    'NICE, DURABLE, STITCHING BEHIND KNEE IRITATES THO'
    Strengths:
    Warm & durable. Chamois is comfy as well.
    Weaknesses:
    Stitching behind the knees causes major iritation after an hour or so. Can now only wear these with leg warmers (good for cold weather, but not otherwise)
    Overall:
    Good value - just a pity about the stitching.

    'VERY COMFY, VERY COMFY'
    Strengths:
    comfortable.
    great fit.
    warm.
    water repellant.
    Weaknesses:
    I guess the only thing is that the bib style is a bit harder to put on. (Worth the effort though)
    Overall:
    After riding well into December in my shorts I decided something warmer was needed. After reading a couple of reviews I thought I'd give these a go.

    The tights have a beautiful fleece lining that makes them extremely comfortable to wear. The outside fabric is water repellant.

    I have been wearing them everyday to commute 30 minutes to work. I have worn them in the worst weather this winter - snow - and have not got cold. In the warmer weather so far they have also been very comfortable and not sweaty at all.

    This was my first go at the bib style short and they are excellent. The fit is great and very comfortable in the saddle.

    The padded lining is very comfortable. They say you can wear them without scruds - I tried - but I reckon you'd have to wash them too often.

    I would recommend these to anyone considering something warmer and comfier than normal bike shorts.

    The other guy that has reviewed them gives them 5 for everything. After reading the "how to" choose a ranking I have given them 4 in each category. I would recommend them but I'm not going to go round crapping on about them.

    'GREAT FIT, NICE PRICE...'
    Strengths:
    great fit and thanks to the bib they stay in place all day...
    I guess in this country they'd be ideal all year round, as I got mine last summer, odd time of year for 3/4 bibs I know, but i needed something comfy and bullit proof, to replace my rapidly thinning old shorts, and so far these haven't let me down.
    Weaknesses:
    the lettering on the leg side panels seems to be falling off, and now just spells E with the funny arrow by the knee.
    Overall:
    I'd recomend these over any of the other 3/4 bibs out there.

    'WARM, COMFY AND A NICE PRICE'
    Strengths:
    Very comfortable
    Excellent Fit
    Really warm
    Great value
    Weaknesses:
    Nothing I can think of
    Overall:
    Really comfortable and excellent fitting.
    Keep you warm when its cold out - but not too warm.
    Have read loads of reviews raving on about them - but they were even better than I expected. Essential winter buy.

    Warm - even riding on frozen trails last weekend

    Comfy pad
    Excellent for the money
    Weaknesses:
    No zip in the front, so a bit of a faff if you are caught short

    Great value, warm and comfy - what more do you need?
