*sniff* Fave bib knicks have changed..

IME, the Pearl chamois takes a few wash and wear cycles to "settle in". I really don't like them right out of the package, but after a few rides, they're my long-ride shorts. I prefer something lighter/thinner for shorter rides.

I have those Voler Elites too....very nice chamois. I wish they'd make the inner thigh seamless though....then they'd be in the running for long-ride shorts. I keep hoping!

At the LBS yesterday I found the PI Elite drop-tail bibs are now made from the In-R-Cool fabric and the grippers are wider. Since I KNOW that I can work with the 3D chamois, I decided that the extra expense of the P.R.O. drop-tail In-R-Cool bibs wasn't necessary.

I had also spoken with TE staff and they told me they aren't carrying the P.R.O. drop-tail In-R-Cool bibs because they do not like the regular In-R-Cool P.R.O. shorts - apparently the legs are too tight where they grip the thighs.
