  • In desire to be comfortable this winter have succumbed to some Rapha. Bought base layer pack, looking at pro team thermal bib shorts. Will be interested to know if you think they are worth the outlay SF?

    Was looking at gloves, overshoes and leg wamers as well, but went elsewhere for half the price.

    I bought some thermal DHB bibs a while back on a whim. I use them all the bloody time. I hope the Rapha version will be as versitile, just nicer.

    Plus points re: thermal bibs.

    • You can add either knee warmers or lag warmers so they cover 3 temp ranges.
    • Adding separate knee and leg warmers allows you to dial in the length (tights are often too long or too short).
    • Much easier to add/remove warmers when temps change mid ride.
    • I actually use mine without warmers a lot. If its not super warm. They work as summer bibs for me.

    I going to be in inch thick woolen baselayers, a softshell, and hardcore Amfib tights for winter. Not sure Rapha could help me there.
