Choosing the perfect bib tights

MTB & road bib tights are essential winter cycling wear as they are in direct contact with the saddle and your skin. They frequently, though not all, incorporate a pad that will increase the comfort of your cycling experience. Optimal breathability and moisture transfer, they prevent chafing and unpleasant abrasions. Protecting you from the wind and cold in winter, they should be worn next to the skin and not with a short or slip underneath to optimise the antibacterial properties and garment design. Bib tights (with straps) provide excellent fit and support during rides and are often used for XC and trail riding. However, some cyclists prefer strapless bib tights as they are lighter and are frequently worn for downhill training. Some models integrate hip and thigh protection into the garment. There is also a range of branded women’s bib tights, That have been specifically designed for the female morphology, again with or without straps.

What else do I need apart from bib tights for winter?

To be perfectly equipped in winter, you may need more than bib tights, for example, a short (worn outside the bib tight) or cycling pants, the aim being to have a supplementary garment to complete your legwear. They also offer more ride storage space and options to add some style to your riding. There are other accessories that can be worn in winter, notably overshoes to deal with the cold or a pair of winter-specific cycling shoes.
