Aye. Mike has a few, size small, but they’re a bit too small. They’re not “aero” fit at all, so they don’t have those hip tight arms that are all the rage at the moment.

I have a ladies large and I fucking love it. Gets loads of comments, probably the most of all the jerseys I own (and I have a lot)

Here we both are in our Twin Sixes

He’s 6’2", is normally a medium in pretty much everything but we got these in the closing Omnium sale and they only had small jerseys left.

You probably know but Sigma Sports have a few, they’re in the sale atm too:

Saw some dead nice Cafe du Cycliste stuff in a bike shop in Nuremberg today. So expensive though.

Blows my mind that PM can be that tall and still be a medium. Those Sigr tops in XL are still a tiny fraction too small for me and I thought I was 6’3"/6’4"

Must have a short torso / long legs?

#1756

any more for the weekend of the 29th September then guysssssssss?

Big fan of this.

Also, looks like beer wanker meat is not happening, so could possibly meet you chumps for beerz, but may not. May just stay in S’hampton

Ooof. Do like a Genesis. Just looking at the geometry of their smaller frames and I think even those are a bit big for me :frowning:

They’re doing a sample sale in London next week:

Just realised that I haven’t posted a pic of my summer ride in here…

Offspring I has been at a variety of summer camps over her seven (!) week school holidays which involves dropping her by car somewhere in South East London each morning, parking up and then battling into work before doing it all in reverse in the afternoon. Rather than cope with the vagaries of different branches of public transport I decided that a folding bike that I could stick in the boot would be the best option (and probably pay for itself over the course of the summer). Hence hit up Decathlon for one of their bad boys. It’s definitely not a Brompton, but then again it also didn’t cost a grand. Riding it is curiously similar to riding a BMX - I keep almost wheelieing away from the lights. Rode my regular bike for the first time in six weeks the other day and almost instantly fell off as the centre of gravity is so different - I thought riding a bike was supposed to be one of those things you didn’t forget? 20 inch wheels which make it not entirely like riding a toy. Pretty nippy through traffic too, although the top gear doesn’t let you go too fast (probably a good thing as the brakes are…not great). Most I’ve done on it in one day is 20 miles, and it was comfortable enough over that.

Overall review - better than taking a commuter train/10

would love a go on one of these just to see what the handling is like. they look mad twitchy but i’m guessing you get the hang of it?

#1765

Yup, definitely feels a bit precarious at first but got the hang of it fairly quickly. The smaller wheels make it mad manouervable, so I have to be conscious not to overdo it through gridlock traffic in the morning. I’m 6’2 and as you can probably tell from the pic have the seat post about as high as it will go.

Other fringe benefit - riding it right up to the door of work and then parking it under my desk :+1:

#1766

how many gears does it have? how long to fold up/down?
