I am ordering a pair this winter to try out next riding season. I have a couple friends that have them and swear by them. Another feature that they liked is they dry super fast so if your out on a long trip when you pull into the hotel for the night you wash them out in the sink hang them up and they are clean and DRY the next morning ready to go again.

Yes 65$ is crazy expensive but my one buddy swears that he can ride an extra couple hundred KM per day since he started wearing them. I have spent more money on things to try for a longer ride through the years so I figure why not?

$65 is nothin - my cycling shorts are $125 - $160 per pair - I have 5 pair. worth every penny too.

Based on that alone - I think I'm ordering a pair too.

Very True my Castelli's cost a mint but you can ride all day in them compared to the cheaper Netti's, I used to have a pair of AXO nicks which had a genuine Italian chamois and I wore them holes and all (from the many downhill stacks) till the Lycra gave up in them, they were the bees knees, most nicks have synthetic chamois these days

Because they don't bite

For any Aussies who may be thin king of getting some of the Moto Skiveez this is the Australian Distrubutor Moto-Skiveez They sell them for $84.95 AUD

But seriously, all BS aside. On real long trips I have just worn regular cycling shorts & they work great.... much cheaper too

cycling shorts - Google Search

confession time ... me too, I have worn nicks under my jeans to make a long trip on a crappy seat more bearable in the past

OK - The Spanish R+D dept has ordered a set; plus a riding shirt as they were on offer in grey - and I prefer grey to black.
