Review: RCUK Top 100 Pactimo Summit Stratos Bibs

May 09, 2018

"Breathability is excellent."

by George Scott / RCUK

"Pactimo's Summit Stratos bib shorts were something of a revelation when we reviewed them last summer.'We'd happily pull these shorts from the kit drawer for just about any ride. They are supremely comfortable,' was our verdict.

It's all about comfort as far as these shorts are concerned. In fact, PACTIMO describe the Summit Stratos shorts as 'the 12-hour bibs,' because they are designed with ultra-endurance events like the Cape Epic and Dirty Kanza in mind.

The comfort comes through the use of a super-soft, lightweight fabric, which moulds to the legs like a second skin."

"I finished 9,000 miles having to ride at night, in blizzard conditions and in some insane winter winds, but I succeeded and set the next goal to ride the trip of a lifetime; a 7 day bike adventure in Italy with my brother. Throughout it all I noticed I could not sustain the power I was used to easily producing, and began to get dropped on some group rides that I easily was able to handle before."

Dreaming of longer, warmer days and the race season yet? Me too. And we haven't even reached the winter solstice! Despite the desire for warmer weather, winter can provide a great opportunity to do some reflection of what went well in 2017 and what you'd like to improve upon.
