Best pants for bikers

rockmonkeysc

I don't really see the need for them. I prefer to wear shorts, even when it's raining.

Same here, however it might be quite handy for commuters.

Good Luck!

Brown pants are best, that way they don't look any different when I inevitably stack it.

rockmonkeysc

Brown, red and yellow patches.

Thought about some for keeping out the wind and rain for when it gets really cold to keep the wind chill off the legs as tights can soak up water and make the cold worse at times. Thinking some proper weather proof tights and baggies are the better option.

Good point, im always getting the two mixed up to be fair.

I normally try and remember to wear some.

Gets exhausting fighting off the ladies.

I'm seriously considering buying some bike specific shorts or 3/4 legnths.. mainly as I'm fed up with ruining jeans, casual shorts and swimming shorts, plus should offer some wind resistance.

Was thinking about these, any opinions?

I just wear boxers. I don't own any pants.

Pants, not underpants.

CD - I thought you used the incontinence variety now?

cooldad

Yep, and they double as padded shorts. Win win.

When I remember to wear anything.

rockmonkeysc

Now that the original OP has deleted his post it looks like I want to know about peoples pants & choose not to wear them myself!

cooldad

I think the mods deleted it because it was spam (he posted the same thing in a dozen threads).

But only you were dumb enough to turn it into a ride naked thread.

cooldad

Or was that me?

I forget.

Hehe ..I suppose it would heave helped to use url tags rather than img tags!

But now the tread is well and truly derailed what are people's thoughts on these?
Are they fairly wind proof?
Was thinking maybe some full length ones but they don't come with inners and the legs lol a bit wide for the front chainring. .But iIfigured I'd have to get some 3/4 warm inners anyway for when it's really cold?

I alway prefer to go commando. There's nothing quite like an unfurnished basement.

I suppose it's too late for you to grow a pair.

I'll take that as a yes then,, my cockles and knees always suffer in long rides in winter.
I can always get some long John's !

The joys of getting old. Looking on the bright side stuff you've done before will seem new and exciting.
Pants for bikers sounds more like it's aimed at wannabe Hells Angel types, bankers on Hardly Ablesons. Leather chaps with tassels perhaps?

Now I have the image seared into my mind of someone riding in assless chaps. Thanks.
