Anyone got one? Any good? Dead cheap now. Quite fancy one if they are good to wear, regardless of the design......

    Yes I have the Red one (I am OK with the design). Luckily I didn't pay full price for mine...

    Not quite as good as the Pro Team but close. Nice good tight fit and good materials (not quite as stretch in the body). I am probably going to get another one. The only thing for me is that it a little constrictive at the neck, but and this is a massive but is because I wear my jerseys tight so I can get the body length right for me. It means that they in turn are very tight in the chest neck area for me and this applies to any jerseys I have.

    Ta. I am usually a large in the classic so I assume size up?

    Sorry Bender can't comment, as I now size my jerseys by body length as I hate having it bunch when I lean forward. I would say you would be probably alright staying with your normal size. The arms are good stretch wise

    I'm on the cusp. 41.5 chest. I hate that foldy thing as well. But, sometimes, it's nice to have it a bit looser. Hmm....

    I've also gone for one. I actually like the blue/white, and if it's the same cut as the classics/tour ones released this year then should be good. I ordered two sizes to get right - free returns helps.

    Is that from the famous dance and stage school?
    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.
  • Stay with the same size in the Pro Team/Trade Team range of you're used to Classic stuff - though it'll be a snugger fit, the pockets will be less prone to sagging.
