The jersey arrived yesterday.
The fabric is very nice, the sizing suggestion from Store contact was good. I am also able to reach the opening of the back pockets very well. Sometimes they are just positioned to high.  ... because?? I don't know.. maybe the Designers like it if the bags are rising up very high.

As information: The size chart shows fabric measurements. That's very often unclear and does explain why the sizing is sometimes such a big issue.

I can give some close up photos from the jersey in the next days. But basically it looks like on Aliexpress  :D

I ordered a pair of Cheji bibs.
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806211305421.html


6' / 78kg

I ordered XL based on recommendations/size chart.

Fit is okay. I should probably be in a size L instead of the XL. Fit of these inexpensive garments is always a bit of a gamble. Legs are pretty long covering about 2/3 of my thigh. 2.5hr ride in them was comfortable enough on the pad. I'm not sure how they would feel at 5 or 10hrs. I'm not keen to find out. Construction seems quality.

There are so many seams and hems everywhere. I'm not a fan. These will be relegated to winter trainer time. The straps are hemmed on both edges. The numerous fabric panels are all stitched together. I vastly prefer bibs with as few seams as possible. Fabric is decidedly not as nice as the PI or PMCC bibs that I usually use, but those cost 5x more.

I won't buy another pair.

Sorry for your loss but you ordered WAY too big. I'm 187cm/85kg and I wear L! XL is super loose for me. You might even want an M if you prefer a snug fit. Their sizing chart (as with all china clothes) is super unreliable. You always want to check reviews for size recommendations or just order multiple and see what fits best. At least that's my experience.

Not sure about the version you ordered, I have the pro variant, and they are one of the best if not the best china bibs I have. Yes they have quite a few seams but it never bothered me at all. The pad works great for me even for long rides. Just did another 6h yesterday without any issues.

But if the bib is (way) too big for you they will be uncomfortable as the excessive pad/fabric will start rubbing against your skin and cause irritations and scuffing.
Slow on the climb. And everywhere else.

I am 179/73 and M size for cheji works very well for me.

XL might be too loose for 78kg. L would have been a nice fit.

I bought this after your recommendation and rode it yesterday. I agree its the best I got from china so far. The design is not so great imho with the logo on the chest and a white stripe in the middle of the back. But the tissue, fit and overall quality is just very good. I bought size L while usually on European M. Thanks for the hint!

I also got one. The fit is great, but the colouring and text look really cheap... one more shirt to only use when I'm riding alone.
Would not recommend.

Weight and height is not the only factor. I weight less then You with the same height and need XL. L would be to small. But yeah I also under 10% bf and legs little packed - 59/60cm. Attached photo of legs that need XL if we got some other packed boys here. Another photo with the bibs I've shared recently. As u can see length is perfect with XL

I've just received this Rion jersey: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007537832192.html

Paid 20 USD (all in to EU) and it looks really good. Nice fit and the materials look high quality.

I've ordered an XS for my 172cm/65kg and it fits tight but I like it that way.

Got some YKYW stuff recently.

Socks with reflective stripes
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806486804730.html
Size medium fits my size 40 feet very nicely.   
The reflective stripes really pop.  Super nice socks for $4!


Jersey with reflective dot sleeves
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804989421652.html
Size Asia XS fits my 165cm / 55kg frame nicely. 
Reflective dots and stripe pop nicely.  The side panels are almost see-through.  The sleeve collars have a nice gripper material much like the YKYW bibs. There is a nice zipper cover flap on the inside of the jersey.

Not that much - around 1400W. That may be a surprise but I prefer high cadence and this is where I get highest power. I even recently switched to 50/34 and shorter cranks to be able to spin faster and don't put that much pressure purely on muscles.

87cm inseam, saddle height 77cm, cranks from standard 175 to 170 on all bikes from this season - best upgrade ever
