cycling cap at my local bike shop costs œ14.86, I need a new hat and don't like baseball caps much. Should I buy the Disco hat? Do you think I might be getting a good deal if I do?

    lol. Unreal eh? It's for a summer cap type cap, though it does look of good quality and waterproof/breathable type fabric...but still 15 quid is 10 quid more than it should be

    Dave - I presume that wearing Disco kit in China isn't akin to a 12 year-old wearing Chelsea or Man U kit
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    lol, yeah Monty Dog, the Discovery team is not akin to Man U. I hate wearing goofy baseball hats and want a cycling type hat, but I will not be ripped off..so no Disco hat. I think saying you're a fan of the Discovery Pro Cycling Team in China/HK would get about the same reaction as saying I am a member of VC Astar[8D]...blank faced looks from most 9of the populace [8D]. I think there is a Hong Kong Chinese guy joining Lampre though

    Or wearing Rapha kit marks you out as a twat with more money than sense!!

    One thing that really pans me is that the Nike stuff is actually really well made and good kit, particularly the thermal jacket and gillet. Unfortunately though it's only available in Discovery colours and that will prevent me and many others buying it.

    At least they have the ears that double up as earmuffs[:D]
  • I have no interest in Discovery of their merchandise anymore. You are more likely to see me in a Tinkoff kit.










    (well maybe!)

  • I think the Tinkoff kit looks terrible, in none of the pictures I've seen of the riders with the kit on seems to fit properly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Personally,I think it would be a bad idea to buy this hat.
    Whats the solution? Just pedal faster you baby.

  • I disagree, I think it would be a good idea to buy this hat.
