Looks like most sizes avail and sale good until Monday. I believe Escape is PI's lowest rung bib shorts, but still good name brand quality, and a good spare pair to leave in your car for those that do a lot of riding.


The Pearl Izumi Quest bibshort is the choice of recreational riders and hobbyists around the world thanks to its balance of value, fit, durability and comfort. Featuring SELECT Transfer fabric for outstanding moisture wicking in a 6 panel design, the Escape 1:1 chamois for all day comfort. The short is rounded out with a comfortable mesh upper offering support and stability, and nine inch inseams with silicone grippers at the leg openings.

FEATURES
  • SELECT Transfer fabric sets the benchmark for moisture transfer
  • New blended thickness SELECT Escape 1:1 Chamois for chafe-free comfort
  • 6-panel anatomic design
  • Turned hem with silicon print holds the short comfortably in position
  • Mesh bib upper provides stability and support
  • BioViz reflective elements for low-light visibility
  • 9.5" inseam (M)
  • Sizing: S-2XL

Cheaper at backcountry, and that's just the first Google result without really hunting

When you say "cheaper," it's $44.98 at Back Country. That's 50 cents less... that's only a slightly lower price.... sheesh. Western Bikeworks price matches, as well, so you can price match Back Country's price or any other lower price you find, if you want.

I mean feel free to mention a slightly lower price somewhere else, but don't act like... oh, if I only tried a little harder I'd probably get it for $20 or something.

You say that, but it's kind of true. The other color option is 41.99. Competitive Cyclist, same company, has it for the same price. My usual cash back place for sports stuff has 11% back for competitive cyclist which gets you to 37.37 while the first couple of places I checked have nothing for western bikeworks. If you prefer western because they're local or something that's fine, but it doesn't make it a deal.

What other color option in what sizes? I noticed how you didnt link that find... what, are they blue bibs (that nobody wants) in size Small (that most adults dont fit in)? Dude, there are Assos shirts that are half off, or more (that I could have posted)... but they're either only avail in an off color or only one unpopular size, such as XS, only. If you're posting a deal on clothing, then you need to consider available sizes and whether the color is desirable.

I noticed you've posted 20 deals in 11 yrs as a SD member... yet your first comment on this post is that the deal sucks because you did ten seconds of Googling and found it for a whopping 50 cents less!

If you're such a great deal hunter, then by all means, POST YOUR OWN DEALS! When I posted this deal, I just stumbled upon it when I was looking at stuff at Western Bikeworks. Under $50 for PI bibs, even basic ones, is a good deal... so I decided to share it with the community. I'm not SD Staff, and I don't get paid to post deals, so I'm not going to do a bunch of competitive price research on everything I post. Soooo, again, if you can so easily find such great deals in seconds of searching... if you have such a talent for finding deals, then start posting more than 2 deals a year!

Same link I sent in the previous post. At competitive cyclist /backcountry, 'textured black, ' all sizes. I spelled out the process to get the $37 price if this is a product you want. I wouldn't post a deal for these because these bibs are not very good imo, I prefer the attack bibs or higher. I have a deal alert for the pearl izumi so I got the alert for this post.

Obviously you're not a fan of criticism, so you do you.

Here's the funny thing... I AGREE the textured bibs avail in Large (most popular size) are a great deal! You said it in your response, though --- "criticism." Why do you feel the need to criticize the OP. You realize the only reason you knew to search that particular style of bib short was due to my post. So, just comment "great deal, but looks like Competitive Cyclist has them even cheaper in textured." That's all. No need to post, "wow, searched ten seconds and found a better deal than this without even trying." Condescending much? The point is that this STYLE of bib short appears to be reduced at multiple outlets, and if you're okay with textured, then here's an even better deal.

I've posted a lot of deals, so trust me, I can take criticism. If I couldn't take it, then I'd have stopped posting a long time ago. It's just as a long time member, you should do more to encourage others to post deals as opposed to criticizing them. Imagine how many deals the SD community has missed because other members were afraid to post a deal for fear that the deal wasn't good enough and they'd get trashed in the reply thread...

Btw, again, if you're good at finding deals and have no problem with criticism against your own posts... then start posting more deals of your own! ✌🏻
