Rapha Bib Short - Ride Report

[blschaefer1]

My new Rapha bibs arrived yesterday, and I wore them on a long ride today.

I am really impressed. Very soft fabric and super comfortable braces. Great chamois. Stayed in place and did not move around. Very good quality construction. It's all good.

I have historically worn Assos Mille's and I would rank these a tick higher in comfort.

Anyway, not sure if anyone cares but thought I would pass these thoughts along.

Incedentally, Competitive Cyclist is has a coupon running during the Giro for 21% off apparel. Coupon code is GIR24. Dropped these down to $165. Great deal, I'm going ot try to buy another set.

They are my favourites, by a very long way.

I typically like thinner pads, so was quite surprised I liked the thicker rapha pad too (other bibs are PI pro, top end mavic and capo). straps very comfortable, and the solid understated black is nice. as noted elsewhere, no compression (nbd to me). 20% off....thats the lowest price i have found.
