I was impressed with the quality of the product. But most importantly the padding was excellent. It conformed well to my body and provided great cushioning without too much bulk. An incredible value for the money.
4XL (regular) - 6'3" @ 240 lbs
I bought these winter bibs on the back of buying 2 short bibs for summer. The sizing is perfect and fits like it should. The thermal lining is way better quality and compared to my other winter bibs do the job of keeping you warm with possibly not having to wear additional warmers .
The service is second to none as you are in knowledge of your shipment from the moment you purchase the bibs, and for the price it's speaks for itself as you can buy cheaper but you buy twice, having said all that I am happy to have red white apparel as my long ongoing choice of bibs .
When I ordered the bibs they arrived within the time advised. On trying them on there was a small defect with the stitching. When I contacted Yuva he replied the same day and advised that a replacement set would be sent immediately. These also arrived quickly as advised.
Communication and customer service cannot be faulted.
A long ride for me is 60 miles and I have had no problems with the bibs on rides of this distance, the quality of the the pad and material is excellent. I have more expensive bibs and these are every bit the equal and better value for money.
I think these will get even better after a few rides when I settle into them.
Very comfortable. I wore the bibs on an 85 mile road cycling event and had no chafing. I will be riding several 100 mile daily segments in a cross-country event from August to October 2024, which will really test the durability and comfort of these bibs.
So far so good, furthest ride so far around 60 miles and found them very comfortable.
I used the cargo bibs during this years Pan Celtic Magnum Opus race. The pad is really comfortable and dried quickly on the days that I washed the bibs in the shower. Leg pockets are a must for me on any shorts, but the addition of the large rear pocket was great. I regularly used it store my waterproofs or additional food so I could access them when riding. I had a pair of Rapha cargo bibs waiting for me in my drop bag when I arrived in the Isle of Man, but I chose to continue with the RedWhite bibs instead as they were so comfortable.
Measured as suggested and ordered a large - when they arrived they seemed overly tight - spoke to Yuva and he recommended persevering with them for 3 rides before passing judgement - so glad I did - shorts are super comfortable - supportive but not restrictive and the pad is also comfy but not too thick and ‘nappy like’ - pockets are a definite plus as well - on other shorts I have used weight in the pocket can cause the lycra to twist and stretch affecting the fit - not the case here so far .I have tried a number of endurance shorts from a variety of brands - Rapha,Assos,Albion but these are my favourites
Changing brands when it comes to Bibs can sometimes be risky. Will they fit like my usual brand? Will they be as good? I've had my R&W Bibs for about a month now and use them twice a week (80-100kms each ride) The Bibs are great. High quality material. Padding is firm and supportive. Leg grippers are wide and comfortable. The lyrca is light weight and very breathable - perfect Summer bibs. They are as good as my more expensive bibs. So if you're looking for a comfortable, well made set of Bibs at a competitive price. Go with these.
I first tried out the RedWhite bibs in Spring, 2023. Since then I've bought 3 more. I do a lot of 4+ hour rides and they are simply the best bibs I have for long rides. I've been riding for >35 years and tried a lot of brands over the years. There are certainly other quality products out there, but these represent the best value IMO.
Size was perfect - exactly as recommended. They are super comfy and supportive, so much that I forgot I was wearing them on the first long ride I took. I’ll definitely be purchasing another.
I'm a huge fan of these bibs - super comfy for 100+ mile days and really take the pain out of multi-day rides.
An open pack of Haribo fits perfectly in the leg pockets - ideal for fuelling up.
I would recommend paying close attention to the size guidance, whilst I'm a standard M or L size in the UK for clothes, I run to a 2XL in these bibs (perfect fit and any smaller would be uncomfortable).
Within only a few weeks of using these I've bought a second pair for my upcoming LeJog effort.
