    I don't know its not that different from the Sky thread, Assos thread, Aero/None aero, shaved legs/none shaved legs really.

    If you have the money to buy the stuff, like its performance, style and attitude then its for you and your probably already buying it. If your buying it then you might well see this shoot as somewhat devaluing the brand that Rapha have built up buy going up against H&M or Next.

    If you don't then you probably are not going to like it and claim its overpriced and not as technical as other similarly prices stuff.

    That seems to be the 2 camps people are falling into & the arguments either way just go back and forth.
    Pain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.
