I have been using this bib short just like the previous version, on road and gravel. The legs are long for protection with good compression and the grippers are wide and hold. The pockets are secure and large enough to hold my iPhone and easy to access while riding. The pockets are close to the thigh when empty and easy to stash wrappers while riding. I actually had to look if my phone was on my thigh because it was so comfortable. This short has everything I need for comfort and ride protection. The chamois is very comfortable and the shorts are abrasion resistant.
