Pink EF helmet for commuter. Weird?

I found a pink EF cycling helmet for sale. It’s a good helmet, but idk anything about EF. I’m also a commuter wearing basic kit otherwise…. But it’s a good helmet for a good price.

Weird to see someone in basic kit and panniers, wearing a bright pink EF helmet?

Semi casual cycling clothing

I love taking my road bike out to pubs, cafes, out shopping etc. but don’t want to be in full Lycra on arrival, or have to change into casual clothing I’d have to carry on the bike.

At the same time, I’d rather not be in denim shorts or cotton hoodies on the road.

Is there a brand or line of clothing I should be looking for? More tech-y cycling shorts that aren’t super tight fitting, hoodies that I can throw on and won’t get too hot or act like a sail on the road?

I saw Chrome Industries Cobra hoodie and that looks perfect, but can’t find in my size.

Appreciate any and all help!

Back pocket folding techniques

This may be a silly question, or a good one, but I was wondering if there are any diagrams or ways people know for folding, rain jackets, gilets, anything really super neat and small to put back into your jersey pocket. It sounds basic, but behind any pro is a method you didn't know about,

Long sleeve button-down shirt for bikepacking

Hi all,

I'm looking for a long-sleeve snap-button down shirt for bikepacking for tropical weather, something pretty much exactly like these two;

But the Cognative one doesn't seem to be made anymore, and the Orionride company is getting some pretty shitty reviews...

Any other suggestions?

Does this jersey fit?

Hi!

I just got a new cycling jersey, after having a more relaxed fitting before and I'm unsure, if it fits as intended, or if it's to tight? It feels comfortable, as it's very stretchy. But, as it's so stretchy and thin, I can see every unevenness through it, from nipples, to veins.

Sorry if this was a stupid question. :D

Upcycled Gear

Is there any interest in a brand that is created from "recycled" shirts? Think cropped gravel shirts, but thrifted polo button ups with rear pockets added. They would all be one of a kind, lower costs, and provide a fun twist to training.

The emphasis would be to find shirts that are similar material blends of jerseys to ensure they were breathable.

Help me see the flaws in this idea!!

My girlfriend said that I look like someone that don’t wave back to other cyclists. Is that true?

Assos bibs

Just came here to say I get it. Been cycling for almost 3ish years now and finally invested in a pair of bibs for this summer. Wow, I get the hype. If you’re on the ledge and rather buy cheaper bibs and not be happy with them, just make the switch. These things are awesome.

That’s all. I’ll take a Cappachino and a cookie.

Any experience with RH77?

Hey everyone, usually purchase kits from assos but I’ve been trying to add some variety. Stumbled on this boutique brand called “rh77” was wondering if any of you had experience with the brand? Does it compare to assos? Or should I just stick with what I know. I have attached a picture of what I would be getting in case that helps!

Does this cycling jersey fit me properly?

I’m new to cycling and I’m not very familiar with jersey fit/size. Does this cycling jersey fit me, or is it too big?

Is this correct fit?

Extremly new to cycling, bought first cheap brand i heard of which was Siroko. Clothes came today. They feel comfortable based on the expectations i have but i have no clue tbh. Does it look correct enough? Im 186cm 95kg coming from bodybuilding background so the look feels tight

My first Rapha item + Clipless Shoes?

Hey guys, hope you're all doing well,

I've been running pedal straps since the start of my fixie journey, I recently decided to explore into the wonderful world of clip-less pedals. I then used this excuse to justify a small purchase of a cycling cap (to look cooler of course because it's Rapha), I actually purchased this casquette because I loved the colour scheme when I first found it, upon receiving it, I discovered it's actually from the 2016 TDF. I wanted to know if anyone had further information on this item, as I cannot find anything at the moment. It fits well, but the majority of my head circumference is hair at this point, so I need a haircut. As for the shoes, they’re a pair of Mavic Cosmics I believe, I got both items second hand and I am very pleased with how they look, I cannot wait to cycle in them both and grow the Rapha collection.

Thank you and have a great day.

Helmets for oval head shape, with deep internal mold

Hi there!

I am in a process of buying a new helmet for gravel/road cycling.

My head shape is more oval and i have quite a high forehead, so i am looking for helmets that have deeper internal mold and are not shaped like mushroom that sit on top of my head 🥚

While i cant try all the models in person, I’d love to get some first-hand recommendations while researching the market! Thanks 🙏

Sweet Protection Falconer 2Vi Aero

Hey guys, just got this falconer aero making my switch from a size M kask protone. This is also an M/L 56-59. I measured my head and it is 56, idk but when its with the aerocovers it looks like a big mushroom on top of my head. What do you guys think, does it looks decent?

What's your best value-for-money cycling clothing & shoes brands?

Hey Redditors, I think it's always better to ask around before pushing my cart to checkout! Yeah, that's me..

I’m looking to upgrade my cycling wardrobe and wanted to ask the community: Which cycling clothing brands offer the best value for money? I’m not necessarily looking for the cheapest stuff, but gear that performs well and lasts without taking too much from savings.

Also curious - any other specific brand for cycling shoes; beside sidi?

I mainly ride road (including some longer climbs and fast descents), so breathability and fit matter, but I also want durability and decent pricing. Any recommendations for summer or cooler weather are appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Jersey that still looks good when sweaty

Have some maap jersey in a pastel sort of solid color. Looks and fits amazing but once it gets sweaty it looks terrible.

What are some recommendations for jerseys that still look good or hide the sweat?
