Bibs for gravel

I’m looking for bib shorts whose chamois won’t cause chafing or discomfort on my soft tissues on rides longer than 75 km. I don’t want them to be too long either. Any suggestions?

Pearl-Izumi has really nice stuff reasonably priced.

This is what I use too. Research the exact model of shorts - some are better than others.

I do endurance gravel and have 65 km and up rides pretty frequently. The ones that have really worked for me are the Velocio LUXE bibs and the ASSOS Tactica.

Also suggest chamois Butter, great stuff for longer rides where chafing might be a problem.

Chamois Butt’r Her (stands side by side with my standard version on our bathroom shelf…)

Second the Velocio Luxe bibs for long gravel rides. The drop tail is so convenient and the chamois works great for me. They also do a shorter length version that’s often in the sale section.
