Daniel- I have a pair of Ibex bike shorts that I bought used, and have used heavily myself for the past 18 months. The elastic waist still has the same tension (just right, actually) as the day I received them. I ordered the El Fito full tights and the 3/4 tights. Thanks for the heads-up,

Got my order yesterday 3/4 medium fits me perfectly. 5'8" 155 31-32" waist, Surprised no drawstring. Usually a bib fan. How does the elastic waist band hold up over time, does it start drooping after a couple of years? On Friday, May 20, 2016 at 11:16:06 AM UTC-7, danmc wrote: > > Just

If someone wants to take the LARGE full length off my hands, $65 shipped - save yourself the shipping cost. They're a bit loose on me, I should have gone with the Medium.. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe

Just ordered the 3/4 El Fito. I own an older pair that have seen many mIles and held up well. Highly recommended for colder climates. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails

Just ordered two pairs, already have two pairs. Good for 9 mile commute as well as600k. Machine wash with wool soap, low water temp, air dry and no change in fit. Perfect for foggy Bay Area weather! I'm 5'8" weight 135 lbs female with longish legs slim hips, ladies medium works for me. --

Thanks for the heads up on this. I had looked both the long and the 3/4 tights a number of times but just never went through with ordering them. I got 2 pairs of each type so I should be set! On Friday, May 20, 2016 at 2:16:06 PM UTC-4, danmc wrote: > > Just noticed that Ibex dropped the

I am 5' 10" 153 with a 30" waist and can do either a small or medium. Actually prefer the small. Not a fan of the current MUSA cut - too loose for me. > On May 21, 2016, at 4:40 PM, Daniel D. wrote: > > I ordered a medium 5'8" 155. You guys kinda have me worried But you

I wash with ecover and dry flat. So far they haven't shrunk from what I can tell. I like the ease of movement with the larger sizes. It is funny because, as small a person as I am I don't see how anyone fits into a small or medium size bike short. Even when I first started cycling and bought

FYI, this stuff should not shrink unless you really try to. I have lots of Ibex and it's all pre-shrunk. I believe that the dryer lowers the life-span of the garments, but does not shrink them. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch"

Do not walk, but run to your computer and get them while you can. I love their tights and 3/4 tights. So comfortable and soft and *unrestricted* movement. Did all my distance riding in them during the last year. Pads are fantastic, too. But I guess that is personal. I got them on sale, too,

Yes. The pad is not too bad. Looks like the 3/4 "knickers" are still available in all sizes. Those are my personal favs. At $50 they are a great deal with or without pad. Not an ibex employee. Just love wool. Dan > On May 20, 2016, at 3:12 PM, Belopsky wrote:
