I know what you're thinking there's no way a bib short at this price point can be any good. I was thinking the same thing. But I found myself in Portland and so went to the warehouse store. I was having trouble with the fit of other, high end bibs like Craft Pro and DiMarchi Contour Evo. I literally looked and touched every bib biketiresdirect.com carries that I thought I could get past my wife--Capo, Assos, ProCorsa, more expensive Garneau's. I tried on the ones that looked super-well made with a great chamois for long miles on the road. I kept coming back to this one. Linda at BTD swore this was the sleeper short--super high quality but at a price that can't be beat. So I went with it over the Assos Assos FI. Uno S5 and have to say that she was spot on. I can ride this short for as long as my legs will go, and it remains super-comfortable. It has just the right amount of compression to stay where it should. It's so well designed it doesn't have and doesn't neeed silicone leg grippers. And it is about 60% of the price of what I almost got.
My only complaint so far with about a month of riding on them is that the seam stitching is pulling out in a few places. I'm not sure if it is my short or a general LG issue, but so far it hasn't been a big deal, and the shorts have a warranty that should be in place when I can make this call.
I am about 6'2" and 170 pounds and the large is a perfect fit.
