Q36.5 Bibshorts

I have a pair of Q36.5 Dottore bibshorts that I love.
I have had them for 1-1/2 years and show no sign of wear.
I also have La Passione which I used to like but the last pair I got didn't fit well and the material went threadbare quickly. Their website has hardly any bibshorts on it I wonder if they are shutting down.
I would like to get another pair of Dottore but they are over $300.
There are some on sale but only XL and larger (I wear S).
As an alternative I found Q36.5 Gregarius Ultra for about $150 at Bikeinn and 365Rider. Both are in Spain and I have never ordered from either.
Have read some mixed reviews on Bikeinn.
Thanks for any feedback.

While not as cheap as a European seller try roadkit.com

https://www.roadkit.com/en-us/collec....option.size=S

They have a physical location, not sure if they'll charge for shippping.

I did look at them before, but just noticed they have the Dottore for $260 which is a good price.

Thanks

Never had an issue with BikeInn, fwiw.I have read the problems others had, though.

I’ve purchased from BikeInn many times, including some Q365. They have great prices and very slow shipping. It’s great if you aren’t in a hurry.

I ordered some tires from 365Rider and had no issues with the order. Might be worth a try if the price is good enough. In my case, they were tires I couldn’t find elsewhere.

I did end up ordering from 365Rider a few days ago. Got an email with tracking and they are on the way. I had sent an email to both 365Rider and BikeInn asking if they were in stock. Received a response from 365Rider the next day, never got one from BikeInn so the choice was easy to make.

My order for 365Rider got here in 3 days (Spain to California)
Great communication before and after placing the order.
Awesome shorts I like them as much as my Dottore.
Would definitely order from this place again.
