Re: [RBW] Re: [650B] ISO: lycra shorts without the diaper pad...
Have you looked at Kucharik? They do traditional chamois liners. Haven't purchased from them myself, but I have my eye on their traditional wool shorts. http://www.kucharikclothing.com/index.php Nick W. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: [650B] ISO: lycra shorts without the diaper pad...
I've picked up a few pairs of Ibex Duo shorts on Ebay and used a thread puller from the sewing chest to remove the pads. I really like them with RBW wool boxers or wicking fitness base layers (no center bottom seam) from BCG or UnderArmor. Joneswares cycling shorts come without a chamois unless you specify adding one, but they seem to be taking a Rambouillet like nap at present.

The latest avenue I've been on has been the tri shorts direction. Since they are intended for running and swimming as well as cycling the padding is smaller, thinner and more breathable. Still not quite the old school favorite but the closest I've found so far.

Boure Bicycle Clothing - it's been quite a few years since I last purchased shorts from them but the padding is very thin, exactly what you're describing. I might have the least expensive of their shorts offerings. They are also terrific on customer service and very responsive on the phone. www.boure.com 1-888-889-9242JoanOn 06/24/12, Bruce Herbitterbruce.herbit...@gmail.com wrote:I've picked up a few pairs of Ibex Duo shorts on Ebay and used a thread puller from the sewing chest to remove the pads.
