Altering bib shorts
Specifically, altering Sportful NoRain bibs, they fit fine around the waist and legs but are ridiculously short in the body. Can't return them as I lost the receipt >.> but I do have an old pair of bibs that I could cannibalise to increase the length of the straps. Anyone have any experience of doing this? Anyone in south Wales know any good tailors?

Sell them on as New/No Tags...being a 'short arse' I never have that problem...tends to be the reverse sometimes, with the straps being too long...
OK, that's fair enough
Have you got any email confirmation with an order number as proof of purchase?
That or just try and sell them and limit your losses.
Can't actually get them on enough to get on the bike
I would say it is certainly doable but will not look anything like as neat as the original.
Have you actually ridden in them as most bibs are too short standing up, however when riding they fit perfectly....
