Tørm (Torm Cycling). Nice, and not pricey

Thanks.

Thanks.

Sorry...last few have the white band. None of our new jerseys have it including the next delivery next month...bit of yellow splashed about in those if you fancy something bright.

...'famous' has just fucked off from our description of the T7...it wont be reappearing until it is.

Haha, only banter mate, I'm a shit copywriter, although it is technically part of my job

I'm afraid we wont be doing the T6 again this year, for some reason the plain jerseys aren't in great demand.

This genuinely surprises me

...great news...the T7 will be in tomorrows Cycling Active...that's almost famous !

This genuinely surprises me

Me and Al expected the T6 and the T3 to be more popular, they were supposed to be very understated for riders who wanted to blend into the background, maybe they were too understated? Anyway...if enough people scream I'll do them again

Argh, looks like I need to get in on one before they disappear!

Wore my T7 for the first time today at HH. Was comfortable and kept me warm enough when waiting to ride and cool enough whilst riding. Best bit is it doesn't smell!
Haven't had a chance to test the pockets out yet, that will be on my next club run.

@ daveangel - I really think you guys are missing a trick by not doing long sleeved base layers. Your SL one is great and perfectly priced.

I know you can use arm warmers if it's cold, but LS are still nice. Also because they're not pure, they are harder wearing than say Icebraker - which is an advantage. Especially for sports with more movement and impacts.

I love my Icebreaker LS baselayer, but as well as being delicate they're fairly pricey. There are so many other markets for them as well. Just make sure you get picked up on search filters and I'm sure they'd be a good seller.

Good suggestion, in fact they are already designed and are currently being made, due in next month. Me and Al tested the prototypes in the Peak District in Feb and we've only just stopped wearing them !

Daveangel, I've got a few hundred quid coming your way if you can make a decent merino boxer short/trunk.

I own both Rapha and Velobici merino boxers, and I don't rate either model very highly. It seems obsolete to brag about your seamless construction (Velobici) or flatlock seams (Rapha) if the boxer itself is so roomy that it folds up underneath my top layer. (Btw, I am sure I am using the right size as the elastic waistband is spot on for the size I use). And they should be shorter – I feel like I am wearing mummy underwear as both brands reach almost up to my bellybutton. It's still lovely to wear good merino next to your skin of course, so I use them regularly, but they never feel quite right.

So knowing that Tørm are not averse to picking up a bit of inspiration from elsewhere I reckon you should just make an exact merino copy of the bog standard Armani trunks. I'd be happy to pay north of 30 quid a piece.

I'd love to say yes however me and Al only want to focus on jerseys and baselayers, do one thing well. Not only that we know nothing about making boxer shorts !

I thought he had suggested how to do this.

Last comment was tongue in cheek perhaps... but not trolling.
The Armani ones are my favourites. And AFAIK quite popular in general, sort of the Levi's 501 of underwear. Plenty of other very similar ones, D&G, Cheap Monday etc. Can't see why Rapha had to deviate from the standard template.

I thought you're banned from this thread James

No boxer shorts, no caps, no cups and no chamois cream. Me and Al just want to make the best jerseys and base layers we can and run our local bike shop...we'll leave the rest of the stuff to others.

Are you going to do cufflinks?

....I'll ask Al.

....he said 'No'.

Braces?

^trolliver schick

So, took the T7 out on a century today. Pockets held everything, money was kept nice and dry, and I still don't smell that bad.

Lovely jersey, will buy again!

Braces?

...umm braces....I'll ask Al.

...he said 'No'

you could call them ali's gaiters
