    Don't be tempted by cheap prices at Performance!
    I find that there stuff - while generally running "true to size" - tends to be ill-fitting and uncomfortable. I have a pair of their knickers and they feel like they're constantly falling down (just say NO to crack!) and they just don't fit right on my hips. I think the fabric wears out before the chamois, which is fair, and they're passable for short rides at best.
    I've sworn off Performance brand, but I can't speak for Nashbar or Adidas.

    Performance owns Nashbar.

    Very true, I've noticed the same thing. Performance jerseys don't fit me right and the tights/knickers expose more than I'd like. It's uncomfortable to have to stop every few miles and pull up my knickers as high as they'll go!

    I've ceased to be amazed by Performance/Nashbar low prices, it just isn't worth it. (At least to me, that is.)
