Replacing chamois in bibs
Has anyone ever changed a chamois in their bibs ? I have a pair of LG bibs, that i have only worn like 6 times and i hate the chamois. When i went for a ride they would hurt so bad that i couldn't even last an hour in them.

certain pros do it with a certain companies chamois.

Kucharik clothing does replace pads for $30: http://www.kucharikclothing.com/-c-2...68b681cb3cbcf7
I hear they do very good work. I'm thinking I'll send them two pairs of Assos bibs with broken stitching to repair... |

find new bibs that you like.
If you're obligated to wear a particular short as part of a team kit, and you hate it, it might make sense to change the pad. Otherwise, it would rarely be worth the cost and hassle imho. |
Nike uses Giordana chamois and they can be had on ebay really inexpensively.
|
Really? Why would i do that when i have 6 pairs already.

You need to speak with Kucharik personally about repair work. I asked about triathlete wear and he said no because some are made with minimum layers and the stitching just won't hold up. He's got to see it first.

I have several pair of Kucharik shorts and love them. They are well made and the pads are great. For $29.00 they are better than my $100 Pearl Izumi shorts.

Did you get the bright green chamois in Elite shorts? Our team recently got out custom order w/ the bright green chamois. The bibs fit great, but the chamois is the most uncomfortable pad I've ever worn. A few riders complained of getting sores around the edge/stitching. I might look into getting my 3 team bib chamois replaced.
