what kind of cushins is spexcel using? elastic interface or own?

Any suggestions for aliexpress Bibtights for relatively cold weather? Like from -5 to 5 °C.

I use Castelli SORPASSO RoS Wind but they are relatively expensive. Does anybody have a suggestion for me?

The SPEXCEL look good, but I dont understand for which temperature range they are made for.

Just received my Rockbros socks. Was curious about them as they appear well made and are dirt cheap. They do look nice and fit well, but they are pretty thin and don’t seem very durable. They’re almost transparent around the ankle/heel area.

I’ll give them a go on a mtb group ride tonight and see how they perform, but I think I’ll stick to defeet and other big brands in the future.

I've been using the Rockbros socks for about a years now. I have a pair in each colour offered. I find them very durable. I use them for running too. My first pair, in black, has probably been through the wash 20 times and is still in good shape! I had very little faith in them when I first ordered, and thought what can I lose for £2ish. I just thought they were too cheap to be any good, but I've been very pleasantly surprised.

I have a pair and they’ve been great. They are very thin, ideal for summer riding.

I received my Spexcel bibtights yesterday. They claim the pad is a Dolomiti one, judging by the looks, it might be a Aria Brocon. Haven’t yet tested it outside, but they look solid, stitching looks very well made, they fit like a glove. I am no light rider, currently sitting at 85 kg, 180 cm. I chose size L, as I have all my La Passione stuff (RIP) in L, and they are true to size.

I got the spexcel thermal jersey a few days ago, but I caught a nasty respiratory illness on Saturday so I haven't been able to get out much.

The jersey is high quality and fits true to EU sizing (EU XS / Asian S). It has a light fleece lining, with tight cuffs that fits your wrists nicely. Combined with the compression, you could probably wear this in like 5c weather with a heattech base layer from Uniqlo and be quite toasty. Pockets are in a good position too - it's incredible value for the money.

The only points I have to dock off is that the first order came with a broken zipper - these jerseys have a rubber zipper, so the defective jersey had a broken in half zipper. Luckily, since I ordered this off of Taobao, the returns were easy. So, I got it exchanged and my sister returned to Canada. But I mention this, because Spexcel's customer service isn't exactly that good, especially overseas. Secondly, the lettering came with ironing marks. It's not as visible in person under natural lighting conditions, but something to note.

The ironing marks from the letters on the back are very pronounced.  At least on the photo every letter is surrounded by a visible rectangle in the main fabric.
Well..I like my Spexcel jerseys, but I think I will stay with them and not order new ones. Thanks for sharing!

does someone has experince with darevie? on rion and ywyk bibs i use asia L and EU M! 1,81 and 70-71kg! should i can someone help?

I bought a "DAREVIE Cycling Jersey Long Sleeve Men Women Cool Technology Man Cycling Maillot Soft Breathable Quick Dry SPF 50" in size Euro M and it's TINY. I'm tall and slim (186cm, 70kg) and usually buy size M but this jersey is super short and my belly button is not even covered and it's very tight. I'd say it's an XS.
I also got some RION shorts with Dolomiti pad in Euro size M and although a little tighter than usual size M they're fine.

Yeah. I forgot to mention those in my post, but they're not as visible under regular lighting luckily. It's not something that bothers me as I won't ever see it, but the photo is there to show that as well. For $53 CAD flat though, I can't complain.

Edited post to mention the marks.

Just to show how small this size Euro M DAREVIE jersey is, here is a pic of it laid on top of a Pearl Izumi size M.

If I got this for myself my wife would be sooooo happy hahaha

[Grumms]

Anyone tried those long sleeve jersey? https://a.aliexpress.com/_EvY8mVi

I love the design.

And for the sizing, I'm Euro M for any clothes I buy, but on AliExpress, I have to take XL for everything.

[shoushou]

I got this jersey here.
With a undershirt and a gilet been good for about -5C
It’s got long arms and tight hems.
Long enough for me and quite snug which I like.

The color is a bit muted.
I’m 193cm and 78kg with a 102 cm chest. Went with a European L as per size chart. Could’ve been an XL for looser fit.
