BikeisLife Posted December 15, 2017 Share So, the time has come where I’ve got some extra money to finally spoil myself with a decent pair of bib shorts and hang up the old Cape Storms that don’t do the greatest job for the longer rides. Are there any brands that I should definitely look at? Are there any brands that I should stay clear of? I’ve has a look at Ciovita as they have a fairly decent deal, are they worth it? Thanks in advance! My budget is maxed at R2 500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khm4252 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Which Assos model? Are they all decent or is there a substantial difference with price increase? Assos is the bestm - if you can afford them then get them. Neopro is good enough. I have a few of them and the 1 level higher and there is not much difference. Warthog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malpiet Posted December 15, 2017 Share Castelli for me if you doing road riding, i gave away my assos shorts was a piece of overpriced sh*t. Also found Santini to be good value for money, Vermarc RPP worked well for 2-3hours anything after that my ass was buggered. Omlette 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lechatnoir Posted December 15, 2017 Share I'm seriously impressed with Ciovita. Will be swaddling my bits in some very soon. Castelli (when on special - thanks CWC) are very nice and hold everything firmly in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karman de Lange Posted December 15, 2017 Share Been Riding "Enjoy fitness" bibs .. fits me perfect and no issues even on 8+ hr rides. Time will tell how long they will last, but now about year and still seem fine http://enjoyfitness.co.za/ Edited December 15, 2017 by Karman de Lange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsh00 Posted December 15, 2017 Share I've tried various brands and some are effective, but my choice would definitely be Assos... which ever model you can afford... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letum911 Posted December 15, 2017 Share I like my Craft bibs. Comfy, retains colour after many many washes and you can get 2 for the price of Assos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
