Bought this Bib as spare Bib for my short rides as I do centuries every month. After trying all brands I selected Castell Aero as the best bin for my long rides and in my opinion is the best I have tried. I was looking for a spare bind to do my normal 40-60 mile ride so based on the reviews I read I selected this Bib. Is good for my short rides but will never try to do a century as it gets very uncomfortable after 60-70 miles. So I recommend for short rides but not long rides. If you want an overall comfortable bib for any kind of distance, spend the money and get the Castelli Aero Bib.
A great be pair of cycling bibs if you can afford expensive disposable bibs. These bib are very light but extremely brittle. The straps are made of lace that would likely only last a handful of rides. Many other reviewers have said their straps ripped within a few rides. If you can't resist size up by two. I'm 5'11" and 160. I normally wear a medium in everything but in Sportful I wear large except these where I'd need XL. The large were to small and had to return.
Bought on sale for a significant discount but even full price these feel like good value. Have worn them regularly both for after work interval sessions as well as day long brevets. Has held up great and I don't see any sign of significant wear as of 500 miles.
182cm (5'11)/ 71kg and I got the XL. Size chart says M.
The straps barely fit over my shoulders. Otherwise it's overall well fitted. Chamois feels the same as the Bodyfit Pro Bib which works for me with with long >4hr rides. The bonded silicon at the leg end gives the bib a cleaner look.
I love trying new and different high end bibs, especially when I can get them on sale. These are the most comfortable bibs I have ever owned. The longer the ride, the better they get compared to everything else. I love them the most for long, hot mid-summer rides.
This is my 2nd pair of Sportful bibs. The quality is what you want and expect from Sportful. The Total Comfort chamois has taken me on my 1st ever century ride with zero issues. These are my go to bibs for my longer rides. I purchased a L and am 178lbs and 5'9" tall. A bit more snug than my other pair in the same size but still comfortable when out on a ride.
Don't buy these bibs unless you like being an exhibitionist! These things are very transparent on the back end if you know what I mean!!
Nice bib, good material but sizing is off. I am 6 foot 180 lb and have XXL and still little too tight.
I've only worn them twice. I just worked them into my bibs rotation and so far to good. They do run small so size up.
