  • cheers amey, have to say the merino base layers are probably my favourite bit of rapha kit

  • What is this XXS? Size guide only goes down to XS, so would XS become S fit, or is the XXS for truly stick thin people?

  • Base layers come up big. I wear a small base, but medium jerseys. Both fit perfectly. Soi guess xxs base is for those who take an xs Jersey?

  • Road.CC review of Core Bibs states that different pads are used in classic/core and pro. Lies?

  • Totes liez

  • Y pro team jacket sold out in black? Needed a lighter weight jacket.

  • GT Gloves, are there any alternatives?

  • Lizard skinz make gloves but they have poor build quality. BDW was a fan, but mine fell apart quickly

  • Giro Lx. Mitts and LF. Same pittards leather as Rapha (if it still is?)

  • Yes, and I'm currently fatter than I used to be but still squeezing myself obscenely into medium stuff.

    The insulated gilet is rad as hell, by the way.

  • Jadias! First time in a long time.

  • Man buys expensive London home, can no longer afford middle class baubles - sad story ;)

  • Yup @branwen is right. Have had the giro lx both mitts and lf. Nice and not as pricey.

  • So i get a 25% discount today but note that all the prices have gone up the same amount . What was 35 quid is now 42.50.

    Time to use the 15 % morvelo code instead .

  • I will have your Rapha code off you if you don't want to use it

  • not in euro prices they haven't. can i haz code?

  • also this just in:

  • Got training jersey, don't like it.
    Got brevet windblock jersey, like it but unsure if a keeper.
    That is all

  • have you got the regular brevet/classic jersey? if so, how does the windblock compare against those thickness-wise?

    from pictures it looks thinner, but also realize since it being 87% merino the material difference to the regular brevet jersey might be a factor here as well.

  • Its definitely thinner than a regular brevet, seems kinda weird wearing a half gilet/ half jersey garment.

    Maybe its the future :)

  • Is it a better fit? I find the regular one rather baggy and ill-fitting compared with other Rapha offerings.

  • Mine just arrived and the fit is like a normal jersey - I did not get on with the fit of the regular brevet either for same reason. The material is really lovely.

  • Nazi jokes. Such great taste.

  • that is what I was hoping, I love the styling of the Brevet collection but the regular short sleeve just doesn't fit me.

  • Only 2 minutes 2 seconds out. Dam that fast first hour of racing.
    Anyone get closer?
