I found these to be a full size too small. As a 5’10, 165lbs aerobically fit guy, I chose size Medium, as I always do, but they fit like size small. Not only that, but I found the waistline to be cut so low that it almost produces “plumbers butt” when you lean forward while riding. Sorry, Pactimo, but I consider this low-cut backside about as silly as you can get—unless showing flesh is the goal while wearing these. I do appreciate the style, fit and function of other Pactimo clothing I own, though.

I use these shorts for riding indoors on my trainer but I have cycling buddies who wear shorts (instead of bibs) all the time. I find the fit to be perfect while the waistband isn't too tight. Plenty comfortable for those short or medium distance rides on a trainer. For long rides, I find a bib to be better (for me) but I have no complaints about these!

Great fit, gripper bands kept the shorts in place the whole ride

Love the shorts, particularly the chamois. However, would strongly prefer it if the shorts did not ride low in the back. I’ve ridden several other brands and never had the thought that the back of my jersey would not at least reach to the top of my shorts. Maybe it’s just my body shape, but this is not an issue with the other brands.

I’ve purchased a few pair of shorts, pants, bibs from Pactimo. All excellent quality and comfortable. I’m a medium in every other brand I’ve tried, but a large in all the Pactimo bottoms. (Jerseys are same size - large - as other brands for me.) I’d say these shorts are great for ~50-60 mile rides; for longer you might want a different chamois.

I wore these shorts for the first time at the 6hrs of Santos race. In my racing career, I have always suffered some form of discomfort with the shorts I was wearing. During this particular race, I was astonished that I had no discomfort at all. Cleaning out my closet and replacing all my apparel with Pactimo shorts.

The shorts will be great for shorter rides. I commute daily around 10 miles, and while bike shorts make for a more comfortable ride, bibs are less practical. The Accent Vector shorts outstanding quality so far with a comfortable chamois. The only downside is that the rear waist is a bit lower than my other shorts (3 other brands). With a cycling jersey, everything remained covered, but it still felt a bit breezy.
