What do you reckon? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Cycli...=UK_Cycling_Clothing&var=&hash=item3ceb13331b Maybe they wont be great quality but for the price you can't go wrong i'd say.

It depends what you want from a jersey- if you want one that's high quality, performs well and lasts several years then no- if you want a bargain that looks effective but may not last the season then it's a good price.
Baring in mind most of the pro stuff will be made in China you do wonder how much difference there actually is with stuff like this (imitation bikes excluded).

I'm not a fan of buying fakes. if I'm going to buy cheap, I'll just buy the best my budget can allow, not something that looks more expensive just so I achieve a 'look'. The originals of these knock offs in particular are made in Italy, they're not 'extras' made in the same factory by some enterprising soul after their shift so you really taking money away from Santini in this case.

As santini tops are made in Italy and the ones here are Chinese copies you get what you pay for.

They look like the same material as the cheap Karrimor tops you get for £6 , very thin and don't wash great .

Yes i do want a proper one but i don't want to pay forty nine quid for one when i could get 3 copies for the same amount. I don't know how they've got away with using the Santini name on the fake jerseys, i thought copyright would've seen to that?

It never stopped Chinarello,such considerations as copyright n` all.The blatant infringement of Dogma copyright always puzzled me

 

[BigAl68]

China and copyright. That's about all you need to say

Just bite the bullet and get one from prendas. Lovely company and great kit and you are keeping a small British business going.

I thought Prendas were Italian?

 

[BigAl68]

No British and prendas means clothing in Spanish.

I have the Molteni from Prendas too. Quality Jersey. Wil outlast 3 copies and I enjoy the comfort and fit whilst doing so!

Prendas was set up by a Musician who loved Cycling as a hobby. The business is no so successful, that he now treats cycling as his business and music as his hobby! So you tell me if its quality?
