    FAQs

    Should bib shorts be tight?

    Snug like a second skin. No bunching, no slipping. Chamois must sit firmly against the body without movement to prevent saddle sores.

    Sized differently from regular shorts?

    Yes. Bibs run smaller than equivalent shorts because the lycra needs to stretch firmly. Many cyclists size up 1 from regular shorts.
