The chamois is much better, leg grips much better, fit is much better, thighs are more supportive, fabric thicker, have more reflective strips ( I ride often at night), and overall more comfortable. I'm a heavy rider so I would think lighter riders would find them even more comfy. They feel good on the first ride, maybe a little stiff down the very center but after a few rides, much more comfortable. But true to size on the chart-0-gram.

I paid $18 6 months ago but just received another 2 pair for $20 each. 2 dollar increase, OUCH! China Speed Pack shipping was rather quick. Maybe 2 weeks vs the 2 month shipping horror stories I read about.

The shorts are shown inside out to show the chamois.
How is their sizing in relation to USA size? I'd like to try one.
And what's the difference between MTB shorts and road?
