unfortunately there is no where near by where I can try some on.

 

Anyone of a similar size to me rocking Assos? What size?

 

Thanks

I wear XL Anatomic and TIR Assos. Is Durban really too far to drive from Ballito to save a grand by checking the size first? If they are too big after your online purchase, I will give you 500 bucks for them, unworn of course...

There is a UK website - cyclesurgery - selling Assos stuff for 50% off for today only. Hence my question and my need to purchase ASAP without trying on, otherwise I would do as you suggest.

 

I opted for the XXL over XL as everything I have read says size up when buying Assos. According to the sizing guide the only difference between the XXL and the XXXL is that the XXXL are a bit wider. Length is the same. I definately don't need wide.

 

I know people coming to and from the UK all the time so they will bring me the gear. No VAT. No import duty.
