Hi everyone.

I am planning to buy POC Ritte Jersey and POC Essential Bib shorts online, but I couldn't find any sizin information about them.
I wonder if there is anyone tried / bought them and help me with sizing.

I am 183cm tall and 63kg.
Small size Rapha Super Lightweight jersey fits perfect on me. My chest should be like 87cm or so...

Yea. Its great.
But unfortunately its not for the road bike clothes. Wheels is their mountain bike series.
Also, I don't like this size charts, they never work correct. At least, for me.
But thanks anyway :)

Based on the road jersey I tried on, they run snug/small to size. I'd have to go up a full size over what I typically wear.

Today I bought M size bib shorts.

M size POC I have is a bit tighter but longer than my M size Rapha ProTeam bibs.
My S size Specialized bibs are at the same length but wider.

I'm 183 cm, 71 kg, broad shouldered, very long legged.
I have inherited an Essential Jersey in size M. I like the design, but the the fit is a bit weird. The fabric used for the shoulders, upper back and chest is not very stretchy and even though I'm rather thin there is a pressure point in the arm pit. The torso is the shortest I've come across in any cycling jersey.
You should try it on.
I also do not like the small size of the secure pocket zipper opening or the fact that it sits on the inside of the main pocket.

I was invited by my LBS today for a look at the new POC 2015 line. I tried on some items in S which pretty well match up to XS in Rapha.

very strange fit but I believe they are coming out very soon with a racing line of jersey's and knicks that should be much better fits

I have this jacket. 5'9", 81kg, I have a Medium. It's a race fit for me. It's a little bit of a funny fit while standing up (short front, long back, long arms) but it's fantastic on bike. Very comfortable.
