Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

FKW4life

The only three bits of clothing not Rapha for me:

• Shoes = Sidi Tiger
  
• Glasses = ZeroRH+ Corsa
  
• Winter gloves = Assos Fugu
  

Helmet?

What did you call me?!

I meant my glasses off bike :P

Y u no Rapha on biek?

Full buyer fail

I just use the classic prescription glasses everywhere now .. on & off bike

All this talk makes me want to buy some Rapha.

Anyone can advise how true to size the pro team lightweight jersey is? the size guide suggests I'm in the middle of small and medium. Is it tight tight tight?

I have one of those, and they run true.

I'm on the exact cusp of medium and large, and the large on me is very comfortable. I suspect that if I had gone optimistic and got the medium it would've been quite snug.

If you're also right on the cusp, go the size up for comfort.

Ta, I'm less for comfort and more for "well fitted" so sounds like I should get off my ass and go to the shop to try them.

Indistinguishable to the Miltag stuff in my opinion - i.e. for me I can fit into small in both but because of my ribs I tend to wear medium. If you're small in the skinsuit you should be fine in small PT kit.

Medium fits me with no flappyness - same as Velocio - its pretty accommodating to being a (half) size up, but based on you being happy with a small skinsuit I would definitely go with small PT jerseys

Go small. It might feel weird off the bike, but so right when riding.

Cheers folks, small it is.

I'd say PT fit is comparable to the LFGSS skinsuit fit but it also depends on the jersey. The PT aero jersey is even tighter than normal PT as you might expect. I wear XS and think the PT aero jersey is verging on too tight!

If I don't carefully peel myself out of it, I may rip it.

Perfect fit.

I have become middle aged.

Not sure when it happened, but it's happened.

ftfy

Rapha in Belgium.

Has the Thank You code expired? Thought it was the end of June expiry.

TIA

I guess their stuff really is nice after all.

I have it on good authority that it's also a bit pricey.

found @amey in oversized hipster glasses

New avatar time.

What are the chances that Rapha will repair the now rather see-through rear panel in my Pro Team Bibs? No rip, it's just very thin and see-through and is displaying butt crack. I've had the shorts 5 years so will Rapha just say "buy new shorts please"?

The will install a new rear panel - especially if you still have receipt.

No they won't.

Gave in and bought the bikepacking stuff as it's back in stock. Actually worked out cheaper than the standard Apidura versions with the discount code

So the Pro Team training jersey has been discontinued
