I quite like this Castelli design. It would blend in well in the coffee shops.

Just had another look today on Ali Babas website and damn... They dropped the price on a lot of the sets by a fiver. You guys should buy now. @davefy7 poser wearing black in a country as sunny as ours is not a good idea.

Cheers Ash. That's the same pad I was after. I bought a Giant jersey from aliexpress. Fits fine apart from around the shoulders so I think I will size up again.

@davefy7 poser wearing black in a country as sunny as ours is not a good idea. Roy. As ever, I have noted your very helpful advice ...... and totally ignored it. Gone for a black Castelli Cafe so that I can have posh brews and mix with the upper echelons of society. Wake up and smell the coffee, Roy. You know it makes sense.

Been tempted looking at this thread as I was thinking of some more bibshorts, not keen on all the OTT designs though. Found these www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6155897981.html for Β£10.65 and couldn't resist at that price . I've gone for XL, I'm L in normal Decathlon kit, XL in aerofit or Giordana club kit

Just a heads up people, I bought some FDJ bib shorts from ssshhh, you know where , sat on my white saddle for a 25 mile ride, some brown dye colouring has come out of the shorts and stained the saddle.
Not entirely sure if this is representative of new shorts in general but it might be worth giving them a couple of washes before using if you have a light coloured saddle.

Did you wash them before use? Any shorts I've owned have always had colour run on the first wash. My dhb shorts have always came with a label recommending washing before use.
