At first, I disfavored bib shorts, but now I agree, they're best.
All the jerseys I now acquire are bib shorts for race teams. Some are from Louie Garneaux, others from Voler and a few other brands. Get great bike shorts. One hint, don't get white shorts, go dark.

Bibs vs. std shorts
Why are bibs 'better' or even preferred? They look incredibly uncomfortable...however, I've never even so much as tried one on, but they don't look comfortable.

My wife couldnt' believe it as well.
Why? They just are. One, they don't have waste bands. Something about that makes them more comfortable. The one disadvantage, doing nature's business is not as tidy. You will just pull of the leg, but dumping requires a major ordeal.

Bibs

My cycling goal right now is to wear a large cycling jersey, and have it 'flap' in the wind as ride. As far as your wife and/or female riders with bibs...that would seem to be to be even MORE uncofortable as it would seem to really annoy on a females upper body. I don't blame her for that.

I don't know why women seem to dislike bibs.
