Features & Benefits:
This product review is from Dan Empfield of slowtwitch.com: "Whether it is the Forza Tri Bib, or the Riviera Tri Bib, this is the most versatile garment for training I own. I run in this, I nordic ski in this, and of course this is the garment when I race a tri. Partly, I guess it's because when you get to a specific age the specter of the gap between the bottom of the tri top and the trishort is not a pleasant one. Unless you have the physique to pull it off. Which I do not."
PRODUCT CODE: RTB3
I bought this because I already own 2 of the De Soto Riviera Flisuits (as well as the T1 2-piece wetsuit). The bibs allow the same easy access to rest breaks while wearing the jersey of choice for the day. Comfortable and I've done many runs off the bike with it. I would most definitely recommend this product. Thanks Emilio!
Since trying on the first pair of fli bibs that I purchased, I have become a convert, and now that I have a second pair I find myself using them every chance I get. They have just the right amount of padding for long rides, but it doesn't get in the way on long runs either. I have even started using them on my long trail runs because I like the feel of the compression and they cause less chafing than running shorts on 20+ mile days in the heat. I will definitely keep coming back to de soto just because of these bibs alone, not to mention their other great gear.
Love these bibs!! They have all the comfort I’ve come to expect from the Riviera shorts and the integrated 7mm pad…enough pad to keep things fresh on the Century+ rides on the Queen K, but far from bulky and prohibitive. Great pockets for storage as well. These are my go-to bibs for the long, hot, training days on the Big Island.
I like riding in these bibs. They are comfortable in the saddle for long rides. I like the larger pocket in the back for a shell and the hole in the crotch when I have to stop for a natural. A couple of items in not a fan of is the strap material. Sometimes it can lead to nipple chaffing which can ruin a ride. The other item is, I wish the legs were a little longer. I am 6’3” and the leg length is around mid thigh on me. I like bibs and tri suits/ shorts a little longer. Thanks, Brent
The product is great, the service is great. What more can you ask?
Great! Very good performance and very confortable.
Absolutely loved these bibs and the padding was perfect
Great fit and quality
I love them. Just bought my second pair. Everything about them is good.
Best piece of tri clothing I own. I got so used to riding with bibs when I put my miles in that this seemed a natural "transition." I love about these what we all love about a good pair of bibs...you put them on and never have to worry about adjusting. No draw string to tie means no draw string that comes loose! DeSoto's fly on the front is one of those innovations that makes you smack your head in wonder. Why haven't we had one of these slits in the front all along? To be honest, this isn't my first pair. I get a pair every year. Thanks for making the Riviera a bit longer, by the way. For what it's worth, my 22 year old daughter says the colors on the bottom make them "pop." I agree. They're perfect, all around!
I was a very happy long time user of the previous version of the tri bibs which I used for several years. When I purchased the new Riviera Fli Bibs I was happy to see they are even better than before. The comfort is excellent, providing good compression with range of motion. The pad is really comfortable. Great for racing but also for your long runs. Side pockets are well hidden. Highly recommended!
Like Brooke Shields and her Calvin Kleins, nothing comes between my butt and my bike except De Soto shorts. This is my third set up Tri bibs and I absolutely love them. 1. Comfortable 2. The right amount of compression 3. The pockets that you never know are there. Five Stars is not enough.
After wearing these for the first time I wished I found them sooner - best tri bottom I’ve used!
Excellent suit, Durable and comfy
i have 3 pairs of these and they function as my go to cycling bib. the pad for me is more than enough for the longest of rides. the construction, durability, fit and attractiveness are all spot on. they are just fantastic bibs. but the brilliant part is fly. i cannot tell you how much easier this makes life during long, cold rides, when you have base layers and multiple layers up top. nature breaks are easy and discreet. i ride in a weekly group of pretty elite triathletes during the summer and i watch in wonder at how undignified the others look fumbling, pulling and hunching during those necessary nature moments we all experience during long rides.... i can't imagine going back to any other kind of bib. i would rate this invention almost as highly as the two piece wetsuit!
elegant product; very high quality of craftsmanship. only bib i wear in training or racing.

I can't seem to get a decent ride in without having these on. I'm a Desoto junkie, afterall. Love the compression feel to these bibs. Especially love not having to pull the front panel down to take a pit stop. Genius integration of that simple slit in the front. Way to go (once again) Emilio!
These are great short. I used them in Ironman Wisconsin this year. In hindsight, for me who is middle of the pack in Ironman, bib shorts are a bit cumbersome for a long event like Ironman. In particular, re-application of anti-chafing products is a bit of a process in the small Ironman porta potties. In terms of comfort, the shorts are great. Fantastic compression and support and, not to mention, looks.
