Yes I have them. They are fine, nice and comfy, good pad and have served me well for many a mile.
You have both of them ianrauk? If so do you have a preference as the Altura Bibs are on offer for £39.99 which seems like a good deal.
Thanks to everyone else. Shutt VR keep popping up as well.

Vote for SHutt VR here also!
In order of preference (as posted elsewhere)

New Shutt Pro Bibs (This season's new model)
Shutt Pro Bibs - previous design and then
CAstelli Velossimo (Or whatever)

Really cannot stress how happy I have been in my dealings with Shutt - get the Club10 discount for signing on to their site.

If price no issue - nobody I have ever come across with Assos have anything but good to say about them!

Planet-X usually sell branded shorts cheap.
I recently bought some Bergamo Evo Bibs (the last in med/black) which have a pretty good pad for £30 (rrp £80). Fine for 75miles at least.
Also some Nalini shorts reduced there.

Not too impressed with the Shutt VR Pro. I got mine 2 years ago and I guess I got 40 - 50 rides out of them. They felt really nice to start with but they started falling apart after a while. The new ones might be better but in all honesty I would not buy another pair. When one considers that some cheap shorts from Halfords I purchased 5 years ago are still going.

Did you go back to them with your concerns? As I have said, my own dealings with them have been 1st class. Try speaking to them even now. They seem keen on customer service and are also trying to establish their brand further. They wont want bad PR as they are not the cheapest around obviously. Email Pete in the office.

No, I didn't go back to them, perhaps I should have but it's too late now.
