Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

the one the callback thing was about? Would not surprise me, if they will release them together with the shadow jersey, as this 2 products together make absolutely sense.
Incl a bundle with pt soft shell arm /knee warmers + shadow jersey

That's how the SS Sportful neoshell extreme comes. With No Rain arm warmers included.

Might not have the rapha fit and styling. But it comes in colours other than black.

@MicroDosed™ and @604cefiro - no.
@prevailrob - yes.

Rapha pro team bib shorts sizing advice -

5'9'', 32'' waist, 76kg.

Medium or large?

I'd say Medium

Medium fo reals

Get a large fatso

Surprised at the negative comments regarding the Hardshell. For sure it's too much for racing but for long base miles in cold & wet weather I find it without equal. Last years foul weather festive 500 was dusted off with panache in a winter jersey + hardshell.
The hardshell is snug but very breathable so the key is not to have too many layers on underneath. For the long base miles it really is the the King of jackets :)

Thank you, the originals were very nice, just didn't offer any wind or rain protection. And not too pricey.

After I bought my Gabba I dont think I have much use for my rapha softshell besides extremely cold days or low intensity commuting in bad weather. I think a hardshell would fit that purpouse better

Definitely medium. I am 6'3", 32", 75kg and wear medium.

They don't sell individual gloves.

Bugger.

Buy a pair, throw away the one you don't need and you'll have a pair again.

Simples.

Could you fit both hands in one glove?

You should put stuff like this up in the changing rooms in the Raphé... Or just stand there and whisper it into customers ears as they rifle through the merino.

Ha!

Can we bring rep back?

yes please

Does anyone know whether there will be more Race Capes in non data-print colours? Like black? Or alternatively, how the rain jacket compares to the race cape, and whether that grey is dark enough to take a winter of abuse without looking as awful as my chartreuse race cape did unless I hand scrubbed it for an hour once a week?

long sleeve training jersey vs. long sleeve jersey.
LSJ more merino, thicker and warmer?
Still some winter jersey to come?
Liked my old LSJ, but the blue training is very nice...

Get some mudguards?
My chartreuse RC is fine still.

Pretty sure the rain jacket is a heavier fabric than the RC and also the cut is more 'club' than 'race'.

I have to say, this outfit makes me feel a bit queasy just looking at it...

PT Winter Hat re-introduced. No sign of standard winter hat yet

the fuck is that?

dat seam

have threatened the other half that will be her birthday present if she misbehaves