Purchased my bibs in March noticed that the hemming wasn't ideal, forgot all about it until Jun. I attempted to get a replacement, contacted Yuva and he replaced it in good faith. (only comment was for me to have done the replacement earlier). And within days the new cargo bibs arrived.
Oh, In our communications, Yuva did check my earlier purchases and noticed that I suggested that I size up as the cargo bibs were tighter (the skinny me said it wasn't necessary).... still, I like his service!!
So far these have been very good bib shorts. The pad is quite thick and takes a little bit to get used to it. At first I thought it was too thick but now I’m getting along nicely with how it feels.
The pockets are great for stashing extra food and snacks.
These are great shorts, fit well, super comfy, extra pockets are great, and Yuva was really helpful on sizing.
First off, the customer service is excellent. Yuva was able to help size the correct bib to my frame quite quickly. Every response was quick and I didn’t wait long at all!
Secondly, the bibs performance is outstanding. They held up well to a 200 mile (321 km) ride in one day! The temperature was in the mid 90s and I didn’t ever feel like I was overheating. Sure, I was sore after the ride by the padding and support helped me a lot better than any other bib for that amount of time. The material is of good quality and with handwashing, it will definitely last a long time. I love all of the pockets. I had them stocked with all sorts of goodies and it never felt like anything was getting in the way.
Overall, I’ll probably be buying another set. These bibs are the way to go! Couldn’t be happier!
Second redwhite bib, and there is nothing on the market as comfortable. The chamois placement may seem awkward to some on first wear, but you quickly realize that every other chamois doesn't cushion your sit bones the way redwhite does, which is the way it's supposed to!
Bought the bib short for a 205 miler, the process was easy and the sizing tool was accurate.
The bib fits well and as promised no issues and felt comfy for the 13 hours of cycling.
This is my second purchase of red white bib shorts. They give me the best cushioning for 5+ hour rides. I didn’t realize how worn out my old ones had gotten after 2 to 3 seasons of heavy use, the new ones have much more plushness in the padding. I will still use the old ones for shorter rides!
I bought the shorts in April but waited until I had done a variety of rides before giving a review. Firstly, quality: very good. An excellent finish with plenty of support. With regards ride comfort I now think that the shorts live up to expectations and the claims made in their publicity. If your saddle is correct ( height, width for sit bones and so on)then these padded shorts are definitely better than others such as my Enduro shorts. I did a 7.5 hour ride last weekend and suffered no saddle soreness. I can see though that if you don't get the other ride variables sorted then you won't get to the best results from these shorts.
Very happy to recommend.
Good fit and comfort. I am 200 lbs, Glutes 43", waist 43, chest 42, belly 43, height: 5' 10, size 3XL. Contact Yuva if any problem deciding on size: Was very patient with me. These are comfortable on long rides - Have done a century in them,
I am 177 and 64 kg, had The Bib M size and it just disappeared when wearing. Cargo M size feels more tight. And it feels thicker in hot conditions. Also had some chafing on the edges of chamois (which I've never had with The Bib shorts). Probably will buy The Bib without pockets next time. But anyway it's a good quality product, buy it if you really need pokets. If you don't, buy The Bib
You will NOT be disappointed if you buy these bibs. They are simply AMAZING for indoor cycling. I don't wear anything else anymore. Super comfortable!
I bought these cargo shorts ahead of a 134 mile Sportive hoping that they would keep my backside comfortable. I also thought that the pockets would be useful for gels.
The shorts are really comfortable and I had no soreness or chafing. The pockets are really useful but invisible if you’re not using them.
The sizing guide worked well and I’m very happy with the fit.
I bought the cargo bib short for two reasons:
1-I’m short legged and a bit chunky, so often normal bib shorts are too long. I ordered the 2inch shorter version and they fit well - like normal shorts on a tall person!
2-I like to have the additional cargo pockets for snacks and debris. These bib shorts give me ample extra storage.
I’m hoping that red white will produce a 2 inch shorter version of their winter cargo tights as well. If they do, I’ll buy!
