Underachiever Posted November 27, 2013 Share Look at the Santini's. They are also super comfy and last for years. I purchased my Santini's back in 2009 and they still look and feel great. +100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francois Pienaar Posted November 27, 2013 Share I own two pair of Assos bibs and they are simply amazing. The amount of protection they give you jimny is better than any other brand. I also have a pair of Pearl Azumi which compares fairly well on all levels. Can't go wrong with Assos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinton H Posted November 27, 2013 Share I also rate Santini , used the entry level Assos for a bit and I cant say they were any better . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patchelicious Posted November 27, 2013 Share Not read all the replies, but I can easily say the money spent on Assos bibs has been the best money investment of all the cash that I have spent on my riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazshell Posted November 27, 2013 Share Has anyone tried the First Ascent Compression Bibs? I got them just before Amashova. R899 and super comfortable snug fit. Chamois is tops too (IMO). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty Posted November 27, 2013 Share Put an Assos on your ass and you'll throw that crap awayI have Assos and First Ascent both which cost a lot more and found comfort wise Craft equal to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falco Posted November 27, 2013 Share Assos for my Ass. Nothing compares. Worth every cent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomo Posted November 27, 2013 Share Most bibs >R1000 will do a good job.>R2000 should do a fantastic job.Assos and Santini (gel versions particularly) get my vote.Santini (and most Italian brands) can be a bit difficult to get the right fit though.

Underachiever Posted November 27, 2013 Share Bit of a highjack. I bought a pair of Nalini bibs for a steal (R900) at the Nalini stall at the Cyclechallenge expo. They are there every year to sell stuff quite cheaply. Great quality, and comparable to Assos and Satini and Giordana. Problem is, I want to buy more of the same - at the same price :-) Does anybody who they are/were. The local agents? Contact number please?

HOEKVLAG Posted November 27, 2013 Share I've never been able to convince myself to spend the extra money on Assos bibs - but after reading all of this I'm starting to wonder! I like the Italian brands (Giordana, Santini, Nalini, F-Tech) and have had very good service from all of these brand's bibs. I also like the fact that Santini and Nalini still makes chamois from real leather... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that you ask yourself why you waited so long! arendoog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
