I saw that Performance is having an upcoming sale, so I was thinking about looking for some cycling tights and/or knickers for the fall. I am 5'11, with a pretty long inseam, and um, chubby legs.
I've tried on a few pairs of knickers and noticed that they hit right below my knee (not sure if they should be more mid calf?) and feel sort of tight.
I'm thinking that they might irritate the back of my knee after riding for just a few minutes??
I'm a pretty recreational type rider, mostly 15 mile rides for fun, but I definitely use cycling shorts with a chamois on all of my rides.
Thoughts on knickers? Do they irritate you behind the knee when you ride? Any suggestions on some that are a bit looser in the bottom? Or just skip them and go with tights?
