DR ◣◢ Posted October 31, 2012 Share Seems like a pretty good buy at R599 and the review are all quite positive. Anybody here ride with them? http://www.buycycle.co.za/brands/fox-racing/fox-evolution-bib-shorts-black-fox.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V12man Posted October 31, 2012 Share I have a set - been riding them for about a year now - not the coolest in hot weather (craft for that) bibs around, but they are by far the strongest looking material of all the cycling shorts I have, and look like they will take a beating and come back for more. Definately good value at 599 as an everyday/training bib - I will stick to craft for racing, but they are mad expensive compared to the fox ones.

Peewee1 Posted October 31, 2012 Share I also just bought the Craft active ones, also similar pricing from Solomons, very nice for their budget offering. Havent ever seen any stock of the Fox ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR ◣◢ Posted November 5, 2012 Share Took delivery this morning. Really impressed with the quality. The fit is also spot on according to the size chart. Always a tricky one when ordering online. I'm a 34 waist and 1.8m tall. The large fits perfectly. My old Cape Storm bib served me really well. Hope to say the same for the Fox ones. First ride will be very soon and I will update after that.

DR ◣◢ Posted November 5, 2012 Share Had to choose between 2 pairs of these or 1 pair of entry level Assos. Read a lot of reviews and 2 pairs made more sense. Hope I chose wisely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR ◣◢ Posted November 23, 2012 Share I've been using these for the past couple of training rides and initially I found them to be a tad uncomfortable. It took about 2 rides and 3 washes to get the stiffness out of the chamois. Now they are really comfortable with a fantastic fit and feel. Very happy with the purchase.
