These shorts are simply Assos bibs without the straps. They are good fitting and comfortable for long rides and make riding without full zip jerseys much more manageable when bathroom stops become necessary. Beyond that, the only cycling shorts I use are Assos, as they are simply the best and most comfortable I've found.
Look, I returned these. They're on the long end of the spectrum and my upper legs are not. But I love Assos bibs and typically like to have a pair of cycling shorts for shorter basement trainer rides. If you're medium to long-legged, these are well made and will be great for you.
Really enjoying these shorts. They are very comfortable and true to size. Overall quality of materials are really good and worth the money. The padding is comfortable but could be a little thinker. The materials at the ends of each leg should be tighter. At times it does wrinkle up.
These are good cycling shorts and good value when on sale. I normally use Castelli and Pearl Izumi shorts and gave these a try. I liked the fit and feel. One curious aspect of these is that after washing they take a while to dry in comparison to the others-so if you are on cycling trip you must keep that in mind-twenty four hours may not be long enough.
