Hello is your opinion about castelli clothes ?

I want to buy summer clothes bids and jersey and i do not know from which brand to choose?

Any other options?

please help.

castelli are ok. there's loads of brands out there to try. Of course, if you're like me & the offspring has all the good stuff, it means that one's personal budget for cycling attire tends to stretch as far as Lidl or Aldi.. sigh..

Here's a few brands..

dhb
Pearl Izumi
NorthWave
Nike
Altura
Lusso


Of course if money is no object, you could push the boat out and go for

Campagnolo
Assos
Rapha

for £186 or so. Can't wait to get it now, would just say it's best for you to try some Castelli clothing on to get the size right. Altura stuff I'm a Medium but Castelli I'm XL
My LBS had some stuff but not what I was after, I could have got L in the Bib shorts but the bib part was too short for my quite long torso - saaved me oprdering the wrong size.
