[RBW] Bike shorts/ Liners

I have been on the hunt for bike shorts or liners that had just that small chamois like they had about 12 years ago. The only things I can find now have a huge bad in the bottom that make it a very uncomfortable experience to ride in. I would rather just ride in shorts and underwear than those

I was going to buy a Sugino XD 600 but they are about the same price. I figure the Grand Cru is made in Taiwan but am not sure, the Sugino probably is as well. Any experience or options? I have never dealt with Velo Orange but their reputation seems to be good. Thanks Joel -- You received t

John, I ordered that and the Sugino. The Sugino is MIJ, the Velo is MIT. The Velo triple feels hollow, I am waiting for the Sugino to come to do a side by side. I am leaning heavily to the Sugino as I have had good luck with them in the past. Thanks for your thought, hope all is well. Joel On
