Hi Robert - this has been really helpful, thank you! Have you had a chance to get out and about to give it a decent test yet?

Hi, so far, unfortunately, just once each for me and my teammate. I’ve also sent the suit to the Netherlands and once to Bavaria through the forum—maybe we’ll get some feedback on those soon.

But we were both very satisfied. It has a race fit, and the materials are very thin (good for hot weather, but not my first choice right now with the changeable weather). The pad is super round and well-placed—all the pockets and the zipper work. My buddy had a 2L hydration bladder that fit very well—the only thing that needs some tweaking is managing the drinking tube—I didn’t have a hydration bladder, so I used the back pockets to store two Sugarflasks. Overall, very satisfied.

Funny side note: Feedback from my buddy is that “putting it on” with a full hydration bladder isn’t easy.

The first official race outing will be at the Hegau UCI Gravel Race; maybe one or two of you will see the suit in action.

Re: Custom RoPa Cycling Aero Gravel Suit Hi,
Heres the Bavarian guy that got the suit sent to.

I didnt race it yet in a gravel race, but for normal riding its pretty awesome. Im 183 75kg and the L Size works just fine with a nice race fit.
Because i liked the suit so much, i started customizing out own pure road race suits as well with Tarstone. As Patrick said communication is really easy, pricing super fair and once we've agreed to the final optics well order them as well.
Just one thing id like to mention is that im not the biggest fan of the leg sleeves. Initially they hold great but after a couple kf monthes they start to roll up and dont look so nice anymore. Didnt happen with the suit yet but with my other similiar AliExpress bibs.

LG

Re: Chinese cycling clothes Just received this skin suit. The quality is simply outstanding. Even the chamois is sawn in the way Assos to theirs with the middle part left not attached, and is of GREAT quality. The fabric is very airy and stretchy. The sizing is also nearly spot on, but as I expected the top is not as skin tight as I would like because you cant specify different sizing for the top and bottom. So I went with XL for my 188cm and 78kg frame. I typically ger EU (L) for bottom and EU (M) for top for tall the Asian makers. This gets me all tight without being restrictive. Here, the top could have been a size smaller. If I went with Large, then the legs would have been an issue.
Other than that, extremely happy with this and might take this to a seamstress for minor adjustments.
Bonus......... ZERO dumb slogans.

Any chance you could share a picture wearing it (here or through PM)? I have similar dimensions, but I'm always woried about the leg length being too short based on the review pictures I've seen so far.

Updated with picks. Today I just came back from a 4h fast ride. Went ahead and bought the grey colour. One of the best clothing items I bought for Ali.
