Any recommendations for bibless tights without a pad? Anybody got the dhb Merstons?
Also, just out of interest, do people wear their padded shorts over or under their unpadded tights?
I am currently using Under Armour cold gear tights, I wear them over my lycra padded shorts and under my baggies.
in fact I am off to JJB now to get another pair.
endura for me from now on. awesome.
dhb's are fine and top value for money.
surely you should always wear your padded shorts next to your skin!?!?
Gore with windstopper fronts. Shorts underneath - toasty.
I bought some bib-less pad-less DHB Merston's before xmas. They're my first set of tights, so I've nothing to compare them against, but I'm pleased with them.
Seem well sewn together. Rubber grippers at the ankles hold them in place well. Reflective details to keep you seen.
I've been wearing them with a pair of pad-less (I don't really get on with pads) Endura Singletrack Shorts over them and have been cosy all winter.
Shorts underneath is what I would have thought - just reading reviews on Wiggle and some folk saying shorts on top. Does seem odd.
Padded shorts under tights here but I know a fella who swears you should put shorts over tights.
lusso max repel. cheap, toasty, water repellent and a good fit.
I would think it obvious
Baggies - tights go underneath
Lycra - tights go outside
topangarider - I will wear shorts for 9 months of the year so I wanted some cheap ones.Got some of these:

Been fine so far. Also solve the problem of where to wear your shorts. Padding seems fine so far...
I want unpadded to I can wear them for running too though. Cheers for the tip tho'.
I'm using Gore ones - got them cheap on ebay, but would pay full price. Comfy and windproof panels work well. Need to size carefully though - quite snug. Also didn't disintergrate when I slid along the road on Friday morning, which is more than can be said for my leg!!
Endura Stealth Lite with padded Lycra under and baggies over, minus the baggies if on the road bike. Never thought I'd ever get any but WOW there mint.
Altura kinetic with lycra underneath. I prefer them unpadded as I own many pairs of lycra shorts and not that many bibs so if it's dry and cold I can re wear them without having to wash them.
dHb Bibs all the way...
Oh, and I've ot the Finchdean ones... awesome bit of kit...
Endura leg warmers-work great and about £20
Endura Stralth extreme,waterproof,very warm,with a pair of sealskin socks,keep feet dry and warm,sizing can be a bit of a problem.
