Over the last seven years my choice of bibshort has been the Assos T FI Mille, that is until this year when I learned they changed the design. I tried the new design and wasn’t impressed. I don’t care for the wide strap placement and lower cut in the front, uncomfortable for me. Now I’m using the Castelli Premio Bibshort and so far I’m impressed. These feel a lot like the my old Assos with slightly more compression.

As far as jerseys go I don’t spend a lot. I found a 40 dollar jersey works just as well as a 100 dollar plus jersey. Here in Houston where summer temperatures typically get in the triple digits there’s no wonder fabric that can wick the moisture away.
