I have a Shimano top/bottom from Ebay that doesn't fit properly and the material isn't stretchy... so useless!
It probably would have been OK it it fitted, but it cost too much to post back - so I cut my losses. Unfortunately as it's fake, I can't sell it on to someone who it might fit. So it has been a waist of time and money for me!
I now buy from UK sellers. Personally I'm not into 'team kits' anyway - so prefer to pay a little bit extra and just get the cheaper 'non team' kits from UK suppliers.
Although saying that.... I own a PX bike and usually ride with the PX Team kit.. but only because the tops were on sale for £10-£15Simon0 -
Will stay well clear of them, thanks.Cervelo S5 Team 2012

I ordered the Leopard Trek kit (bibs and SS jersey) from leahsue2010. Certainly very comfortable and looks the real deal apart from the writing around one cuff.
Edit: +1 for the PX kits, I have a whole pile - though I think they've probably sold out now!0 -
Had a Sky one from one of 'those' websites to test them out and it was ok...0

I know people who have bought them- mate of mine bought some from ebay- looked ok from new but faded badly and the chamois after washing is like a pitta bread.
Best thing was, I bought last season's team kit from wiggle at 35% discount that cost approximately the same as his cheap knock offs- and the quality is much better
It's a lottery- some kit is good , some aint, and of course it's a pain to send back. I'd look for last seasons discounted genuine kit myself0
