First ride 36 miles of Essex lanes .
Put these on for the first time this morning. When they arrived I tried these on and thought they were too small as the bib straps were really tight . I'm 6,1 and 73 kgs . Size medium. So thought I'd give them a go on my regular route to start with .
Needn't have worried as they are great . With a base layer underneath the straps gave no problems. The pad is great as good as my favourite Rapha 3/4s which is what I measure every thing against . Can't imagine any thing much better.

Good service
Fast delivery, comfortable and true to size.
Had an issue with a loose thread On leg gripper, but Rapha were quick to respond and resolved issue to my satisfaction.

Here's the rub
I own several pairs of great Rapha shorts, but found these far less comfortable than the others, as there was far more rubbing in places that don't like rubbing.

Great shorts...ride great.
Overall a great fitting and great riding pair of shorts. True to size really made them feel great the first time I put them on. My only dislike, minor, is I'm not a big fan of long shorts. Even though these are the "regular" meaning shortened leg they still nearly come down to m knee. I was thinking/hoping they would come down just past mid thigh. That is a personal preference though and not an issue w/ quality. I just feel they are a little long for a "regular" length short.

comfortable
Comfortable padding for long-distance riding and I like the longer leg cuff.
For an XL, I found the shoulder straps slightly short,but not uncomfortable.

Not cheap, but beautifully conceived
Great cut, sizing consistent with previous versions of this bib short, and beautifully constructed in Portugal. I’ll probably buy a back up pair

Good for not so long rides
They look good, are well made and fine for rides less than 75 miles. But for longer rides, which I prefer, they become very uncomfortable.

Excellent fit
Excellent fit, great new grippers, certainly feel lighter than the original pro bib shorts. Love the black branding, very subtle!

Pro quality
Great quality and fit. Provides good comfort, and the extra leg length gives you the pro look as well as extra sun protection.

Great chamois. I rode Assos for years but feel like the fit and quality I felt they once exemplified has been surpassed.

Great bibs
I have the original Pro Team bib, which I love. The chamois is better in the updated bibs and provides all day comfort.

Good but not worth the price
I bought these after my first part ripped and Rapha could not fix them and gave me partial credit towards a new pair. I took a chance and bought the same bibs, size and style as before. The new ones appear to be of high quality and fit well. The chamois is OK and not great, compared to other kit I have these don't fit my anatomy as well as other brands both more and less expensive. So in the end they will be worn but not on long rides as they are not the right kit for me.

Long on Quality.
The quality of these bibs is obvious in all of the seam work, the broad non binging anti slip leg cuff, and the light but tightly woven fabric.
I have a 36" inseam and never considered a Long bib, nor did anyone make one. Once I had these bibs on, I realized that I have always worn bibs that were too short in the legs for me. Thank you Rapha.
I had heard of Rapha quality before purchasing these. Now I know the quality, and I know that Rapha makes premium products.

Classy bib shorts.
Great fit with a quality feel. My go to shorts for long days in the saddle makes the miles tick by with ease.

Pro bib shorts
Aesthetically well designed & offers good support. However the stitching frays at the straps. Overpriced.

Best Bib Shorts II
Very happy with my choice. The best or nothing. Rapha is the best maker for cycling cloth. No doubts.

Great chamois and lightweight
I bought these bib shorts a few weeks ago and have now done a few longer rides with them. Most importantly the chamois is excellent. I’ve had the Rapha Classic bid shorts previously and I prefer the Chamois and the tighter fit of the Pro Bib shorts. The Pro’s are also lighter weight. The only aspect I was a little disappointed with is the quality of the material...only time will tell if it lasts. I was also surprised at this price point that they are not Italian made.

I have five pairs of these. They last and they are comfortable. The chamois cannot be beat.

Great Kit, perfect fit. My only comment, I'd prefer a darker Navy Blue. But that's just me.

Great Fit & Comfort
I have been riding for just over a year and these are the best bib shorts I have worn. They are more comfortable than any others I have tried. I am 6'3" 220 pounds a the XL fit great on me. I would highly recommend you spend a little more money and get these because they will be worth it in the long run. The material is great quality as well. It was hard for me to bike multiple hours before I got these now I get off the saddle after a few hours and feel great still.

Not sure whether these will make it much further
Nicely made and tailored as per Rapha standard. Long fit rode up, but I'm of the beanpole build and so this was not a great surprise. The pad is interesting and the sized pad for a small was one of the reasons for the purchase. The pad is very comfortable to sit on, but causes "issues" when pedaling due to a pair of extended thick "fingers" of pad that extend forward. If these don't soften down after a few washes then the bibs will have been an expensive mistake!

Spend your money elsewhere
Rapha's sizing charts and return policies are both a joke. I ordered these bibs based on the sizing chart listed. After receiving them, I tried them on, and they seemed to fit, but there's no way to truly tell without riding in them. After a few miles on the bike it became obvious that they weren't fit for any rider over 5'8", as the seam in the crotch was so tight it was causing pain and numbness.
After calling customer service to try and return them, I was informed that would not be possible, because they had been worn for one ride.
For a brand that makes supposedly high end clothing that is designed to be worn during physical activity, it doesn't make sense they you're expected to evaluate fit by trying them on around the house.
Overall, this was the first and last time I'll be purchasing anything from Rapha. They can't get their sizing charts right, and don't care to make it up to you on the back end. Poor fit, and poor customer service.
