Bilt Women's Spirit Leather Motorcycle Pants

These are currently on sale at Cyclegear.com for $39.97.

The GF ordered a pair and they are on the way so i can't write a review atm however i'm sharing the sale b/c i'm afraid it will end or stock may run out before she gets hers to review.


$39.97 SKU : web2045607

Ordered a pair for my daughter yesterday. I also ordered a pair of pants for myself. My pants shipped already. Daughters have not. Hopefully they still have them in stock.

Yes they did. Nice pants but too long for my GF. She has a 28" inseam, CG shows the Spirit pants size large being a 29" inseam so i thought for the price it's worth a shot. Turned out that the inseam is actually 31.5 making them way too long.

The quality is nice, stitching seems good. If they fit i'm sure she would have been happy.

If they fit my friend, i'll give them to her. If not, i may use them for something else, idk.

The cost to return them is about he same as what i paid for them.


You'll have to let me know if yours fit your daughter.

I hope the fit her. If not and you have a CG close buy you can return them to the store saving you the shipping. My closest is 2 hours away.

Barnacle Bills in KY can shorten them.
They also have custom paints/suits. The Tiachi I have are great, my inseam is less than 28"

Possibly,

They are way to long. Supposedly were 28" which would have been long on her anyway. Measured the inseam and they are 31 1/2".

Problem is you can't just hem them like a pair of pants. The knee armor is way down in the middle of her shin. They really need to be shortened above and below the knee.

I agree, both above and below.

Funny thing is other than the waist, the pants almost fit me and they are just a bit longer than my cortech pants.

The other problem is that there was only 1 knee armor pad.

I'm guessing these pants have been returned before.

That's stinks! Mine has minor scuffs here and there like they've been returned before or knocked off their hanger repeatedly while at the store.

On a side note...
One of my interns who knows my GF and how short she is, saw the pants and asked me about them. I explained that the pants were on a major sale and i took a chance that they may fit my GF b/c anything that would fit her would cost $400+. She (intern) wittedly replied...


... it would be cheaper to get a taller GF!

I keep telling my daughter I'm going to put her on the "Rack" and make her taller.

She says her new boyfriend makes up for it. He's 6'4" 290lb.
