Best jersey and/or shorts
What's your best jersey, shorts or bibs you have worn?
I have a Castelli Perfecto short sleeves.....It's so comfortable Shorts/bibs I'm still trying... Altura night shorts are ok so far |
Rapha Lightweight Bibs
Assos Mille S5 Bibs Rapha Core S/S Jersey Santini 2BCool Jersey |
Define "best".
Per my definition, this is my favorite pair of bibs- https://www.cutaway.us/collections/a...ts/probibshort And this is my favorite jersey- https://www.cutaway.us/collections/c...-jersey-maroon Haven't tried any of the fancypants italian stuff, but these are as comfortable as any cycling clothing needs to be for me. Plus the brand owner is a friend :) |
AFAIK, Assos is widely considered to be the best. As I can't afford it, I'll stick with my Pearl Izumi pieces at reasonable prices.

Pretty happy with this year's Castelli Team jersey and Team bibs. They fit well and are a nice medium weight. Get the KISS pad.
|
I'm really enjoying a couple of the kits I have. They're Pactimo and Jakroo. Both high quality, comfortable.. they stay in place.. great padding on the bibs. My Castelli kit is a close 2nd place though.
|
Hands down, the best I've ever had is by MAAP. Extremely high quality, superb comfort and fits me perfectly.

I personally think Rapha is the best I have ridden, although it is too expensive for me a lot of the time. I have had zero problems with Twin Six, and I finally got a set of the "Standard" jersey and bibs, and they are awesome. I plan to pick up a couple more sets of bibs, and maybe a couple standard jerseys.

Your loss. We don't wear lycra because it's a costume, we wear it because it's more comfortable and utilitarian for its intended purpose.
Shhhhhhh. Don't give away the secret so fast. I want to wait for his thread titled "why do I keep getting sores on my a**". |

+1 And because--let's face it--some of us look so damned good in it. :thumb: |

Kids, always wash your nether regions as soon after a ride as possible. |

To be fair, I left my bibs on while doing housework the other day for a couple hours after a ride. Next day I had a fun new saddle sore as a result.

I still like the Performance 2016 Elite bib shorts. $60 and they fit and feel fine. No need to spend over a Franklin to get a decent bib...
