Sure, but I was wondeing if there was any “old” model that had this feature. 380€ for the S9 is too much

Another option: Maybe you can find the Habutights without insert. I pull that on top of a summer short or if its below 5C a spring/fall short and maybe knee warmers.

Anyone using their shoe covers?
I’m after something more to keep dry as much as warm, can’t wear my white shoes in the rain...
The silver aero covers look really good

The Mille GT s/f jacket (Ritterkapsel) has some water repellency, doesn’t it?
The Tiburujacket has none.

Quality is the same, but the Tiburujacket was replaced by the Ritterkapsel.

Anyone have/use both the Rapha Pro Team and the RS/RSR bibs? If so, how do they compare and is the sizing similar?

The Pro Teams's work very well for me, but the Assos stuff is currently on sale, so I'm thinking about giving them a try

Yes. Both size the same for me.

Assos win the bibs battle hands down IMO.

The Rapha bibs squeezes your balls...the RS/RSR bibs cradles them. Sizing is similar. I personally like the fit and material of the RSR ones.
