CONT

La majorité des cyclistes diront que les cuissards avec bretelles sont de loin le meilleur choix pour les moyennes et longues distances tandis que les cuissards sans bretelles sont à réserver pour les petites sorties et le loisir. [...] Le cuissard à bretelles offre [...] un meilleur maintien et une meilleure aération [que le cuissard sans bretelles] à condition que vous trouviez un cuissard avec des bretelles bien ajustées.
