I think the only time my bibs get caught on anything is when im standing in a climb, or accelerating standing, and sit down too quickly and too low, and the front tip of the saddle pokes and tugs at the fabric under my ass.

I dont think u need to worry about the fabric tearing...

But usually, the more expensive bib will have the better fabric... it'll feel nicer against your skin, and maybe transfer moisture better.

Ie// straight lycra fabric has great compression, but leaves me feeling pretty damp, wet, and disgusting when im sweating like a pig. More advanced fabrics w/ different textures, fabric mixes will help transfer moisture outwards and allow the air to dry it etc.
