My mountain bike shorts did not have a good liner that was thick enough so I bought these to try under the shorts. I primarily ride a road bike and use Pearl Izumi Pro bibs. I figured these would be about the same under the shorts. Bought these to try same size I normally get for my road shorts, but the straps are a little tight. Not terrible and I have used them several times on mountain bike rides. I am thinking of trying them under my long unpadded bib tights rather than road bib shorts. I may also try them on my trainer over the winter and get another pair if they work out.
Whenever I can pick up Pearl Pro Liner shorts on special I jump. The padding is great, Pearl makes a long lasting product, and I know what size I wear in their product line so I can buy with confidence. These bibs a super lite fabric and can be worn alone or under shorts. I like the leg pockets as they are super handy, the back bib pockets not so much as they are hard to access. A great warm weather short.
The fabric is the best, the pas is really so so...
My Sugoi are way more comfy... but warm...
