Are there any nasty surprises with the sizing of Mavic tights and shorts?

    I got some Mavic Sprint bib shorts and 3/4's on the Cycle Surgery sale. I'm 5'9 with 34" waist. Went for UK size Small (International size Medium). Fit really well.

    Also got the Sprint jersey in UK Small (International Medium) and that fits really well also. I'd recommend as a great bit of kit but sizing is a bit peculiar as I would expect to be a UK medium every time!

    Trick is to buy in 2 sizes and return the one that doesn't fit... :wink:

    im a big fan of mavic gear however im starting to question the overall quality of the jerseys. I have 3 espoir jerseys all of which have now started to fall apart with around 12 months riding. The sprint bibs and 3/4 seem good quality but I dont think I would buy glove, jackets or jerseys again.

    sizing about what you would normally expect. Sprint shorts are excellent as are the sprint jerseys. Got the top range jerseys and am really happy with them...recommended
