I have different jersey and jackets from the Rapha Classic collection and I would like to try also the Core collection.

In this respect I would like to have some info on the sizing/fitting of the Core garments.

Is the Core fitting comparable/identical to the Classic one ? Or it is more "race" oriented. Do you have the same size or one up ?

I ordered a core jersey and sent it back. Much prefer my Classic jerseys.

Did you returned it for sizing problems or it was just a question of personal preferences ? Any comments about the fitting ?

Can't comment on the jerseys, but the sizing of the Core bib tights seems aimed at average size people, rather than a 'race' fit. They're nice quality.

Actually that's a point, thought I just had unusually short legs.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
