MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Hello.
Unfortunately I only discovered Aussie grit in their closing down sale. I luckily purchased a pair of their bibbed baggy shorts and they have been superb. Are there any alternatives available - a quick google search has not been very fruitful. Due to my stocky build I have found the baggy shorts / built in bib a winning combination as I’ve always had problems with baggy shorts going south on a ride. Thanks
I have the same issue, too late to the party and only scored a couple of AG items.
I started a similar thread a few months back looking for alternatives but didn't really get a satisfactory answer TBH.
for much of the last six months I've pretty much lived in the one AG gilet I managed to score before they went bust, I have other gilets, they're just not as good (especially for the money)...
AG are gone, I'm not on a castelli, Rapha or Assos budget either...
I've literally just ordered some Galibier pro 5 liberate cargo bibs. Again they're a new brand to me, but appear to do solid VFM, well thought out kit, if I get along well with the bibs I might just spring for one of their gilets later in the year.
Can recommend Galibier stuff, good value in the scale of things
Try Scott they do a bibbed baggy short with built in liner
Start fitness may have them in sale
Also don’t know why the above have said Galiber as they don’t do a bibbed baggy short
Another alternative would be the Endura ClickFast system.
Thanks for the suggestions. I’ll check them out
Scott RC pro Hybrid shorts, there’s some on eBay
Also don’t know why the above have said Galiber as they don’t do a bibbed baggy short
Sorry I wasn't really answering the OP question, more stating some understanding, I've not found a better gilet than AG's for the money...
Someone mentioned Scott shorts from
startfitness, funnily enough I still ride in the last pair of Scott baggies I had for start, they're great, but I've not spotted any bib-baggies on there...
I always thought Aussie Grit were a bit of a copy of Ground Effect clothing anyway.
R2 bikes have the Scott rc hybrid shorts in
Another alternative would be the Endura ClickFast system.
Never worked for me - connections just didn't seem to be in the right place at all so neither the baggy nor the undershort ended up fitting properly.
