Pearl IzumiMen's Escape Quest Bib Shorts(Return to Product Page)

I bought one pair I liked it enough to order another

Very comfortable they are a bit shorter

On the leg than some other shorts but I wear knee warmers or leg warmers on early morning rides in San Francisco

Cheers

Noticed these at a good price just after buying another brand which I had exchanged for a better size fit. The Pearl bibs stay in place better, have a better quad comfort, and the padding is comfortable for fairly long, intense indoor training sessions in front of a fan to manage heavy sweating. Typical sessions are equal parts seated and standing, primarily as crosstraining for distance running or a warmup for running, seven days a week.

I have always had great luck with my pearl Izumi bibs. I am a bigger guy at 260 and most other brands just don't fit like these do. Don't spend $200 or more for others that are not as good. Only one slight complaint is the pad is a bit stiff and bulky. However after a handful of uses it will mold and take shape and is perfect. Just put that in so when you get them and notice that you understand it will work in.

These bibs have a great fit and a nice cushion to them. Have ridden with them a few times and I'm very happy.

I bought these on sale. They were priced not much more than basic black bibs. I've used Pearl Izumi products for many years and jumped at the opportunity. While they're not quite as plush as some of the "pro" level bibs I have, they're certainly acceptable and much better than the worn out bibs that I was using for shorter days in the saddle

I use the PI men's Escape bib shorts daily [doubles]. I really like them. They wear well for the kind of use I put them under. Like any athletic equipment they will wear out, so I change them out every 3-4 months, so I don't get any butt issues. They work for me.

Picked these up during a Gold Express Deal, so the price was right. Prior to these, I had only used Pearl Izumi's "Pro" level bib shorts, which were great. These are obviously a step-down, as far as quality and materials go but still function just fine. The chamois is a little lack luster, but for a daily bib for training rides, they've worked great. I would grab a nicer set if looking to ride anything longer than an hour or so.

Great bibs, good value, good chamois. I've tried many others, went really expensive, went really cheap. These seem to be my most used for just comfort level. I've used them on 60-100 mile rides, and down to 20 minute crit races. Just good overall bibs. Not just for the money recommended do I recommend, but all the time recommend.

Got these for short rides 15-25 mile rides. Thought purchasing these would help persevere my Italian maker ones for longer days in the saddle. All I can say after 5 miles I noticed I had a terrible bib short on and kept focusing on them instead of the ride since I had to keep standing and adjusting myself on the saddle. Should of just paid a little more and got a better bib short. Lesson learned

I bought this product because of my satisfaction with other Pearl

Izumi apparel items in the past. These bibs live up to PI�s reputation for quality at an affordable price. The material is superior, the fit comfy, and the chamois thick and absorbent. At its under $100 price point, it is an excellent Value for the money.

I�m a 64 year old female not very serious bike rider. The men�s small fit fine and the bibs keep the waist from rolling. I may get the long ones when it get cooler. The padding is very nice since I either broke or bruised by tailbone in May and still experience some pain. In fact, I won�t ride without these bibs for that extra cushion.

Comfortable and seem durable. The chamois isn�t the highest quality but it�s thickness makes up for adequate run relief. With saddle cream the shorts serve well on daily 30-50 mile rides The leg length cut is long, European style

Fits well and provides excellent support.

Pad looks like it was designed 40 years ago, (one piece pad, with articulation underneath). Would recommend wearing only on shorter rides

These bibs are pretty good for the money spent. You'll get a year and change out of them, unless you wear them every day.

I know Pearl Izumi well. Have worn their jerseys for years. This Quest Bib Short is problematic in two ways. The medium size is way off - too small. I wear medium in multiple brands of bibs. Bib straps cut into my shoulders. The chamois is weird, coming up too high in the front. I definitely advise against purchasing this product.

Good bibs for when it's really hot. The pad is not too thick and comfortable. Length on the legs is just right a little over the knee.

Well made and comfortable. The pad is very basic, but feels fine. I use the shorts for both road and mt. biking.

Returned as the chamois felt cheap and thin, and overall quality was no up to standard for the price.

Use is for 30-40 mile bike rides. But the thickness of the padding becomes uncomfortable quickly. Everything else about these bibs is fine.
