Giving Assos a try
I noticed a couple of weeks ago that wiggle had some Assos bibs for a less than totally ridiculous price, so decided to try out a pair. They arrived today. Hope they live up to the hype.
I also hope they're the right size. I'm 5'7" with a 32" waist, which was supposed to be a medium, based on the chart. They don't feel loose, but not as snug as my IP Microsensors. We'll see.

If you have the proper size, chances are they will be your favorite. I only use my Castelli, PI Slice, Sugois, and LGs on the trainer now...or in desperation.

+1 on following up. Maybe he's out riding. I just ordered a pair of the F1.Mille S5 from slanecycles, pretty good deal.
