3/4 bibs

ilm_zero7

Since a knee op I realise that I need to jump to 3/4 bibs much earlier in the autumn, and certainly before moving to full bib tights or thermals.

So I am looking for summer weight, not thermal fabric, and it seems as rare as - any good suggestions ? and where to find ?

If you can get over the branding, could be worth considering the Btwin Aerofit 3/4.

I use the Btwin regular length shorts for commuting and the fit is great. Pad is a little thin though.

Not many non thermal 3/4s about. Better to go with knee warmers until it's time for the thermal ones.

Knee warmers are the cheapest and most flexible option.

I'm in the same boat as you, since my knee op I'm more careful to keep them warm. I wear knee warmers from about 12 degrees down to about 6 degrees, then below there am wearing warmer stuff

I'll happily wear my Tiburu 3/4s from 0 degrees to around 15 despite them supposedly being spring/autumn. Never used my knee warmers in years.

Possibly my favourite piece of cycling clothing. A bit pricey but are the only pair of bibs I'll wear for around 6 months of the year.
