New Jersey and knicks/bibs
Postby Stackhat » Thu Mar 19, 2009 8:26 pm
Realise that Assos and Capoforma etc are meant to be the absolute business though their prices are hideously expensive. Are they that good or just brand name? and is there something maybe half as expensive that is also good quality and are comfortable. Have had cheap knicks before though they don't last long and aren't very well made so looking to step upto something better. Opinons?

I am looking at a Sugoi pair of knicks in the near future. I have a pair of Ground Effects knicks which I feel are good value.
I personally find Nalini knicks (team ones) and shorts are nothing special and for around the same $$$ can get better quality knicks, e.g., Ground Effect.
Regards
Andrew

+1, Don't rate those cheap PBK Nalini bibs very highly, though the higher grade stuff might be OK.
I bought some dhb bibs from Wiggle a while ago which I think are great for the price (about $70 then IIRC)

The near future turned out to be Saturday. I got a pair of Sugoi RS bib knicks for $235.00. Very nice indeed.

I've read on other cycling forums that they are see through. Put me off buying them.

To jakalope........mate you may be better to post this question in the Buying a Bike/Parts section.
Welcome to the forum by the way.

Cheers,
