Needing a second opinion about this fit — it seems to me like it’s a little mushroom-y. But it does feel snug and comfortable. Size S so I can’t get a smaller size…
Also looking for other suggestions for any other brands/styles to try out. Unfortunately can’t try on a lot in person since my LBS only carries 1 type of non-MTB helmet and I didn’t like it.
what we think? right size or too small? i got a big swede (58cm) so like em snug, but y'know..
Hi I bought Mechanism Pro kit which costed 500€ and this is after one ride and one gentle wash (this is not mine first kit so i know how to gentle wash inside out and etc.). So here is the honest review, quality of the farbic is very nice, fit on the bike of the bibs is perfect much better fit than MAAP for example, but the print quality is crazy bad, also worth to mention that white parts of the bibs gets dark cause that bibs leak color.
Average rob rainbow jersey. Don’t take yourself too seriously, have a bit of fun in life :)
How many sets/shorts/shirts etc do you have and how often do you change it?
Returned the smith network helmet and went to a different shop. I prefer the fit of this giro agilis helmet way more.
The had a white lazer Z1 kineticore that I really wanted for the ability to store sunglasses, better airflow and the colour but it was literally twice as much as this one. Still kinda kicking myself in the ass for not buying it.
How does the fit look?
Had some spare wood lying around and decided to make a DIY wall mounted stand for my road bike.
The idea was pretty simple that is to support the top tube from two wooden blocks and keep the bike completely off the floor. I did search pinterest for some ideas and finally decided to go with this.
Very simple yet workable.
I have a small house and often bike used to come in my way. I wanted to make something for it so that everytime I don't band myself into it.
It’s not the prettiest bike rack in the world 😅, but it’s looks solid and now that it's in the air it does save a lot of space.😉
Would love some feedback from the community.
Well i am apprehensive that it shouldng fall. I think I need to put iron clips underneath it. Is it safe for long term storage?
Any suggestions to this mod?
This cost me almost nothing, so definitely open to suggestions before I call this a success 😂
What would you change?
Thanks in anticipation
I've been wearing Rapha kits here and there and noticed that, since the new CEO came aboard, the jerseys and bib shorts seem a little tighter? Haha, maybe it's me, but when I try on new kits from other brands, I don't feel like I'm encased like a sausage — it still feels "normal." Any thoughts?
30M - I’m new to cycling and haven’t made the jump to wearing a kit including bib shorts and jersey and everything.
Usually I just wear a gym outfit (compression shorts, 5” inseam shorts, and a breathable top). Occasionally on longer evening rides I’ve skipped the gym shorts and just worn compression shorts, but they are VERY revealing so I don’t feel comfortable wearing just those most of the time.
Is there a big difference between regular gym compression shorts and bib shorts? Do they hide the outline better? Currently, everything is on full display down one leg while I’m riding and it feels inappropriate to be showing that much of a bulge. If bib shorts are designed to hide this anatomy better, I might have to go try a pair on to see if I can make the switch.
Any recommendations are much appreciated - like I said, I’m very new and don’t know everything about all this stuff so take it easy on me please :)
This is isadore Echelon Aero Jersey,
Whose decision was it to glue together one of the most stressed part of the jersey?
I’m building an independent women’s cycling kit brand and want to design around real feedback, not guesses. I would love to hear from any riders who wear women’s clothing out there! Thanks in advance - survey link here:
I've been eyeing to get the sweet protection falconer for a long time. This is my first time trying it. On other brands like kask and kplus I'm a medium, but on sweet protection the medium doesn't fit me, so I need to go up a size.
Hi all,
I need some new SPD shoes. I’ve been using laced Giro Privateer for the past 7 years and they are battered. Not sure I want to spend a fortune but want something for long days. I’ve looked at some AliExpress / Temu shoes and they looked pretty impressive - any recommendations.
I’m doing mud, gravel and some road and I’ll be riding all seasons.
Any recommendations please?
Alright, so after my previous post, I was overwhelmingly informed to size down. So I did. And it looks like size S in Rapha is what fits me the best
I ordered S and XS to try both since some folks suggested I should try 2 sizes down. But XS doesn't zip up for me at all. So here's me trying size S
PS: Feel free to roast the bib shorts but these seem to fit well?
My wife is an anatomy professor and I knew she would appreciate it. I am loving the Stan Smiths….VeloStan.
