Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

Fuck it just make a Mapei kit and be done.

And Rabobank.

The real question is would Pantani be MAGA if he was still alive?

yes based on colbrelli

its weird that lance is a democrat

Damn I missed these when first out. Would definitely buy now. Any chance of an Albion tribute?

its weird that lance is a democrat

Or just maybe a Republican

Does any clothing maker have a short/no sleeve rain "jacket"? I've got an older castelli one but it's like a short sleeved binbag, end up wet from sweat rather than rain

Rapha used to make a waterproof rain gilet. I love mine.

shakedry from gore best ever

They do a short sleeved one?

I’ve got a PT Race Cape (medium) you can have for £35 posted. Lines pre marked on the sleeves ready to chop with scissors.

How big is it armpit to armpit? I'm a large usually

I’ll take measurements later and give it a once over - it’s been unworn for a few years.

From what I remember the chest and shoulders are generous but the waist is pretty slim.

the chest and shoulders are generous

Must be a different race cape to mine then!

So yeah, I was completely wrong. It’s tight all over other than the upper arm but that’s probably more to do with my pipe cleaner arms.

50cm pit to pit, 38cm waist hem. Very unlikely to fit anyone who normally wears large given I am small in most Rapha.

I had to size up as well. Upper arm was like a sail. Good resistance training for sure. Plus felt like in a sauna. Sold it immediately and bought the shakedry.
I use it for running too. That has good ventilation superb light but very fragile so should never wear a backpack over it

Didn’t the original PT Race Cape come out 5/6 years before the shakedry

I had the rcc version

Anyone know of any rapha discounts? Can't bring myself to pay £110 to try the technical shorts.

Yikes that's a lot. I've some Rab Torque shorts that should be a lot cheaper. Comfy flexible and zips.

Sigma have a few smaller sizes discounted - https://www.sigmasports.com/item/Rapha/Technical-Shorts/111EB

15%, if it helps?

Moths have absolutely destroyed my Rapha merino shirt-cardigan thing. Clearly it was a nice, useful, design so it's been taken out of production.

Anyone know of a similar item elsewhere in the universe? The Googles just give me lots of Partridge cardigans.

I don't know what the Rapha one looks like, but Howies do, or did, a decent merino shirt.

RIDE20 gets you £20 off when you spend £100.
