I still maintain that the Rapha merino base layer is the best product they do. Feels great, wicks well and they last forever.

Yeh I think I'm actually more keen on the base layer than the shorts at this point. Seen quite a lot of people saying the PT bibs don't stand the test of time, loose threads, cracked logos etc.
Also looking at Castelli X2 as I already have nano flex bibs and they're the comfiest bibs I own.
The problem with bibs - and most kit - is the litmus test is to ride it as much as you can and you usually can't return it after that.

How are peoples experiences with Rapha PT bibs for touring type riding? Doing some touring in the summer and planning on only taking 1 or maybe 2 pairs of bibs, was looking at top end DHB ones but with the PT bibs for under £100 that seems like a very good deal.
Also looking at the merino base layer if anyone has any experiences? 100% merino base layer for £30 seems too good to pass up.
