Anyone wear high socks over trousers to protect them from chain dirt and mishaps?

no, i wear appropriate height socks as defined by uci, then cuff my rapha® technical trousers® to fall just above my front derailleur, like a civilized person.

I know you're memeing, but self-hating cyclists who buy and wear pickme "not a cyclist" clothing aimed at appeasing the "I don't want to be perceived as actually enjoying bikes" normies by throwing lycra people under the bus are cancer and should be ostracized and hazed at every opportunity. Physically throwing them under an actual bus is fine too and completely morally justified.

people definitely perceive me as enjoying bikes, and i don't need a gimpsuit to ride. you're a lycrafag and should be thrown directly under the bus.

Yeah, sometimes if I'm wearing track pants. Other pants I just pinchroll. Looks much less retarded.
Lately I've been using these reflective armbands that are made for joggers, except I put them above my ankles to keep the pants tight. They work really good + reflective

No, because I'm not a homosexual. Just roll your pants up or get a chain-guard. Jesus Christ, this board is turning retarded.

I've come back from long rides with horrible edema the next day calves swollen up like a motherfucker.

I wonder if going full Yates would prevent that if I just bought a pair of compression socks.

shut the fuck up noncyclist. post your bike. OP >>1800039 is talking about how to bike to work without tearing your pants.

>>1800268
These work great. these are just the arm version of the exact same leg thing.

>>1800039
OP, SKS, the fender people make chain covers they are called the SKS chainboard. Unfortunately they only fit up to a 48t

If you don't work in Lycra, you're not a real cyclist.

Like >>1800268 I use ankle straps, I picked some up from Jandd when I ordered a rack bag from them. There are cheaper options out there, these were $6-7 when I picked them up but have been in use for years and don't show any signs of wear. Way faster than rolling up your pant legs and in my opinion, better. Would rolling your socks over your pants stretch them out after some time? I'm not sure how much tall socks like that cost.

Some UCI rules make sense but some are really retarded. The one on socks in particular. It offers no safety benefit or anything.
