any difference between bib shorts(dhb)?

[musa]

I've got the roubaix bib shorts by dhb (wiggle)

but I'm looking to get better 3/4 bib that stay in place so saw these
http://www.wiggle.co.uk/dhb-pace-padded-34-bib-tight/ would i see or feel much difference from the roubaix pair?

They don't have the roubaix 3/4 in large but the pace in large, however I can live with medium for the roubaix's 3/4s

The pad is thinner and the stitching will be different.

Personally I wear padded bib shorts all year round. Then if needs be I add 3/4 or full length gear (unpadded) over the top.

ahh ok I was aware the pad will be thinner. Either I purchase the roubaix ones or get unpadded.

is that just tights or bib shorts (u)

i got the roubax 3/4 and they are superb.

 

[musa]

Ahh yeah so it'll be worth getting those over the pace ones?

 

[jowwy]

yep for me it was a no brainer - better pad and warmer for the latter part of the year

 

[musa]

Ahh thanks. Think that's decided.

Is there a big advantage with bib shorts over normal padded shorts

 

[musa]

They stay in place. At times I'm having to pull my shorts up and making adjustment

It's different from person to person. Since wearing bibs a lot easier

bib shorts also keeps my lower back warmer, which i always get a problem with
