Portly shorts
I'm having trouble finding good-fitting bike shorts. My waistline needs
an XL short, but my inseam wants an M, if you know what I mean. Shorts with large enough waistlines are too long for me. Does anyone know of a particular short which features a shorter inseam for those of us with wider waistlines? Thanks, - Bob |

I've found bib shorts the only way to go. The waist line doesn't fold down under, nor is there any undo pressure around the waist. And you avoid the dreaded plumber's butt. I haven't worn short since I tried my first bib. Performance's house brand bibs come in sizes for those of us whom gravity makes awesome on descents! I also really like the DiMarchi Contour Bib plus as well... finding them much more comfortable than the performance shorts but more expensive as well. HTH YMMV |
