Recommendations for racing jersey

daddy0

I've just started racing, but my jerseys are all a bit baggy. Hence I'm looking for a nice tight jersey. I would buy a club one, but they are very slack at getting orders done. So in the meantime can you suggest a decent jersey that doesn't cost an arm and a leg?

I tried a DHB Trick, but the arms were very flappy. My DHB Prudential 2015 jersey fits great, but I'd rather wear something less lame when racing.

Cheers!

Have a look at Galibier.cc 's aero jersey is top notch, think it's £40/45. Mailed straight to yoour door for free, can't beat it

It's really good.

If you're already familiar with DHB's sizing then as above try the Goldline, or the slightly cheaper ASV is supposed to be decent too...

The ASV shorts got a very good write up on road.cc if you want the matching set.

Cheers chaps.

I did have some team kit made by Galibier, only the jersey was too baggy and the shorts had their last ride today - a rather pretty lady motorist informed me she could see my butt crack on the way home tonight, if only I was single/had no morals... They lasted barely (excuse the pun) a year...

I do like the look of the DHB gear, and I am still using a pair of DHB bibshorts I bought 3 years ago. Need new shorts too, so may well go down the ASV route.

Cheers for this advice. I did go for the ASV in the end, the Goldline jersey was out of stock in black so I took it as a sign to save a couple of quid. Not ridden in the kit yet, but tried it on and it is very nice, much nicer than I am used to. Got a 10 mile TT tomorrow evening, will be first go with the ASV and I can't wait :-)

Only down side to this is that the day after I ordered Wiggle sent me an e-mail telling me they'd increased the discount on DHB kit for platinum members. I toyed with the idea of sending this back and reordering just because :evil:

Might be worth emailing them and asking for the discount?

Reminds me that I need to order some before the discount runs out tomorrow! Can't decide on the colour...
