I just got a pair of these. They were in a 'Bicycling' rag as a good buy. The 'Ultra' bibs have the Performance gel chamois that I don't particularly care for. The Elite is really comfortable and for $79 you can't go wrong. I go on Tuesday at lunch to get the 10% off special and then I get 10% more back because of a Performance membership. You can't beat it.
You might say that they steal your soul or something, but if you do your own bike work and don't mind wearing stuff that's black, then they have some pretty decent deals.
