Gore Bike Wear Power Trail 2in1 Shorts+ - Review

@mecabeat: Sign. Okay, so the baggy shorts have a short zipper at the front. This makes it easier to get in and out of the shorts. Once zipped up, the baggy shorts are nice and snug around the waist. When you need to go for a piss in the woods, you can unzip the fly and stretch the Lycra bib shorts enough to facilitate this. And yes, the zipper is a vital part of the shorts. It's really as simple as that. These are really good shorts, I've been super impressed with them, and wear them all the time. Does that help you out?

Gore Bike Wear Power Trail 2in1 Shorts+ - Review

@Powderface: Unless you're taking a no. 2 in the woods, you can easily stretch the front of the bib shorts down enough to go for a piss. I should know, I've done exactly that loads of times, without any mess and without wrecking the shorts. You can call what you what, but you're wrong

The zipper is just on the baggy shorts - there's enough stretch in the bib shorts that taking a piss doesn't require any funky poses

Mudhugger FR Fender - Review

No one fits a mudguard because it looks good on the bike. It serves a purpose in the winter though, when every ride involves finishing caked in mud, and keeps your vision clear so you can see where you're going. And that's worth a lot. So much so that it's worth putting up with the looks imo

Mudhugger FR Fender - Review

I've used the Marsh Guard/RRP style plastic fenders, and compared to the Mudhugger the protection from mud flicked up by the front wheel is nowhere near as good. The Marsh Guard/RRP 'guards are okay, and better than no mudguard, but they're not on the same league as the Mudhugger
