Mixed reviews. Good shop but one of the salesman once told my fiance to go to Mr Price and buy boardshorts instead of MTB baggies.

Its all about what was wanted? If it was more along the "board shorts" design then whats the problem? In effect board shorts can be worn over normal cycling shorts and have the desired result?

I go out for a ride, not a surf.

Not to mention that seam that runs right across your taint and grinds you raw after a couple of hours in the saddle.

I was talking about wearing board shorts over you bib shorts... pretty my like a pair of FOX baggy shorts

Wearing any non-padded shorts is just crazy

My experience with Dunkeld has been great. After being super fed up with my local Spez dealer and their no care attitudes, I decided to check Trek out. The guys at Dunkeld literally went out of their way to help. Highly recommend the shop

For surfing yes  ... Riding? NO

[Jewbacca]

Why not?

I ride in Jean shorts most of the time. Even done Swartberg  Gran Fondo and a heap of other long stuff as well as Stage races and other stuff in them, not just quick spins.

You guys are soft..........

I don’t know what a gatvel is but going on you’ve said thicker🤣🤣 I’ve never ridden without padded(chamois) shorts under my puma or adidas track shorts, or my fox mtb shorts when I eventually got some.. 🤷🏼‍♂️
