CEROTIPOLAR Cycling Bibs Men, Long Riding Pad Bicycle Biking Bib Shorts UPF50+

I regularly test out budget and mid range kit of new companies to see if there is an up and comer that has something to offer. A lot of budget kit uses the same cool-max jersey material and the same chamois that leaves A LOT to be desired. I stumbled on this company and decided to try it out. I bought their whole kit; jersey, bibs and vest. I purchased their cargo bibs because I wanted to see how much more convenient the extra storage was…..turns out significantly. I tested this jersey out on the hottest day of the year so far and surprisingly, it evaporated the sweat as fast as I could provide it and never became fully saturated. Something I can’t say for even my more expensive kit. I have decent Pactimo, Pearl Izumi and my nicest kit is a Hincapie set that is the only other kit I have to use the wide arm band with gripper material. You can see in the close-up that the sleeve material is woven and transparent. This same material is on the side panels. Extremely cool and wicking 👍. The vest is a perfect combination of wind breaking, wicking and cooling. Not 100% windproof, but just enough to stop the chill and also allow enough flow to wick sweat and evaporate. I also like that it is completely unbranded. The bibs are extremely comfortable. The chamois is on par with my best long distance bibs. My only complaint is that the legs are a touch long for my taste but that’s just preference. I would prefer them 1-2” shorter. The grippers are wide and comfortable. The extra storage makes keeping a phone or placing wrappers super easy. As far as training kit goes, this is top rung in my lineup at the moment. They also make custom kit from their website. Jersey: $33.90 Bibs: $36.99 Vest: $29.99

Yep great piece of riding gear. Not out of the saddle for 80klms. Comfortable

As a MTB rider of 30km power day who uses Pearl Azumi, Giant or other known brands I would rate these nicks as a 7 or of 10, good price but the shamy is too thick, needs to be about 50% thinner. They feel like I image you are wearing a nappy. Also the material is very shiny which means it slips on seat, hopefully gets better with more rides.

XL in the black-7 with pockets. I’m 5’10” 195#. TT bike with ISM Adamo saddle. I was hesitant after a bad Tri suit experience. I’m pleasantly surprised with these. Are they high end Zoo+ or LG, no. But for the price these will be my training bibs. They are comfortable. The pad is a little bulky and I agree with one other review that said it felt a little far back, but I ride far forward on the nose of the saddle so you may be fine on a normal road bike saddle. On the trainer after 30 miles or so I had some numbness but today did 65 miles outside in them without much issue. No chafing at all!!! I used chamois cream but had no hot spots from seams or stitching. That’s a major win. The side pockets are an open mesh that will securely hold an iPhone 12 promax. Overall these won’t be my race or event day bibs but I’ll wear them for training and I’ll likely buy another pair to save the good bibs for race day.

2 pair I bought medium grey first I'm 5'10" 145lbs normal proportioned torso slimmer legs at the knee, cycle lots, not super muscular but fit 66 yrs old. Bought large black 2nd. Medium were a bit tight on the shoulder straps, large was A1 4me. Both had issues with the leg fit at the bottom they had to be taken in one inch. Luckily my wife has a surger sewing machine and she tightened them, a quick fix both fit great now she may add a bit of extra shoulder strapping to the medium to lessen the stress on my shoulders. Bottom line the pockets are fantastic pads are big and on my trainer feel pretty darn good. 4 me Large would be the better choice but if you have slimmer legs they'll bag out or flare out at the bottom worth finding a seamstress to take them in for the price of these bibs.
