Can anyone recommend a bib short for under £60

Baybash

Does the usual maxim of the more they cost the better they are hold true?

That rule holds pretty much, but for a first pair, you can do a lot worse than these and then when you realise how good it id to wear bib shorts and upgrade you'll prob never wear them again (except maybe for commutes) but they are not bad in my opinion for that price:

Giordana Tenax IMO are the best shorts at that price

I prefer my cheaper DHBs to my more expensive Assos ones.

and another for the Giordana Tenax at that price point - £59.99 from CRC. Mine are very comfortable.

Another +1 for the Tenax. Better than shorts which cost much more.

IMHO one of the most important things with any shorts is the fit. So, unless you are within "average build and proportions" you may find that some makes lean towards the more svelt figures, while others cater for the more generously proportioned.
This may be a deciding factor in which shorts may be the best for you.

I can recommend, after having them recommended to me on here, the Santini twist gel bibshorts from gbcycles:
