Save your money and don't buy this one

I am writing this review with the ultimate goal of helping my cycling friends If you are a decent [or better] cyclist please save your money and buy this Not. If you are a beginner you can try them as you don't have any recommendations but be careful. Well, I consider myself a decent motherland with a few years in the sport. I've been doing structured indoor workouts at TrainRoad and zwift for the past few months to complement my outdoor rides and races. For this purpose, I usually wear my oldest bibs (which I no longer wear outside): Giordana, assos uno, Castelli velossicimo and Castelli garmin bib. I chose this bib to include in my internal rotation after all the good reviews. I honestly hesitated because I know from experience that there are no shortcuts in cycling (not in training, not in gear, not even in CLOTHING). I convinced myself anyway and pulled the trigger. Well let me just say I just finished my workout 10 minutes ago but it was supposed to be 1 hour 30 minutes and I didn't get past 30 minutes. The fabric is comfortable but does not breathe at all, the seams are fine and do not interfere; . but suede has to be worst of all: it's hard, thick, abrasive and makes me itchy. I have a few severe burns in the area of [name withheld]. I have never experienced something like that. With all due respect to the manufacturers and sellers, please, if you're considering buying these indoor training shorts, do yourself a favor and just use your old bibs and save your money. You can always thank me later PS I won't be wearing mine anymore and I don't think I can return them as I've washed them and also removed the long tag.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others
