Women's Ultimate Bibs
Let customers speak for us
Shows my soft side when pushing 500Watt. I don't know why I did a review for a cycling bottle!!!
After the first ride the chamois felt like it got broken in and these bibs are very comfortable. Washed after each ride and had 3 consecutive days of 34 miles each. The exterior felt slick on the first two rides but no issues. I will order more!
Great vest with vibrant color, nice material quality, and 2-way zipper. Two rear pockets are great for storing extra food, phone, etc. and the 2-way zipper makes it easy to get to your jersey pockets (an unexpected bonus). It compacts down nicely to tuck into a jersey pocket if the temps rise. (I wear a women's medium race fit TBB jersey and find the XS to be a good slim fit -- I am 5'6", 130 lbs, and have a slim torso.)
Great fit. No pinching or slipping. Solid construction. My new go to shorts. No frills just fit, comfort and a very reasonable price. And made in the USA.
I had my first ride with these today on suburban mtb/gravel trails. Temps were warm (~60) and my hands were neither hot nor cold. I could probably use these down to 50 degrees with no problem. The palm has some padding, but not a lot. I generally ride gloves with no padding, so it took a minute to get used to the extra bulk. After an hour, though, I didn’t notice the padding at all, and the fit was very good. I generally wear a men’s small, and the small size in this glove was perfect. The construction is very good.
I’m really pleased with them. They look great and feel great. Really impressed with how they perform!
This fall I have been testing the "top end" models from Pearl Izumi and Craft and none have the comfort as the Ultimate Chamois on The Black Bibs, esp. while in the aero or time trial position. The trend with the other brands seems to be a new short pad design, making them less comfortable for TT use. I used these bibs earlier this month on a 24-hour race -- usually for such events I have to re-apply chamois lube part way through...but not with these. Perfect...please don't change the chamois pad.
These were delivered on a Friday. Wore them on my birthday ride (81 miles) the next morning. Zero discomfort for the entire distance. Definitely recommend!
After one ride these new bibs are a strong contender as the first choice for my next multiday adventure. I'm as sweater and typically everything runs downhill. That means my nether regions tend to get as swampy as a Louisiana bog.
Butt (see what I did there?) NO MORE!...I say..."Breathability" is an understatement. The sheen on my leather saddle was west Texas dry post ride this time around. Typically it has stains and drips like the tear stains of the unfortunate soul who held my bike by the saddle one time...but I digress...Black Bibs with another win!
Perfect for both kiddos!
My first wear was a 128mi ride. The Adventure bibs and summer jersey exceeded expectations. I will be buying Black Bibs again.
Woohoo!
At 5’10” and 129 lbs I am built like a “tour” climber. Taking an XS short size they are usually waaaay go short. I guess most manufacturers think that if you are XS you an 5’2”! The tall version in XS fit to about 2” above my knee. I have 9 pairs. If you are tall and thin buy these shorts. Plus, they are good comfortable shorts.
I’ve got six pairs, from the adventure to the base model, and they’re all worthy of a hundred-k on the tandem. I’m very particular about my bibs and these punch way above their price tag. I can’t recommend them highly enough. They’re outstanding. The chamois is a huge upgrade to those from a few years ago. Almost as good as the big “S”.
It’s really hard to find cycling bibs with a short inseam, nearly impossible. I’m 5’4” and these are the first pair I’ve found that while are not 100% perfect for my height, they come very close. The leg grips help keep them in place even though they are longer when I stand up. In the saddle they fit really nicely. They are a great value too and quite comfortable.
