I bought a pair of their bibs and jersey back around Easter time. The top is ridiculously nice to wear and looks amazing, and the shorts are the comfiest I've used by far. I even have a castelli cycling cap* :oops:
*it's no comfier than any other cap, it's just a cap FFS, it looks amazing though.0 -

Yeh, I'd considered going down the On-one Lurcher route, purely based on the fact there is no denying it's excellent value. But something about but the FF29 really appeals to me.0

I only rode my lutcher up and down the drive once before I sold it but it sure did look pretty

Good purchase, mines a lovely fit. Mine took a hit against a tree on Monday, and stood up well.
Nice to ride with now the evenings are getting cooler that's for sure.0 -
Not 100% sure about it, after trying it on a few times. The shape of the fit's fine, but it doesn't fit as well as my cheaper Specialized. The small's definitely too small, but the medium could maybe do with being just a tad more snug. Undecided whether to keep it, or send it back (already got two excess unused new helmets, and don't need another lying around...).
Meanwhile:
Royal Racing Turbulence jersey in black/ash - £18 (redudec from £45). Wanted something long sleeved, now summer's vanished overnight last week.0 -

Yeah, I preferred the look of the black, and black goes with anything, lol. I prefer subtle looks, and don't have the riding skills to go with lairy colours, lol.
How's the fit? Think it'll go over elbow pads?0 -
