I'm after some fairly cheap blue bib shorts, all blue with minimal amounts of writing on, as I will be getting them printed on.

I have seen these at Wiggle: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/dhb-active-padd ... ib-shorts/ Anyone used them, it says suitable only for 1-2hr rides, so padding cant be too great, however reviews say they can be used for 4-5hr rides.

Only looking to spend £10-20.

Thanks

    I'd be very surprised if you can find bib shorts with a half descent chamois for 10-20 pounds

    Black shorts should be the only possible colour choice.

    I've had low end dhb's and in all honesty, ive found my cheap chinese bibs to be better quality. I struggled to last 2 hours in the dhb's.
    It really is money for nothing

    It won't be long before fancy dress gets worn on charity sportives
    I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles

    Go with the reviews from others who want to spend £10-20 on bib shorts.
    You could use them for much longer rides than 4-5 hours.
    Get them for £9 and you can put the £1-11 difference towards the printing :wink:
