rock Posted October 13, 2006 Author Posted October 13, 2006 pat went for the gimp suit http://www.desyre-foundation.com/images/patty.gif
Mark Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Once you have had a decent pair of bibs you will never go back to shorts.
Jason Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Yeah BIBS rule... but are a little bit more pricey... but well worth it!
TNT1 Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 My son drools so much... The bib doesn't even seem to help anymore! He'll drool on anything, his bib, his shorts, hell, he'll even drool on a gimp suit whatever the F*@# that is! But then he is only 7 months old, teething and can't even use a computer so I dunno how he is supposed to vote in this poll. Doh! bicycles! Doh!
slowpoke Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 moonlight, stuff practical - it's what is comfy for 100-200km that counts... a couple of extra seconds in the bushes/ladies is worth the comfort of bibs!
Gumpole Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 I got my first set of Bibs with Club kit, cant say there is much of a difference but the Bibs are definitely a lot warmer and using the toilet is a hassle. SP, you will be getting some wrath and retribution from the non DM fans soon
ZippIt Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 cant say there is much of a difference but the Bibs are definitely a lot warmer there is a huge difference in bib and ordinary cycling shorts. the difference is that bib shorts that fit properly are meant to position the shammy properly on your body and keep it there during vigorous riding so as to avoid all the horrible things associated with chaffing/saddle sores etc. you obvioulsy get pros that still suffer, but it does help it. also with normal shorts, being hunched over - normal racing position - tends to 'clump' around your stomach.
Gumpole Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 I've never had any chafing problems with either. Of course I haven't done a 6,7 or 8 hour ride in my life!
Wonder Woman Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Don't like having anything on the stomach. Bibs is a definite....
Sir Fed Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Shorts but then again I dont use a chamois either so my vote probably doesn't count for much.
nellie Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Bibs for ladies is not very practical. agreed!
Grantc Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 definitely a bib not a hard core triathlete like Sir Fred
