Albion, nice and a reasonable amount of pocket locations

GideonPARANOID looks to be closer to your size so probably a better guide, but IMO you’d need an L for the length.

I dithered between 3 season and winter too but went for the former as I’ll be able to use them on more occasions than full winters, I reckon. If need be (like yesterday for instance) I use my Lusso leg warmers underneath, works really well.

Anyone fancy the ride down to the Beak taproom in Lewes on Saturday?

I'm in for this. Hoping to ride back too, weather (and taproom) dependant

Niche crossover question. Reckon I could squeeze a large Zoa into a medium wizard works frame bag? (2.5ltr)

Have not taken my XXL Zoa off in about 3 days. So comfy. Was cycling around town today with just a short sleeve t-shirt underneath.

I have a BNIB orange Zoa burner musette for sale. Got it for Christmas but surplus to requirements. LMK

No chance I'll ride back! Looking to set off from West Wickham at 8:30am if you/anyone else fancies joining?

Ordered a zoa insulated both for occasional bike and lots of general use, as my current lightweight down jacket is end of life.

Beautifully made piece of kit, probably the best piece of cycling clothing I’ve come across. However, the cut is very boxy, so the medium is well fitted across the shoulders with a little bit of pulling at the armpits, but you could fit a dozen burners up the front, and in cycling pose it’s super baggy around the front.

Very sad, but it goes back. Hopefully a “pro team” cut will be on the cards at some point, with just a little tapering from chest to waist!

Very sad to say I lost my forum list burner on a night ride earlier this week.

Thought I would see if anyone has one they are willing to part with before I put in an order for a new one. Ta.

I'm abnormally excited to use my patches to finally fix up my down / insulated jackets (both from skateboarding slams). Tempted to join the Spin on Saturday too.

I’m planning on going if anyone is from 4 boroughs, aiming for 8:30 ish

Just want to say a big thanks to Albion and crew for the ride on Saturday. A great route that had me feeling the right side of empty by the time i made it to Lewes. Cheers

^^^ second that. Really nice route and a great turnout. Props to the guys at Beak as well!

Also had a great time. Great route and taproom at the end, would like to cycle down there again once it warms up a bit

On the burner related note I wish they came in sizes more width and length options would be amazing. being on the tall side it doesn't cover as much as I would like.

Is the burner musette useful? Does it have a self-containing storage pouch like the standard burner? Besides the warmth of the burner I’m wondering if it does anything my teeny tiny decathlon bag can’t do

If you've got a burner and a musette, you probably don't need the burner musette. It's a nice bit of kit though and yeah, it packs down in to itself.

This what we’ve been waiting for?

Is the buff sewn in? Looks interesting indeed.

I should have added the link

I don’t think it’s part of it

I wish it didn't have ear flaps. I'd only wear a hat like that under a helmet whereas I'd regularly wear a regular cap

@stelfox thanks - just coming here to post; 11.00am tomorrow am UK time. I'm not sure if in the copy, but I think is best suited for M+L/XL head's; they look a bit mushroomy on small heads, so will be grading a smaller size for S/XS.

@joepud01 ....yes! Been saying this for a while, and think I'm only going one direction from here (more). I'm swamped atm, but I'd love to make a batch for LFGSS again, and do more variety in sizes/detail etc. I'll see if I can carve out sometime.

@ghostface not on the salesman pitch, but the neat detail about the packaway pocket in the Burner Musette, is it works as an internal pocket in the musette for phone/valuables. Keep your cash cosy.

@PhilDAS the ears do flip up, like a technical deerstalker(?). ....thinking of doing a beanie version... @skinny it's just the winter collar pulled up - considered integrating one for some riders on Fat Viking a few weeks back, but think versatility/modularity would be more useful. Some more good stuff in the pipe around layering head/neck/hoods etc.

@mcflute ....we did do a junior version for one of the teams newborn ;-)

Asking for a cheapskate, will the 20% Strava code work on this :)

Although I am a one of the above, the Zoa burner scarf is one of my best buys

Oh really? I am on the smaller side at 55cm, so I'll wait for that then.
