I didn't sign up last time solely because I did not like the design. Earlier in this thread I complained about the design while it was open to order.

Okay, fair enough.

Maybe someone can put up a poll to see what people didn't like about it. Maybe its just the orange color. Here is the original thread with a image of the kit with different colors:

Personally I like the design, but thats just me.

what is the sense of this funny comic figure?

I like the design as well and was hoping it would go through. Wishing I had bought the first time.

I don't mind the all orange, but I can see why some would find it too much. I am not a graphic designer type, but I would really like to see this get off the ground again. If anyone with the requisite skills is willing, it seems to me the current template can be converted to a mostly black kit, with orange and white highlights and details, if you switch the orange panels on the sides and shoulders of the jersey to black; in this scenario the color scheme of the bib shorts would still work, or that could be moderated slightly also by working in less orange and more white? If the jersey is altered, it may be necessary to make some of the black lettering on the jersey white, depending how it is done. Like I said, I don't pretend to know what I'm talking about. But it's just a thought. What I really would like is to see a successful reorder -- I don't race on a team, so I need a decent matching kit!

Or maybe someone can use this as a model, as did our friend recently with the paint on his custom TI Baum Corretto?



That pallet could make a pretty cool kit, depending how many colors are permitted, and still maintain the weight weenies theme.

Go to:

Then it should be clear.

I like the idea. If you swap all the orange for black and vice versa you'd have a another good looking kit.
I am very happy with mine. It fits well the fabric is quality, the chamois is quality and it stands out on the road (Safety is also important).
Whether there ends up being a variation on the last kit or not I want another set so as soon as Alexei is ready to do it all again count me in

I think the design looks great except for the bug on the bib shorts. On the jersey the bug looks okay to me.

The design is to busy, to much text. Are the elements really necessary?

If someone is interested in redesigning this thing I would be willing to do the ordering again. I think new shorts are in order as the ones last time were extremely umbreathable, too tight in the bands, and the chamois was so so. The jersey however was excellent.

NEW Developments! If you are interested in a Weight Weenies kit please respond to the thread. I want to make the order happen before long.

After all the criticism my design received my self-esteem has been crushed, I've taken up smoking, and gained 50 lb.

I love that the LG stuff is light: easily the lightest kit I own. However, I agree it's not the highest quality stuff I've ever seen.
