SURFER Posted April 26, 2023 Share My experience: The CIOVITA CORSA 2.0 comfortable, but material do not last long (See through, not nice sight). The CIOVITA SUPPREMO material no issue, but to much padding for me. Still using it for 1 - 2 hour rides (no material issues, being using it for a long time). I decide to spend some $ and got ASSOS GT and ASSOS GT C2. The ASSOS great for and long distance (not to thick padding). No material issues Paid good price at Bike Addict for ASSOS. Cheaper than CIOVITA SUPPREMO (was a special). If somebody is interested I do have a CIOVITA SUPPREMO XL (black). Used 3 times. Make me a price (bit embarrassed to sell "used" bib, but still new). To big for me. Using L size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W@nted Posted April 26, 2023 Share My corsa 2 also went see through at the butt crack after about a years use. Corsa 1 is faded after 5 years, but at least not see through. I think it is time to save up and try an assos DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselnDust Posted April 26, 2023 Share I’ve seen many ciovita bibs with fabric run s that cause the “display the dvd drive slot” phenomenon. I haven’t checked mine yet but I wonder if it’s a size issue caused by wearing a bib snug (as they should be) and this causing stress fractures in the fabric pile.

Gave it a 133km trial run .... VERY happy 👍👍 Now for the durability .... do know their tops are holding up nicely. What is the verdict on the durability?

love2fly Posted December 20, 2023 Share Just got my first Ciovita and it's the Corsa bib and the Etape jersey.Most comfy shorts I've ever had and the fit of the jersey is brilliant, especially the band over the arms where the sleeve ends. Love them, plus best rain jacket I've ever had! Edited December 20, 2023 by love2fly Correct jersey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
