      Comments about Canari Tempo Bike Shorts - Men's:

      Bought Canari bike shorts in Portland store in June '07. I had never owned padded biking shorts before, [$] I use them for biking on bike trails here in Ohio, on my exercise bike in the garage during the winter, and just bought a second pair for May when a friend and I will bike the Natchez Trace Parkway. I recently had my bikes serviced and checked out the shorts for sale at the repair shop. The padding was significantly thinner than on the Canari shorts. The Canari fit snuggly, but not too tight. They give excellent support. The padding really helps on long rides, even with a padded seat. I have not found the non-sealed seams to be any problem at all. The Canari are a real bargain at the REI price. Since I just ordered a second pair, I have "put my money where my mouth is."

      • Good Padding

      Cons

      • Elastic not strong enough

      Comments about Canari Tempo Bike Shorts - Men's:

      Good shorts that have excellent padding. The only drawback is that, for me, the elastic feels a little loose. When riding, the shorts tend to slide down my waist. Other than that, they are great shorts. Can't beat the price.

      • Waist:
      • Feels true to size
      • Length:
      • Feels too long

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
