These Giordana are very good. Also have Assos but don't think they are better.

I've recently purchased some Mavic Sprint bib shorts and have been really pleased with them, cost around £90.

Previously used Gore Bike Wear Power bib ones, no real complaints with them either except they seem quite short in the leg which may be a consideration if you're not wearing them under baggies.

I think the Mavic ones are a bit more expensive but they do feel better quality and for me have a more comfortable insert for longer rides.

I use cheap DHB ones from Wiggle. I wear them underneath some Altura baggies with the inners removed (even when on my road bike - can't quite bring myself to go for the full lycra look). Can't say I've ever had a problem with then and find them very comfy even after 4-5 hour rides on both road and mtb.

Decathlon Supportive ones at £40 ish seem very good so far, only a handful of rides and washes, but comfy and well made.

Don't buy any, you will be unable to pee without undressing and you will look like a dobber.

unable to pee? just pull them down at the front, it's not that difficult.
