As Wiggle don't have any DHB roubaix shorts in my size until late September I was wondering if anyone has any alternatives that are any where near close to the price?

    Do you think you're really going to need a pair of autumn/winter shorts before this time next month? I know our weather can be pretty rotten at times, but i was hoping for a few more weeks of semi-decent weather before autumn kicks in!

    For what its worth, I've been quite impressed with my Lusso bibs. Very reasonably priced (similar to DHB) and have done a few 80+ mile rides with no discomfort in them. I have the pro gel version, but I think their 'pro core' shorts are supposed to be for cooler weather.

    Thanks, I'll take a look at the Lusso shorts.
  • A bit of advice on DHB from Wiggle, if you require the Vaeon Roubaix Shorts, 3/4 or tights then snap them up when they get them in stock in Sept/Oct IMO.

    I seem to recall the Vaeon Roubaix Range being out of stock for most of last winter which I missed out on... that's not to say it will repeat itself this season, but better to have them than hunt down something else if you're happy with their range of clothing.
