I’m 5’7 so I got mediums in both jersey and bibs. I think the fit is good except where the end of the sleeve meets my elbow. I’m a little bit beefy so it kind of squeezes. I hate jerseys that are too big and I doubt sizing up would solve that problem. What are my options? Are the bibs gonna bother me on long rides?

I’d say look at what the jersey looks like on the bike. Maybe pull up the sleeves a bit. Idk. You could try a large instead but only portion it looks a little weird is near the elbow.
Looks great. I’m also 5’7 with a stocky build too, so I usually wear a medium but it’s crazy tight on my arms. Just go hard in the spring and lose 5 pounds, and it’ll fit even better. If you size up you’ll hate the way it bunches at the stomach when bent over and you’ll wish you kept the medium. I’ve made that switch like 3 times lol
Fit looks great to me. The elbow part will look fine with arms extended on the bike. I have a few tight jerseys that do this. Better than the jersey fitting too loose imo.
