    Voler Elite FS shorts/bibs?

    Anyone tried them? I'm especially curious to know more about the new Trilogy pad.

    Thanks in advance!

    I really like the Trilogy pad. It is on the thick cushy side (I think the voler rep described it as a "6 hour chamois") - but not the type of chamois that gets soggy when you sweat alot. I have worn it on 6 hour rides, and it did the trick. tokie

    Thanks!

    A pair of each (shorts and bibs) showed up last night. The Trilogy pad is definitely more chamois than my Terry Bellas have, but it seems to be wide enough across the sit bones, which is a good thing! I'm hopeful that it's going to work well on longer rides or multi-day rides.

    The fabric of these shorts is soooo soft and silky. I think it's going to be really nice on hot, humid days. These are my first bibs too, and I'm afraid that I may be spoiled now

    I'll post more thoughts after I've had a few rides in them.

    Ahhh, bibs - so nice across the tummy! I bought those bibs for our team kit. My friend bought the regular bibs with the thinner chamois. She won a TTT championship, and the State Champion kit she got for her win ( she had to buy it) was the Voler elite with the Trilogy pad. Now she wears those bibs almost all the time, her very favorite too. Enjoy! Tokie

    +1 on bibs! I finally get a pair (not Voler) and am in love with them! It is so nice to not have a waist band on the bike and now I don't want to wear my other shorts...

    See, this is what scares me... I have a pretty decent collection of shorts that may now go un- or under-used
