Review on CEROTIPOLAR LongInseam Cycling Padded Available by Marc Alvarez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good price but not without compromises

They're excellent for the price, but they're not "as good as bibs triple the price" as some say. TERRIBLE thick (it's not meant to "cushion") but actually works well for me without getting bogged down. - Atypical cut works well (not your typical 8 or 10 panel design but feels good). - Bib top/straps appear to be well made. The straps are wide and comfortable. Cons: The fabric is NOT waterproof. In some cases, when it's wet, taking it off is like taking off a wet bathing suit. A lack of moisture wicking can also become a big problem when cooler weather sets in. - No grab (as clearly stated by the seller). I often have to adjust my feet while riding. I really wonder how they would work with knee or leg warmers. So for your average two-hour enthusiastic ride or to torment a trainer in the basement, they seem like a good choice. Let's see how they perform over time and if the "wet swimsuit" becomes an issue in cooler temperatures. Comfort - 4 stars. Value - 5 stars. Suitable - depends on you. On the advice of the seller, I ordered a few sizes and left what fit.
