Icarus Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 What's the verdict on Velotex Bibs? Are they any good?
The Saint Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Not sure never tried em, but velotex products generally are good. I have velotex gloves and arm warmers and find them more than adequate, I am sure you will not go wrong with the bib shorts either.
Icarus Posted September 21, 2007 Author Posted September 21, 2007 I can get them for R152 ex vat. Sounds like a decent price for bib shorts in any case.
AndreZA Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 If it's the ones with the red shammy I think it's okay. The yellow shammy is terrible. Shammy loses it's padding in the wash.
Icarus Posted September 21, 2007 Author Posted September 21, 2007 Dimension Data 1/2 price sale ... must find out about that shammy. Even tho it's cheap, I dont want to get trash!
bruce Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 What's the verdict on Velotex Bibs? Are they any good? Only time I have used Velotex Bibs was when I rode for Club100. I did not find them to be very comfortable at all. Shammy was a bit like sand-paper. Not sure what they are like now!
Icarus Posted September 21, 2007 Author Posted September 21, 2007 I dont want to know what things looked like after a long ride!! I just spoke to Velotex ... it's yellow label stock. Nee dankie! (I'd rather go for 1st ascent or Cape Storm ... not Assos but good enough )
NotSoBigBen Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 My son raves about his first ascents so I guess they're good!
ShortLegs Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 I've just got a set and wasn't sure about the red bits on the shammy. Turns out they were super comfy, they get a from me.
Icarus Posted September 21, 2007 Author Posted September 21, 2007 Agreed, they're my favourites as well time to get another pair! cant get mine out of the wash fast enough
pastapouch Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Got Cape Storms for IM...in March... In May the shammy was stuffed
Icarus Posted September 21, 2007 Author Posted September 21, 2007 Want me to give them some feedback? I'm going to the factory shop next weekend ... pm me if you want. Going home now ... g@tvol with work Icarus2007-09-21 07:58:57
AndreZA Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 I love my two pairs of Cape Storms. Even use them for commuting and all is still perfect.
pastapouch Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 MAMPARA, don't know which CS their are, but this is the red padding, you got the same???
