Stuart - any idea on sleeve length on the LS jerseys?
I don't know Ben, they're just long sleeved - sorry that doesn't help much.
OK, no worries. The risk of me looking like a gibbon with long arms is too high so I'll just go for a gilet, cheers!

Is this for short or long sleeve BTW?

Becky is interested in a ladies fit as she wears some size 6/8 clothes. So they should fit her as well?. So there is another one to the list

I've just ordered a large gilet, hope that fits OK
I will definitely have too many gilets! I already have a Morvelo one I'm yet to wear. This might be in the (smaller) pile that I won't mind getting muddy though
Stuart, thanks for sorting all of this out, I'm sure it's a major PITA and at these prices it's not a money maker

She's generally a UK size 8.

Fair play, I'm definitely tempted, if just for the hell of having one. :D

It's done out of pure love for cycling mankind Ben

Noted Mark - if we could just get 4 more ladies I think the price will almost drop to the level of the others - c'mon ladies, roll up.

I find them perfect for cycling in Richard and just as good for sleeping in

I would unless you're going for that deep south redneck look and wearing it on its own
Hmmm, tricky situation... Stu says go XXL and Mrs Barney (who works in the clothing industry) says XL.
Not sure who to listen to, the Oracle or the Boss... HELP !!!!

Biking clothing is based on a skinny Italian professional rider who's been on a diet so medium equates to an average 11 year old girl

I don't understand all the talk about sizes. I'm a normally a medium, so I ordered a medium last time and, guess what, it fits just fine!
It's a cycling jersey, I didn't think it was supposed to be flap about in the wind, unless you're planning on doing some 'duro
Anyhow, I'll probably have another (in medium) as I'm worried that when I wear mine out there won't be another to replace it.

Short sleeve jersey bought. Looking forward to shredding it on the local bramble-filled bridleways in Spring

You can't do that Greg. It's only through the generous sponsorship of the companies we are advertising that the cost can be kept so low.....

Indeed, one would think three separate bike brands is almost odd...
Either way, it's the actual bear on the front I want! RRRAAAAARRR I will smash your inflexible frame.
I'll stop now.

It's just as well that bear is only on the front....
.. after all, who wants a bear behind?

This surprises me!
I'm normally a small, but it has caught me out on a few cycling jerseys before where they've been too small!
