Doing 5 or 6 trainer rides a week, I need the good stuff ON the trainer.
Trainer bibs
I use them on the trainer. If you have a seat that fits you well the chamois shouldnât matter too much.
Iâm only using old bibs for short rides and workouts, around 45 minutes or less. One four year old pair have been used so much they are ready for the DIY water ballon launcher project
Yeah, well. That is heavily volume/intensity dependent. I donât really need much of a chamois when riding 90% of FTP but 60% is another story. Similarly, 3 hours a week is different to 12 hours a week.
EBay
seriously, someone will buy them.
I agree with selling them on ebay.
But label them as Astronaut Diapers and fetch a pretty penny.
I personally wouldnât buy 2nd hand bib knicks. But I do have several pairs hardly worn, and rather give them away to a junior and help them. Infact Ill go through my drawers and pull out old jerseys and knicks and do that over the weekend.
Keep them and when you put a hole in a pair of good bibs a seamstress can cut a patch out of the old ones. She (he) can then fix your nice new pair almost as good as new. Its hard to repair the tear in bibs but they can be patched for a very small fee by a professional seamstress!
