Assos compared to q36.5 bibs?
Also has anyone also tried Albion bibs? I've got one of their jerseys which are nice.

Didn't want to start a new thread.


Any experience with the essential bib from pas normal studios?

I like the branding more then the mechanism.

How would people with experience rate Siroko's SRX bibs vs Gobik offerings?

Interesting that I haven't seen either PEdALED or DotOut listed in this thread ... both Italian made clothing lines. PEdALED was started by a Japanese designer, but is Italian based - part of the Selle Royal group along with fi'zi:k - and DotOut is also based in northern Italy.

I'm a big fan of PEdALED - elegant and classy looking, quality fabric and fit and it always surprises me I don't see it more often (a lot of PNS or CdC or Rapha on rides I'm on). It's probably better known in the adventure / gravel communities I guess.

Just ordered a couple of SR2 jersey's from a New York company by the name of Search and State. Quality looks like it's there. Should arrive this week and will report on fit. I didn't want something to far out there and there solid colour jersey's seemed like a good option. Good customer service with quick responses to my sizing questions. Give them a look!

Their gear looks good, but the oversized collar might become an issue in summer temps?

I have a bunch of their kit. Great quality, but I reserve it for cooler temps as the fabrics are a bit heavy and the collars are high.

The fit is also a bit non-standard, narrower at the bottom and wider at the top - seems like it's more for a very v-shaped body.
