    I bought some custom stuff from them..NEVER again! The shorts and chamois was crap and they lied about the order being completed. Don't forget there are import duties that have to be paid as well. Quality wise, it is below Verge, Voler but slightly above Champion-System.

    Why import duties? Aren't they in Italy, hence no import duty for buyers in the EU? There is a sizing chart in cm, so for jackets and jerseys measure your chest and waist as it says in the pictures. Large, for example, means approx 39" chest for men.

    The points moot if the stuff is crap, but thanks anyway

    Well, we don''t live in the EU so there were duties for us. The stitching on the jersey pockets failed so we ended up with a uni-pocket in the back. Stitching around the chamois came undone after a month of use. There is also the language barrier to consider. Some basic design changes either took too long or were just not done (attention to detail lacking).

    It got so bad when they were delaying the order (and not returning emails or calls), that we had to 1) have a friend who speaks italian call and ask for the owner 2) go through the UK distributor to put pressure on them to answer the delay/shipping questions. Very unprofessional outfit, don't do it. :roll:
