• Got the jersey too now, so I can do a full review:

    (all items from April International on aliexpress - no affiliations)

    Bibs seem really decent. The fit is really nice. The chamois was actually painful for the first mile or so but softened up pretty nicely, pretty fast and turned out to be pretty comfy overall. Compared to the knock off Castelli bibs I got, they are a bit of an upgrade, but at a significantly higher price. I would probably just buy the Castelli bibs to be honest.

    Jersey. Really well made, decent material choices including nice thin panels under the arm to let the heat escape. The zip was total crap, mind and the sizing was all wrong. I got a Medium and it could easily suit someone who is XL. It is a knock-off version of the Supercross jersey from last year, and unfortunately - you can tell. Overall, would buy the good Castelli again that I listed above somewhere - better price and better quality overall.

    Further, all the stuff took ages to come - almost two months in total. In future I will probably steer away from chinese knock off clothing.

    just my 2p.

    Update. My fake rapha bibs are the best bibs I've ridden (limited experience). The jersey is utter shit.
