A while ago I ordered these shorts: https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005009734029244.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.80.37865c5fmQUKra&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu (HISERWA Pro Team)

The quality of the short is very good, quite comfy also on longer rides.

My only problem so far is the length of shoulder straps - they are a bit short.

Do you have any recommendations where the lower part (legs) is more less the same, but has longer shoulder straps?

Take this to a seamstress. They will put in a flexi fabric on your straps. Problem solved for few $$$. These are very good quality bibs, I agree.

Both have longer legs then most of the bibs on ali. YKYW tend to be fitted for someone with a longer torso but I don't have the bibs you linked so can't compare.

Thx a lot for the suggestions. I have ordered one from YKYW and will report how the fit is.

@crazyravr: I also had the same idea, will do it most likely on the one I already have.

recently got this bib shorts in brown. the seller is Pimmer and seems to be selling some specxel items as well

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008703652763.html?

i requested this to not have any branding, as i just want a clean looking brown bib and got exactly what i wanted.

This is a nice quality but affordable bib shorts. I am 157cm tall and 75kg and the size large did fit me well - not too tight, nor loose.

The stitches are well done, brown color is exactly as pictured, shoulder straps are nice and elastic, and the back is well ventilated to keep you cool when riding.

Leg grippers provide a nice grip in keeping the bib from riding up your legs

The chamois is surprisingly good enough for me as well, providing ample support and comfort when paired with my berk saddle riding around 1-2hrs and possibly longer. Also promotes mobility when pedaling fast while on the saddle.

Not sure if the chamois pad is a 'legit' EI pad but it was surprisingly comfortable, didn't move around and stayed in a balanced position and didn't get in the way or cause any friction/chafing on sensitive areas.

One negative tho, and quite minor is my order somewhat came stained with yellow spots - one on the strap and another at the back.

The stains were not easily noticeable unless you really scrutinize it. I've reported it to the seller immediately and sent them photos, and they gave me a partial refund right away - no questions asked!


As i was satisfied with this purchase, i bought a spexcel cargo bibs from them as well - it was cheaper overall from them for the same item/s being sold by spexcel, albeit limited colors to choose from

Hi all, I am quite tall (2m), usually have no big issues with tops, but when I need to wear something on my legs it’s always too short. So I’m looking at bibshorts currently, I have a pair of Isadore Alternative bibs in size L, which are nice and long enough. But I want to test out some aliexpress bibs, do you guys recommend any bibs that have longer inseam?

If they made this in a short sleeve version I'd definitely try it out.

I've given in to the race suit and I have both the YKYWBike and Spexcel options on their way to me:

Should be able to report back on them in a couple weeks. Went for a size M in both - 80cm waist, 90cm chest, 175cm, 71kg.

I am 194cm tall, 97kg

Darvie 4XL is almost perfect except the shoulder straps are not as comfortable as the YKYWBike straps. Darvie ones are little short…

YKYWBike in 3XL - Almost perfect but the opening around the legs is a little too wide, if it was 1cm smaller it would be perfect. I really like them super comfortable and amazing quality of the price so I’ll take them to the seamstress to see if they can make the leg openings a little tighter

Hope it helps!

I really want to try the Cheji roadsuit with the aero sleeves and mesh pits, but its only available in black. Why make a summer suit only in black?

Yeah, the big sizes are what I’m trying to avoid, they are way too loose for me and usually ride up, I’m 15kg lighter than you, so it’s a bit difficult to find the right size. I’m probably going to order a pair of Lameda bibs, they have a few reviews of people that say they are far too long for them, so I hope they will be just right for me.

Cut the sleeve and iron on elastic. That's not laser cut, but in my eyes even better (it's not curling as some last cut is doing) but still has invisible edges.
The tape is special material, of course. It's not the one Ikea puts to their curtains  ;D

I have a roll of this material and I use it frequently.

Spexcel might be a good option. For 190cm, 80kg their XL bibs work well for me

Hiserwa bibs

I am 192cm tall and weigh 85kg and was looking for bibs that are a bit longer than only about 2/3 of my thigh.
I do like my Darevie bibs and when I saw those Hiserwa bibs I thought I’ll try them.
They do look exactly like the Darevie ones, only longer. On top they have an Elastic Interface chamois.
They came and it’s a big disappointment.
The chamois might well be an original but it’s lower tier: hard, inflexible, thick, very spongy.
What made me return them was the fabric: it’s much thinner than the Korea Lycra of the Darevie, stretches only a little bit horizontally and hence there is no compression on my hips, thighs and legs.
Would not recommend.

Has anyone tried these LAMEDA bib shorts?

The sizing chart seems a bit off. Normally I am a EU-L/Asien-XL but with this size chart I am at the upper end of Asian-XXL.
Also, if you have tried them, how long are the straps compared to the rest of the sizing? I am looking for bibs with slightly longer straps.

What're favourites here when it comes to china bib shorts?

I was elsewhere hearing about Rion and YKYWBike - is that also getting praise here or rather something else?
