...if you get it in a different colour?

I've just bought some Bibshorts, reduced in price, as they're red, not black. TBH, they'll be worn under tights and 3/4's until the end of April/May anyways.

What's the opinion of the forum?

    DHB. From Wiggle. I've got some of their 3/4's and they're pretty good.

    when you say "RED" do you mean more like Andy pink?

    Bib tights are fine in most colours, but must never, under any circumstances be worn without baggies of some kind over the top....the same rule applies to all lycra items.

    So so so wrong. Lycra should be worn with pride.

    Back OT - Absolutely.

    I am a believer that form follows function. I remember bombers (and Sintessi Bazookas) coming out and everyone hating the colour. Then people realised they worked like nothing else and suddenly everything comes in 'bomber' orange.

    I say who gives a crap what it looks like as long as it does the job properly. Anything else is poofery and turd polishing.
