Hi all

Following on from the recent thread about the Assos bibs, has anyone else found that the dhb earnley bibs have small pads? They fit fine, but the pad only just covers my sit bones and sometimes I have to readjust it while riding.

I'm 6'2" and 15 stone, so not an abnormal size I'd like to think. Has anyone had the same problem and can anyone recommend a pair of tights/shorts with a larger pad?

Thanks

P.S. I'm obviously not as dissappointed as the Assos buyer, having only paid a fraction of the price!

    i have the earnly 3/4 and they just don't fit right (for me). i have other dhb kit and love it. i haven't noticed the pad being small and having to move it though. i wear the xl size.

    i have a pair of lusso tights and they are great. also a riding pal of mine swears by his lusso bibs with gel paddiing. these will be my next knicks.

    I find the pads fine myself, no problem with the size. I have the 3/4 also, in M. As tights they are not as good as more expensive tights but then they aren't as expensive either :D
