I've found that this jersey works great in temps between 40-60F. With a short sleeve base layer it's just warm enough to get you started in the upper 30's to low 40's and won't be too hot when it approaches the upper 50's. With a long sleeve base layer, it's kept me more than comfortable in the lower 40's-low 50's for rides up to 2.5 hours without a problem. If it had a two way zipper I'm sure it could stretch into the lower 60's, but it's on the warmer side of things without a two way zipper. Since my area of the country hasn't really had winter this year I have had plenty of opportunity to wear this jersey since purchasing as opposed to waiting for spring. It's very comfortable and had nice, usable pockets to stash your riding gear like food, ride wallet, extra gloves, etc.
Got 2 pairs of these recently when they were on sale. Pretty much 2 bibs for the price of one 'name brand' pair. I found these very well made with good stitching and quality fabric. The pad is comfy and has no sharp edges or weird stitching. Just a nicely sized chamois that does the job. The legs on these are a bit short compared to other bib shorts I have. If you like a longer inseam on your shorts this will be an issue. I wear these to mountain bike with a pair of MTB shorts over so the shorter inseam is better for me. These shorts also have done well for all my weekday road rides of 30-40 miles with no problem. These are great bibs on sale. Not sure I would be as happy with them if I payed full price.

The fit and finish are quite good, this is a very well made garment. I'm a slim build, 183 centimeters, 70 kilos, size medium.
In comparing these recently purchased (2025) PRO bibs to the PRO bibs I purchased in late 2023, I feel this newer chamois under delivers in comfort. On rides exceeding 6 hours, my "butt-o-meter" says this triple-density Levitate chamois is good for ~130 kilometers. The older pad is still more comfortable at 160+ kilometers.
I can't say with any certainty but perhaps there's been a change in pad design/material???
Pearl Izumi, please revise your Pro chamois.
