Despite the summer feeling months away on this wild and windy Easter Monday, I do need a new pair of bib shorts for the coming season, specifically ones for longer endurance rides (6+ hours). Does anyone have any they could recommend please?

Cheers

Matt

Have tried a few bib shorts over the few years I've been riding Matt, obviously you "harden up" a bit, did buy some Chamois cream, Udderly smooth! £3:50 a tub & Yep base & used for cow milking udder use, it did help early on. Anyway back to shorts, cheaper DHB differently not more expensive one I have are ok, SMS (Santini) pair are good but the best ones I've got/use are my Endura ones.
Excellent kit all round really.

Thanks @Woods - that's really useful info; will check out the Endura shorts. I do own a pot of chamois cream - best cycling investment I've made recently!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
