So I just bought some Bergamo Bib shorts. Man, these things are perfect. They are an Italian company and my shop just got some of their stuff in. The jersey's are very well made, full zip down the front (which i am not a particular fan of) but the material is like buttah.
Anyway, I have been wearing their bibs for a couple weeks now and they are so comfy. They hug my body very well. When I am standing they are a little too tight, but as soon as I hop on the bike, they are just the right fit. The lycra seems to be very finely woven so it is very soft and conforms to my body well. It hugs me, but doesn't squeeze me. The pad is high quality, pretty big and thick (which I do like) and well stitched. The pad is similar to the Pearli Izumi pad in the Microsensor/Ultrasensor shorts but a little thicker. It does not, however feel like a diaper.
Price is in the $120-30 range but well worth it. SO if you interested in another type of short/bib, take a look towards Bergamo.
