By Road Rash from Chicago, IL on 08/21/2008 Describe Yourself: Avid Cyclist Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Yes, the straps do want to slide off from the bedroom to the garage; but after you hit the road I have never had a problem. These have the great old chamois style and I enjoy the feel of it better than some of the more expensive anatomically correct bibs. I am keeping an eye out for more Exte Ondo bibs.
as luxurious as cycling shorts can be By carbonlover from los angeles on 07/08/2008 Pros: Breathable, Dries Quickly, Good Padding Best Uses: Road Racing, Warm Weather Describe Yourself: Avid Cyclist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: made in northern spain in worker friendly shop, design and style just right, feel fantastic as the miles roll on.
By JK from PA on 06/17/2008 Pros: Comfort, Good Padding Describe Yourself: Avid Cyclist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These are my second pair of this particular bib. Really, really like them. EO is the only company that I know that uses a real chamois, not a synthetic one. Find the chamois to be quite soft, breathable, and comfortable. Also, the lycra is very comfortable. I really like the straps which are a cotton-like material and the cut of the bibs which make them feel more like shorts. The straps could have a tendency to slip off the shoulders, but I have not found this to be a problem.
By Mike from Southern Oregon on 05/13/2008 Pros: Good Padding, Stylish Best Uses: Commuting, Mountain Biking Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I am 5'9" 140# and wear mediums in other brands of shorts/bibs and tights. I got a medium in these and they feel a bit too small in the butt and legs, when not in the saddle. In the saddle, they feel just about right. I am still wearing them, and they may stretch with time. Next time, I will try a large. The chamois is very comfortable. Otherwise, these are great bibs
By Pink Man from Parker, CO on 05/06/2008 Pros: Breathable, Good Padding, Nice low cut in front Cons: Legs are too short, Legs are too tight, Sized too small Describe Yourself: Competitive Cyclist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Nice bib short, although sized too small, get at least a size bigger. Also, in the bigger sizes the manufacturer hasn't enlarged the legs and gripper enough, like most other brands. Still, it's a great summer bib, cut low in front, very breathable, and good price.
Best bibs I've found at this price By J from VA on 04/01/2008 Pros: Breathable, Just enough padding Best Uses: Road Racing, Warm Weather Describe Yourself: Avid Cyclist Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Fits like any other euro-sized bib I've tried. Medium fits perfectly at 5'7" 140lbs. Nice and comfortable. The only issue I've had is the mesh straps seem to want to slide towards the outsides of my shoulders. My HRM keeps them in place though. The chamois is nice without being too bulky.
Can't really beat the price.
Stylish, comfortable, small By JM from Bay Area, CA on 03/22/2008 Best Uses: Road Racing, Warm Weather Describe Yourself: Avid Cyclist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I'll admit that I bought these bibs partly for their style. They look good and are a nice departure from standard black shorts. They feel great when you first put them on, but I'm worried that the chamois might be too thin for a long ride. So far, I've only take two 12-mile rides in these shorts, so I don't know how well they hold up after hours in the saddle or many washings. The chamois is made of a nice material, with a section in back that looks and feels like real chamois (don't know if it is). In front there's a more absorbent section like terry cloth. Etxe Ondo has a reputation for running small. Believe it! I'm average height (5'11") and thin (30" waist). Normally I'd wear small or medium shorts. These are medium, they're a little too snug, especially after my legs start to warm up. I would start with large next time.
