    Arrow quality cycling shorts/knicks

    Hi,
    I am wanting to find reasonable ladies cycling shorts/knicks. I don't want to pay a mint e.g $70+ dollars which seems to the cheapest going rate I've found. I have found 1 online seller cellbikes.com.au. Has anyone had experience with them or can recommend a retailer in Geelong or if necessary Melbourne.

    Hi aljenit. I've bought a few things from cellbikes with no problems at all. I don't know what their knicks are like though. I also buy quite a bit of cycling gear from OS with no problem, and sometimes VERY good prices compared to local retailers... some of the ones I use are www.wiggle.co.uk, www.probikekit.com and www.ribble.co.uk. It may not be worth it to purchase just one pair of shorts from OS, depending on the freight charges.

    Good luck.

    Thanks for replies, will look into those sites. I have had good reports for the cycle shorts occasionally on offer at ALDI, unfortunately they had them last week before I was looking.

    My wife and I have had the Aldi ones for about 3 years and they are excellent and, from memory, well priced.

    If you don't need the leather seat patch, I noticed that K Mart have started stocking nylon/lycra bike & exercise shorts again.

    They are a bit short on cheap track pants for senile mothers in nursing homes though.......
