  • I took two pairs on the TCR and wore them for a few big long training rides running up to it. Would recommend. Prefer the fit over the Brevet range - the straps on the PT range are a bit more elastic than the Brevet ones, which suits my body length better.

    Echo @andyp's statement about the merino baselayers - I have a few in long and shortsleeve variants and they get a lot of use. As long you wash em at a low temperature and avoid mixing them with Velcro bits in the wash, they'll last really well.

  • Thanks for the comments!

    How have the PT bibs lasted in terms of longevity? Stitching? "RAPHA" Logo? Those are the bits that quite a few people have mentioned have let them down, but it does seem a lot of those comments were from a few years back, they might well have improved since then.

  • The logos have discoloured a touch - wouldn't say they are bright white anymore, more of a cream. No cracking though. Stitching is fine too - worth keeping the repair policy in mind. They'll repair your shorts for free if the stitching does break down.
