Since Ive been having some stitching problems on my Y2/VT bibs the guy I bought them from on ebay is willing to sell me a pair of yfuso for 75$. Does anyone use the YFuso bibs? Ive been very happy with my castelli's I have now except for the stitching, which I think is just bad luck. At 75$ for a 150$ pair of bibs should I give them a go anyway? I have only the one pair of bibs and one pair of PI shorts. I would like another set of bibs so this sounds pretty good to me. Any experience with the YFuso would be appreciated.

On ebay his name is 'euromike', has over 1200 feedbacks, all positive. I dont think he has anything on there now. I bought mine from him at the start of october. He has a bike shop in seattle somewhere.
No one wears the yfuso shorts? Surely someone wears them or knows someone who does.

I have a pair of Yfusos and they aren't too bad.
I've dealt with Euromike before, good seller.
I heartily recommend you check out Etxe-Ondo
bibs I like them better than the Progettos, fusos, L.Garneaus and Peal Izumis.
Bicycle Hub (http://www.bicyclinghub.com/) carries the line.
One thing, they run VERY small (I normally wear a medium and have a pair
of X-Large that fit me fine) They are cut for small Euro riders (think Heras or
Beloki) and run short too.
