Overview:
The Ultimate Black Bibs Tall feature the same chamois that we use in our ultimate and ultimate adventure bibs with an additional 2 inches of inseam and shoulder strap length.
For reference, the model in the photos is 6'8"
The pattern is the same as our Pro+ Bibs that have been used by the UCI Cyclus Sports and Lupus Racing Team. They have been worn on national and world championship rides. When you resting ground is the Pisgah Stage Race, Tour of Quinghi Lake, and an Everesting world record you know that it's ok.
Now the Technical Stuff:
- Longer Inseam and longer strap length
- Upgraded silicone-infused leg opening
- Dyed black high compression fabric
- Ultimate Pad (color varies)
- White or black mesh bib straps
INSEAM IN CM:
XS-29.5
S-30
M-30.5
L-31
XL-31.5
2XL-32
3XL-32.5
The only shorts with true extra long inseam in small sizes for us skinny but taller riders. Thank you!!!!
Ordered size medium. Fit is nice thru the legs, plenty of length. Wish there was more length in the shoulder straps though. Nothing an easy stitch at the tailor can’t fix and still so much better than the rapha or LG bibs I’ve had. My 2nd pair from black bibs will order again
The Black Bibs are the Best !
You can pay more but you’re not going to get better…..what you save on Bibs you can spend on Chains and Tires
I’m 6’4” , 180 lbs. the large fits nicely normally I have to pay a tailor to extend the suspenders 4” and wear knee warmers to make it look like I’m not wearing hot pants. With the TALLS I could wear them immediately. I have a 36” inseam and the TALLS are a touch too long for me. They stop just above my knees. If they were custom, I’d have them 2” shorter. Materials and workmanship are excellent. I wish they said Black Bibs inside on the label. By the time I need a new pair it’s hard to remember the brand, model, size.
This fall I have been testing the "top end" models from Pearl Izumi and Craft and none have the comfort as the Ultimate Chamois on The Black Bibs, esp. while in the aero or time trial position. The trend with the other brands seems to be a new short pad design, making them less comfortable for TT use. I used these bibs earlier this month on a 24-hour race -- usually for such events I have to re-apply chamois lube part way through...but not with these. Perfect...please don't change the chamois pad.
