Up-to now I have been wearing Lycra under-shorts with some baggy shorts on top.

Now I am going over 40 miles and my shorts are starting to dig into my waist.

So I am going to risk the embarrassment & get some bibs shorts.

I have read many things about panels,crotch stitching etc. and am still confused.

Ideally i want some that are really comfortable for rides over 50 miles and don't make me look like a complete tw*t (crotch area) if i have to walk,get the train.

Ideally looking NOT to go over £60 but would go to £100 for correct pair.

    Get a pair of Giodarna Tenax bibs - c.£50 from Ribble. I wear them more than my Assos shorts.

    The get yourself a paid of Buttox overshorts from foska.com

    NWL - you are the first person to take my advice on any issue.

    Don't do it again.
