Ok, I’m not the typical type to post on this sub, but I am trying to improve my comfort to get in some longer rides. Been riding about 3 times a week for almost six months now. I’ve tried a few different saddles and gotten a bike fit from a reputable fitter in my area (which included testing several different saddles during it)… I also have a pair of the basic Black Bibs, and a pair of Pearl Izumi Attacks. The Pearls are definitely the better if the two, but I still can’t make it past about 45 minutes before my butt starts to hurt. At least getting off the bike for a couple minutes helps. I really want to be able to handle some 40+ mile group rides. I’ve seen a lot of people rave about Assos bibs, and I’ve found some in my size on eBay. They are an older model that are New with tags. I can’t help but wonder if they are fake or something, because the seller has a bunch of them NWT, all in 3xl, but none in boxes, and they are all priced at $90. They do have 100% feedback rating. Can someone with a trained eye for these tell me if it’s too good to be true? Has anyone ever seen fakes of these?
TLDR Found some Assos for good price on eBay, but wondering if they might be fake.
