Just took delivery of two pairs of Giordana Tenax Bib shorts. These are the top rated shorts behind the Assos top of the line bibs in the recent Bicycling magazine review of the best cycling accessories. I will be taking these things out for a spin today. The first thing I noticed about the Giordana Tenax shorts were the pad. It is quite thick and light. Not thick that would get in the way, but amazingly thick and cushioned for the weight and comfort that these shorts provide. I will be doing a write up on the top of the line shorts from Giordana, Castelli, Santini and Pearl Izumi (and Assos if someone sends me a pair) in the next week or two. I also have some new Santini CSX bibs that I have yet to ride. I forgot I had them downstairs.

I’m currently on my 3rd pair of the 2005 tenax bib shorts – Giordana. Every pair I had wore thin in the lower back just above the pad. The company replaced them everytime, but with the same product. The material is really thin to start with so under normal wear they become thin and you can actually see through it. Have you experienced this or heard any comments on it?

I can see this happening on mine as well. Good to know that you were able to get them replaced.
