Comments about Pearl Izumi Quest Bike Shorts - Men's:
Love
these shorts. They are excellent. Extremely comfortable in general,
but especially during a ride. They're smooth and have a nice feel about
them, but are also well built. Comfortable, heavy fabric. Great
stitching.
Since buying these I bought another brand of shorts that was on sale (Canari). Didn't fit right and the fabric wasn't as good. Returned 'em and ordered another pair of these. Just love 'em!

I
just got a Trek 1.1 bike to ride 18 miles round trip to work to save on
gas and get in shape. The seat on my bike was uncomfortable even with
added gel pad. Order these shorts and they feel really good. I did 11
miles yesterday and I was fine and could have kept going. I have been
riding for about a week doing between 4-7 miles on my rides using these
shorts. If they hold up well after a month or two I will be buying
another pair.
Service and delivery comments:
My delivery arrived faster than I expected. I think I ordered on a sunday and it arrived wednesday.

Due
to the current weather, these are mostly worn while on the indoor
trainer. I have had them for ~6 weeks with no issues. The short material
has a matte surface so they stay in place throughout the ride without
having to stop and adjust. The chamois is excellent. I am 6' and 235 and
wear a large. The xl looked like I was wearing a diaper.

I
have shorts that cost more than twice as much that I do not like nearly
as much. I have had one pair for more than a year of frequent use.
They show no signs of wear, and the chamois is as comfortable as when
they were new. I logged on to REI today to make sure that they still
have them, as I intend to pick up two more pairs today.

I
have been using these shorts for about 4 months now and have 2 pair so
they get washed alot. They are still holding up well like new. I air dry
them over a vent.
The longest ride I have done so far is probably 22 miles and frequently do 8-12 at a given time.
They are very comfortable. As a new cyclists, I haven't owned any other pair yet but I dont know how another pair could be much better.

For
your neighborhood jaunts, these shorts will serve their purpose. If
you're doing any distance riding, be sure that heavily padded shorts
will work for you. It didn't for me. Last 100-mile ride, I was hating
life by mile 20. I returned them (thank you, REI!) and bought some with
much less padding, which have worked out great. I've got a boney rear
end (155lbs, 5'11") and just could not get along with these shorts. It
will work for some, as we're all different, so just make sure it will
work for you. Good way is to look at your current shorts and see how
thick it is and compare.
