"Good quality Lycra with a very comfortable seat pad. I am over 100kgs and the shorts are proving up to the task in the comfort stakes. Be careful with sizing - a little on the small size. Chart indicated L but I should have ordered XL."
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, High Quality

"I am over 100 kgs and consequently hard on road bike tyres. Punctures have been a persitent problem. I have found instant success with the Continental Ultra Gator Duraskin Road Tyre. It gives a cushioned ride compared to other tyres I have been using and is proving to be very puncture resistant. I suspect some people might have issues with it if seeking a high performance race tyre but for me doing 50km to 100km training rides and the occassional social race, it is fit for purpose and great value."
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, Versatile
Cons: Limited Color Choices

Does this come with a bracket to fis to the bike? If not can you buy one and can you get one that will use bottle carrier holes?
No brackets or instructions for that matter but easy to figure out.

167cm (5'7"); 38-39" Chest (96-99cm) and 73-75 kg - Correct size is?
I would like to know correct size (not in the position to try them prior or the additional costs for return). Are these a comfort, slim or relax fit and will these accommodate small changes in weight and chest growth.
Slim fit defiantly. Chest measure irrelevant unless you pull your shorts up around your arm pits. Go by the waist size and err to the larger size if you're at the margin.

So can I get a definite answer on whether this is wired or folding?
Reading conflicting anwers - is this tyre wired or folding?
Definately folding
