Black Bibs Ultimate Winter

I have not ridden these outdoors yet. But I have trained in them. They do what bibs are supposed to do. I am not sure I like that they are shorts and I have to use leggings to get full coverage. Keeping up with the leggings will be a hassle and I am not sure they will stay up properly - we shall see. One other thing - the straps are a little short. I am 6'5" with a long torso so maybe the 2xl are the wrong size for me. We shall see.

These are great on cool/cold morning rides of which we have had too many of late this year (2026). When I have to wear cold weather gear in early June, something is wrong with either me oir the weather. Black Bibs gear wears well and washes well and easily.

Great value

This was my first pair of bibs ordered from Black Bibs. I originally ordered an XL which is my size with other bibs I wear but they were much to tight. I swapped out for 2XL which was a much better fit and I'm 5ft 10in. at 195 but I do have pretty large thighs. The swap out to the larger size was super easy. I rode in them today with temps around 40 for about two hours and they did the trick keeping me warm, which I believe they will work well into the low 30's. Again the 2XL fit me fine and they were comfortable. I also have Voler and Mavic winter bibs but they are twice the price. So yes they are an outstanding value.
