They breathe extremely well. Pinkbike's biggest complaint was the pockets on the back not being able to hold water. I did a ride with some 6 miles of descent, 30+mph in the Denver area with a small bottle in my back pocket and it never came out. SO TAKE THAT PINKBIKE. Pockets were also great for my keys and other storage too. The chamois might be even more comfortable than my other road bibs, because I did not even notice them.

Decent bibs, somewhat rigid chamois that folds in the crotch area; this is likely related to the way these fit me, if they were stretched further in by body it may not crease. Generally good bibs but I'm docking 2 stars for lack of support through the upper thighs and loose fitting through the crotch and bum. I find this to be an issue of all Rapha bib shorts, not specific to these because of the different mesh fabric. I tried sizing down from medium to small but feel like the seams will burst if I go that route. My body measurements are at the bottom end of medium and top end of small.

Excellent Bib Tight but needs more pockets. I got a medium and usually wear a medium. I’m a bit heavy at the moment, but these tights fit, well, tight but comfortable. The straps are stretched but also comfortable. Pad is great with tons of comfort. Thinking of getting a 2nd pair for multi day trips.

Unfortunately for me these bib liners have a fatal design flaw: the upper mesh portion is like a cheese grater across the nipples. I went on one short ride with these and my poor nipples were completely raw after being grated back and forth for a couple hours. I bought these hoping to use them for longer tours and bikepacking trips, but unfortunately the only way I'd be able to use them would be to put base a layer underneath to prevent the stitching and mesh area from causing unbearable chafing. Other Rapha bibs (which are excellent) do not have have the mesh / stitching crossing horizontally near the chest which is the source of the problem. I wish I had noticed this before deciding to keep them. For reference, I am 5'8" and 150lbs, and would strongly discourage ... MoreUnfortunately for me these bib liners have a fatal design flaw: the upper mesh portion is like a cheese grater across the nipples.

These liners tick all the boxes. They fit well, the shoulder straps are not too tight, the length is good, they breathe well, and the rear pockets are nice to have. I put my phone and wallet there as I do not like them flopping around in my trail shorts. I wish the outer fabric was a bit more grippy as my shorts seem to slide down too easily. On hot days I wear a shorter liner.
Sizing is different from road bibs, because mountain bikers are bigger? I’m a medium in all road kit and should have bought small. Compared to the Patagonia MTB bibs, these are less ventilated and also don’t have a central pocket for a bottle, which is a sad oversight. The shammy is great though, ample and comfortable for longer rides.
A little tighter than others in the crotch. I think I’m between sizes. Otherwise, I love the ample padding and the style.
Unfortunately, bib liner proved way too small despite following size chart, etc. But wasn't able to determine that until after wearing for a ride, at which point couldn't return. Hoping my wife can make use of them. So really can't speak to the quality for high price otherwise.
I bought a bunch of Specialized liners 7 years ago and while I was quite happy with them, they're all nearly dead. I thought the Specialized SWAT liners excelled at breathability and storage, but were lacking in the pad. When I bought them my average mountain bike ride was maybe an hour, but I've since relocated and now 3 and even 4 hour trail rides have become my norm.The pad in the Rapha shorts are certainly an upgrade, but I think improvements could be made to the rest of the liner. The ventilated side panels are great, but for a liner I think more of this is necessary (I'm in the Southeast). These probably won't be getting used on the hottest days, but I'm sure I'll constantly reach for them in the fall and winter months.My other gripe is that while the two ... MoreI bought a bunch of Specialized liners 7 years ago and while I was quite happy with them, they're all nearly dead.

This would be where I'd like to stash my cellphone. The two side pockets are a little small for a cellphone. If you do use one for a cellphone it feels off balance because I don't have anything else of comparable size to carry in the other pocket.These are good, but some small changes could make them great.
These are the bibs I wear most. I'm not a mountain biker but I wear these under normal clothes when I run everyday errands on the bike, and they work wonders. I wear them all day with no problems. Besides that, they're lightweight and the chamois is comfortable so I wear them on the indoor trainer. Very good pair of bibs, might have to get another set.
