Bib tights and going t'loo

Can anybody recommend any bib tights that make the task of taking a leak a little easier?
Having looked about a bit I can't see any with easy access to the 'trouser snake' without taking the bibs half off...unless I'm missing something!

This has potential to be the funniest thread in a fair while. Popcorn anyone??

I wear 3/4 bibs, just enough length for it poke out the bottom when I'm caught short.0

Arr...Ok...wish I'd not deleted all those unsolicited emails about 'enlargment' now... 0 -
None have a zipper in if that is what you are after.
They are made of lycra and so very stretchy, so just pull down, adopt a hunchback of Notre Dame stance and do the deed.Yellow is the new Black.0 -
WIggle dhb Pace Roubaix bib tights have a partial zipper that makes it possible to whip the old boy out. You still look a bit like an arthritic gnome though.0

I have an earlier model of DHB roubaix bib tights. They too have a short zipper which makes things a little easier. As does having a penis like a U-boat periscope 0

Yes some have a zip to assist putting on - I meant none have a fly with a zip in - Doh!!!! I must be more specific 8)Yellow is the new Black.0

Avoid Gore Xenon bib tights if this is a concern. The softshell fabric and high waist means it's virtually impossible to pull the old chap out, that is if I can even find him on a cold winters ride!
I have to bend into angles Beth Tweddle would be proud of to take a leak in the Xenons ! 0 -
Thanks Chaps - wasn't expecting many constructive posts given the first few posts...
I'll have a look at some with a small zip...still might not help too much on the really cold days though! 0 -
Yeah you can pull the front down and bend forward. This is great for the outdoors. Not so great indoors as you bang your helmet against the loo wall.

I just take the end out of my sock.Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.

Yeah, I have a pair of those. Though I undo the ankle zip to let the old man out.- Slave to the cadence -0 -
Pull the fronts down, hook under the nadgers, and away you go Share The Road Event http://www.sharetheroadride.co.uk

I prefer to hook the tights with my thumb and push down firmly to give access. With the nadger tuck I'd fear the tights wanging up over the old boys and giving them a slap while spraying me in the face mid deed.0

You should try having to do an emergency dump when wearing bib tights. I got caught out last summer in rural France with bad stomach cramps.
Hopped over the roadside ditch, hid the bike behind a bush and legged it into the woods. I was nearly naked by the time I got relief :roll:0 -
Some bib shorts are cut such that the front is pretty low anyway which really helps. The Castelli FAR/Body Paint are not only great shorts for riding but the low fronts mean that comfort breaks are not a problem either...except on really cold days...but that's a different issue

This very thing happened to me - albeit in a Tri suit not bib shorts but same issue, same outcome. I wasn't going to mention it through the shame - I still shudder to recall my wife gleefully explaining to our 8 year old that daddy needed wet wipes because he had weed in his own face!foggymike wrote:I prefer to hook the tights with my thumb and push down firmly to give access.

Depends on the size of your nadgers Share The Road Event http://www.sharetheroadride.co.uk

Last time I was mid comfort break, bibs hooked down and old man poking over the top, my Oakleys fell out of the vents of my helmet, dropped through the stream and into the puddle of piss I was creating.
The rest of the ride I smelt like a tramp.
