Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

Sample Sale next Friday

            Rapha is holding its annual end-of-summer sample sale next Friday and Saturday. Taking place at London’s finest lightweights shop, Condor Cycles, the sale will be held at the following times:

Fri 21 August, 5pm – 8.30pm
Sat 22 August, 10am – 5pm

i was so waiting for it!

It'll be carnage on Friday.

last year was mental. i didn't bother going in and stayed ouside drinking beer. i am lucky that i am xs ha!

Great another fight for still slightly over reasonably priced Rapha. I'll be there.

It's a bit expensive isn't it?

Bibs for £40 last time. Only for the fuller figure though. Hai 5

Really want some of their bibs... chance of there being medium -> 0

From my experience, if you're first in line, you get to rummage through the box of returned items (can find a good bargain in there). If you're not, there's no point in queueing, as they keep replenishing stocks through both days.

I'm going to camp outside Condor from Wednesday night like a proper sale bargain hunter.

Should i PM you a list of stuff i want then? :)

i'm not gonna bother. i hear rapha is overpriced.

I actually need to stop buying Rapha stuff, as I don't seem to have much other kit these days. How sad is that? And I've got a 20% discount code that will expire in 5.5 months still to use.

What a tart (although clearly not as big a one as DJ)!

You can't keep hiding behind DJ, Andy.

I'm gonna hit this sale I reckon. Get me some more base layers and maybe bibs.

I want/need a stowaway badly.

It does look nice but it would be more expensive than anything i would actually carry in it!! (General point of bag fail)

i hate that you can't actually tell what the bag looks like from the photos

Not the point of Rapha photos... they are there purely to check that the product fits into your hue of glossy lifestyle.

Good enough for GOLD..

I'm sure most agree... I just feeling like saying it. Rapha is kind of ridiculous, no? Just strikes me as a silly category of clothing to put thought into. I mean you're going to put it on, sweat in it, and take it off. My cheap adidas jersey and tights work just fine.

That said, fashionable clothing for biking around the city could be useful... I've been tempted spend some money on this site quite often:

So much other choice detail in the above 'piece'.

He looks a little unkempt for a Rapha wearer.
