2XU Compression Cycle Bib Tights

BikeRadar verdict

35 out of 5 stars

"Excellent compression and top-level comfort, at a price"

Sat 7 Nov 2009, 4:00 pm UTCBy Mat Brett, Cycling Plus

These longs are much tighter in the lower leg than higher up to improve your circulation by promoting blood flow upwards towards the heart, and they also support your muscles to reduce fatigue.

The fabric is fine 70 denier Lycra, the mesh upper is very breathable and broad straps keep things comfortable over your shoulders.

The multi-density Fusion Pro seatpad provides stretchy, sweat-free cushioning, while extra comfort comes courtesy of flatlocked seams positioned cleverly to prevent rubbing.

They feel great on and the build quality is excellent, but the price tag might make you wince. There’s also a non-bib women’s version available for £145.
