Shorts vs bibs
I'm thinking about getting a new pair of shorts with a chamois, but since bibs are just a little bit more expensive I want to know what other members' experiences have been.

I actually have both and wear both, but they say once you have tried bibs, you won't go back to regular shorts. I certianly feel and I think you'll find that many others on this forum, feel that bibs are WAY better and more comfortable than shorts. I would agree with them also!
