Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

New glasses are nice and not that pricey.

Are the Carl zeiss made lenses still?

Do the nose pieces fit Asian noses ok? Looking to replace Jawbreakers as the nose pads aren’t quite big enough and the edges rest on my cheekbones. #highcheekboneproblems

Don't quote me, but I believe that's the reason two nose pieces are supplied.

@skinny No, Rapha has developed their own ROSE (Rider Optimised Surface Enhancement) optics. I must say out the box I was impressed with the clarity from the lens, not tested on the road yet though.

Bought some pro team II bibs, classic flyweight jersey and core lightweight today. First time I’ve bought any kit since I left Rapha three years ago. Have tried alternatives in the mean time and regretted it every time... the VFM nowadays is pretty good I reckon. Bibs still kinda spenny but the jersey’s are cheaper than any I’ve bought recently and are just so much better.

2 lenses too, I think I will buy.
Clearly conditioned by Oakley to thinking that £130 isn’t pricy...

Shame. Maybe it's good but the zeiss lenses were the business. I guess it's a way to claw back margins

I think they fit just fine, I do have a wider nose but as @monkdagola stated they do have nose pieces for adjustments. Best thing I would recommend if you can head over to Rapha shoot to test it out if they suit your helmet and nose profile.

I think given the current guidance / not London based, I’ll online buy and try.

Anyone got a small amount (10cm x 20cm)of thin softshell material? Need to repair a couple holes made by a crash and rapha won't repair without proof of purchase.

If anyone tries the new glasses along with a kask protone, grateful to know if they fit or not...

Is this a new thing?

Pro team jersey vs PT Flyweight much difference worried the flyweight might be too light for UK summers

it is, only for that 1 week of 'heat wave'

They have been really insistent, never knew about it before. Kind of screws me over having bought it in store at Condor and not keeping the receipt.

Credit card statement?

Not sure about the new classic Flyweight colour fade

Killing it with these socks

the jersey is a total let down, caps nice

Pro Team shoes fit. Narrow? Wide? Somewhere in the middle?

Giro Empire's fit me well because they're narrow, could i go down have a size in PT to get a snug fit?

Bloody love Geoff McFetridge. Cap and gilet are bellissimo

Anyone know when RCC club rides are back on?

Brevet was so 2011:

From the RCC UK update yesterday:

The risks associated with COVID-19 have not gone away in the UK and still present a significant challenge for us to overcome. We appreciate that members miss the connectedness and camaraderie on the road while also wanting to respect each other's differing levels of vigilance and exposure to the virus. For this reason, we will hold off on group rides for now, and remain focussed on ways to keep you riding, motivated and meeting on the road.

Any reason to change my Rapha Classic sunnies to the new versions? Old version has Carl Zeiss glass.
Was going to get some Pro Team Full Frames, but spotted the Classics as an extra.
