Seeing that winter has nearly run its time im now looking at getting some warmer weather clobber.
Right the 3 kits i like are Omega Pharma, Lotto Belisol and the Team Sky one and id be buying the jersey and the Bibs.
BUT being new to the cycling world would i look a bell end wearing one of them, ive looked around at normal brands and so far i only like the Castelli range.
What should i do.?

i say buy what you want to wear. wear what you want

 

[musa]

Buy what you like really! and also what within your means

 

[mark st1]

Try and try some on buy whats comfy.

Buy any - you'll look like a tart in them anyway.

 

[redcard]

But something without garish logos

Buy Castelli. Super comfy, stylish (IMO) and you will be pleased. I have Castelli winter bib tights and spring/summer bib shorts. I then just wear one of my team or normal jerseys. The only clothing I look at prat in is the "King of the Mountains" jersey that a relative bought for me - especially as they know that 1) I live on top of a god awful hill, 2) I hate hills and 3) I will look like a prat

The castelli stuff is awesome, I'm a massive fan of it.

+1

I want more of it, but the missus is always complaining

 

[Kestevan]

If you buy Castelli, remember that like many Italian brands their basic sizing starts at Pixie

Go up at least 3 sizes and you might find something that fits - unless you're build like me... dont think they do bib-shorts for people over 6'1" & 14st.

 

[DooDah]

Agreed, I am nearly always a medium, but with Castelli I a certainly a large

If you're looking at spending some cash, you can't go wrong with either Castelli or Assos (I prefer Assos).

 

[mattobrien]

Another thumbs up for Castelli from me, I am very big fan of their kit / have a growing collection of it. That said, when it comes to bibs, you can't beat Assos.

 

[Andy_G]

Well I'm 5'10 and 15 st so maybe a team kit isn't an option I guess.

 

[DooDah]

Ar, but Assos is way more expensive than Castelli
