I got these cycling tights for myself for Christmas and I was amazed how warm and toasty these are.....and they were only 50 weasly bucks! Usually I buy a lot of stuff from sierratradingpost.com and they sell mostly winter/hiking stuff. They sell a few cycling gear stuff and mostly winter stuff like skis, snowshoes, winter clothes, etc. They are really good at the price on the stuff they sell because all the items are a year old, I bought my snowshoes dirt cheap on Thanksgiving Day.Anyway, back to the pants. I was worried that these wouldn't be warm enough and all the other ones I have bought ever since I starting biking were not warm enough, only good for 50 degree temperatures. I had always doubled layer(cycling shorts with leg warmers then tights over them) in the 40 degree weather and it sucked, sometimes my legs couldn't breathe. So I gave it shot on the ones I just bought, I read the reviews and people were saying they use them in 30 to 40 degree temperature sometimes in the teens. Most people complained about the padding and how long they were but after myself used them on a ride last Monday, I loved them. They were warm and comfortable. I am really satisfied with them. That day I rode in them, it was 28 degrees! When I was riding in them, they felt they could go down maybe another 15 degrees and still feel warm.
I looked at other websites like nashbar or cambria and all of their tights were in the $100-$200 range. Too pricey for me....ya, just for a few rides in the winter. Then I found these Canari's for $48 and I thought they were pretty darn good tights at this price range. Now I can ride outside when it's 20 degrees(maybe in the teens, hopefully) without hooking my bike onto the nightmarish, boring, weakling stationary trainer which I really hate, hate, HATE riding. Now, problem solved!
