In Grey they are reduced from £36 to £10.80 , a bargain indeed but only if they are comfortable for hours in the saddle.
So anyone wearing these ? Are they just really basic for short rides ?
I wouldn’t bet you arse on it.
If they are direct from DHB rather than Wiggle though?
They are a very short pair of shorts (my tan lines didn’t line up!) and feel quite cheap - like they now are! the material is thin and incredibly stretchy so limited compression and the pad is very so-so (according to my arse).
I bought a pair to try out, they got used once outdoors, they were used for 6 months on then trainer as spare pairs. At £10 id be tempted to buy them to use as under-shorts on the MTB for shorter rides.
For comparison I generally ride the endura pro sl (also normally on a great discount at wiggle) but have previously ridden le col, rapha pro team, stolen goat, 2xu, Castelli, howies, muddy fox. So a mix of high end and less so.
Hth
DHB = Wiggle
fwiw, I've found their more expensive bibs (Aeron) to be decent for longer rides, got some of the cheaper ones too and I only really use them for short rides on the turbo.
