In fact here it is - using a different browser & not logged in

I think Ali gives brand new customers a "welcome deal" that lowers the price but it's only for your first purchase on the platform or something. It's dumb

Yep dumb & frustrating

Interesting that would work - wish I'd spotted it on my recent order for a pair of Elitewheels - that kind of % saving would've been worth the hassle. But for a few £s I wouldn't be bothered tbh - I'll just be pissed off instead  ;D

Does anyone have experience with this linked cycling jersey from the manufacturer YKYW-Bike?

I'm also looking for road bike jerseys that are a little wider cut, i.e. not aero fit.

They're nice jerseys, but they're a pretty aero cut.

I have a thermal jersey.  It's very racy indeed.  That's what I wanted ;D The fabric and sewing quality are very good.

Did someone try Inbike? They do look very nice in the photos. 
I am very tempted by that design in light blue/ green

Grabbed these YKYW bibs at the suggestion of a few other members.  They arrived today so I went for 90 minute tempo ride as soon as I pulled them out of the package.

Initial impressions are that these are very good especially for the price.  The stitching and straps are very nice and the chamois is very comfortable.

Honest question: Are you not washing your cloths, bibs especially, before first ride? Maybe I'm weird but I'm not sure I want my junk rubbing against any industry left-overs from the factory.
Slow on the climb. And everywhere else.

It's not only left-overs. To not have transport damages from fabric eaters , they put chemicals on the clothes. That's definitely  what you don't want on your skin.

Yesterday received spexcel top and penis knockoff bibs (pimmer) - I can't believe how far Chinese cycling clothing has come over the years. Both are excellent, I'd say the PNS bibs are about 85% of the real deal, and good enough for training.

The Spexcel top is lovely, apart from the zip. I just wish the Chinese clothing had better zips, but apart from that, all ok!

I was really hoping for superpowers for maybe some exciting color transfer.  Nothing happened, Just a nice ride comfortable ride.     Some of the graphic they put on the chamois started to peel off. Sent them a message about it and they offered me $6 off my next purchase.  Acceptable given its not something that *should* affect how the chamois functions.

Anyone can recommend a long bib for autumn/winter with extra long legs for tall riders?
