Anyone ride in these? Any good? Colorado Cyclist has them for $75, good deal? Giordana is a good brand and I like the mesh straps on these and at a little less than I payed for my PI Ultrasensor shorts these seem a good deal.

I haven't used their shorts/bibs but i'm very happy with their jerseys. Giordana is a quality company.

I've got a couple of sets of their bibs (not those specific ones) and I'm very happy with them. Watch the Italian (small) sizing though.

My team use giordana, (really popular here in italy) and i think the quality is really good.

THey're sized differently from PI, that's for sure. I have a pair of their shorts in a large, and they don't fit at all. Try them on before you commit.

Love mine, sizing is really off, I think I own the XXL size, 6'4" / 170 lbs.

Hows the chamois in them? Pretty comfy? I'll have to try and find a store around here that carries them to try out the sizing.

well, i think the jersey and pant quality is really good and comfotable, about size.... it's difficult say something 'couse... you know.... it's always better try on everything before buy clothes and shoes... every body is different, you know... big arm, large shoulders means very long jesrsey!.... ciao

Anyone know where I can find a sizing chart? I tried their website but its not completed quite yet it says. I'm 5'8'' and change, weigh 138, waist probably 30 or so. With those measurments the sizing charts Ive seen place me right between medium and large a lot of the time, I dont consider myself a large so what would you guys recommend? I'm off course going to try some on but if they both fit pretty well should I go small or big?

I have a Giordano longsleeve jersey which I love. Very well made, cut just right. I'd have to think their bibs would be just as good.

I wear a 5 (a bit snug) but I'm 5'10, 170 lbs. I'd guess you'd wear a 3 or 4 but take that with a grain of salt.
