ProCorsaMen's McKenzie Bib Shorts(Return to Product Page)

Very nice shorts except for this tiny seam where the ends of the red tape edging around the shoulder straps overlaps makes an itchy spot right between my shoulder blades. It bothers me enough to not use them. Too bad because otherwise I like them.

I really wanted to like these, but the chamois is just too narrow for me which makes them uncomfortable on long rides.

A year-plus ago, I bought these for a song on a deal through my Portland-area cycling club. I figured if nothing else, they'd be a fine extra set of bibs. Recently I've found myself gravitating to these due to their quality of construction and comfort. They've held up well, where a set of much more expensive Capo's purchased around the same time, have not. Fit is European I'm 5'11, 170lbs and the Large fits me okay - but I'd say I'm on the cusp. Any larger than me, and XL or larger is the way to go. Initially, compression is pretty tight on big legs, but they do break in some.

The best fit ever

It is correct to say every body is different and bib-shorts are very personal item to purchase. These shorts are very good but I think for the greatest number of riders the legs are too shorts, the chamois is too small and uncomfortable. For riders who prefer race chamois go for it. At 5'9 170 lbs., large fits good. I ride approximately 500 miles a month.

I'm disappointed. I thought I would really enjoy these bibs based on most of the reviews. Yes, they are constructed really well from pretty good materials. The shortcomings are that the legs are too short (compared to my other bibs) and the chamois is too thin to eliminate the obvious moose knuckle.

I'll probably end up putting these on an auction site and list them as a roomier size small.

bibs not comfortable chamois too small makes long rides miserable. wasted my money on these

The pad is great (at least for me). The compression is good (may even a bit too much), but the material at 90 degree weather does not breathe well at all. And the chest straps are way too wide and come up too high. Combine that with the non-breathing material, I am not sure if I will keep these.

I would not mind paying a bit more for the same cut but with a better material.

It may be good for riding in cooler weather.

I typically wear a meduim, but could not even pull these up. The quality seems good so reording a larger size.

First time trying these and I was very impressed. Price is half of what the top brands costs and fit and finish is very good. Sizing is normal (no need to up size like Castelli). I am 152 pounds and 5'8 and size large fit perfect. They are not as nice as the high end Assos or Giordana but pretty close and well worth the money. Chamois is very good quality and quite comfortable as are the wide straps. The only strange thing is they do not make a matching jersey so no matched kit here.

I've worn these on 2 short rides so far and my initial impression is positive. Size XL fits my 6' 190 lbs frame well, the padding is comfortable, and I like that the hems aren't made of the rubbery stuff that many similar products have. So far, so good.

I wear Castelli small but I needed Pro corsa medium for a practical leg length. The compression on the legs is great for any ride. I'll commute and train with these bibs for sure. The chamois is well padded. I was a bit skeptic since I have had trouble with Capo but I really like Assos and their chamois' are made from the same company that makes the pro corsa. So far, great comfort. Would I recommend these to a friend? No. Because I want to be faster! ,P

I've been riding these for the last month and they've become my go-to bibs. They're comfortable on long rides and the compression style makes for a great race day fit. Often bibs are either comfortable or race quality - these are both. Also, I really like the sleek look - not too flashy but stylish none-the-less.

I have used Sugoi RS shorts for the past five years. Unfortunately they changed the design of the short recently and they no longer are of the same quality they used to be. Therefore, I gave this Pro Corsa bib a try. I have worn my first pair for over 200 miles already and I am extremely pleased with the overall comfort and quality of the item. I am convinced that this bib will become my new go to riding short.

I've only done a few rides in these, but so far I've been very impressed. Most bibs in this price range have a cheap chammy and simple construction. These are as nice as any shorts I've used including ones that cost over twice the price. The fabric is very stretchy and provides excellent compression in the quads and great fit everywhere. The pad isn't super thick and at first I thought it wasn't going to provide enough padding, but even after a couple 80 mile rides, I didn't notice any issues. Fit seems similar to Pearl Izumi or Louis Garneau in size large. I'll definitely be buying more of these.

Ive been using a top Italian brand for many years. The ProCorsa have surpassed the fit and comfort level. The chamois is extremely comfortable on 3 hour rides.

Really nice, well made, and comfortable. M fits well at 5'9160. Also - like all of the ProCorsa gear - the logos are very subtle, which is important to me as well.

I have used several different brands and I think the longevity and value is awesome.

I have ridden in them 4 times and each time i was very satisfied with the comfort of the shorts. No long rides yet but expect them to continue the good fit and ride comfort. Very good bib for the price

Freddie's follow up to my 342016 review, standing by it. I am still wearing the same Bib that I reviewed, must say I am happy I stayed with them.

I think they are the Rogue's because my Chamois looks a little different from that pictured on the McKenzie's. I roll on the Selle SMP saddle and have noticed added comfort with the ProCorsa Chamois. I will purchase again, they are holding up better than some of my higher dollar ones. I'll be sure to buy McKenzie's.
