    Wait you have athletic thighs, lucky you! :7 I'm still working on mine! How about having a pair tailored to fit you better? If you were going to spend the $$ for the Sevens, then just get a good pair and have them altered. I'm 5'1", so my choices are narrow for jeans as well, and I have...

    Those who bike (indoor or outdoor) I have questions
