    I love the chamoi.. I've ridden pearl izumi knicks and I definately rate my skins knicks chamoi higher then them.. My fav pair before my skins a pair of womens specific santini gel bib knics so until I do some more riding in my skins I am going to say that after my couple of rides in the skins I like them the best. In a lot of my other knicks I am continuously moving my self around on my seat to get a better comfortable position.. with my skins I dont find my self doing that at all.

    yes I went by their fit calculator. I'm 165cm and 53kg so I fit into the EX SMALL category... Mind you I remember when I first got my recovery skins they to felt a little tight for comfort but soon I either got used to them or they slightly stretched.

    Becuase they were so expensive I only got the knicks not the bib knicks just to make sure I was going to like them. I usually wear bibknics (my new skins knicks are my only pair of knicks) and I find them just as comfortable. They don't have elastic the whole way round the waist which is great, just about a 3inch bit at the back and thats it.

    I hope this was helpful...
