Unfortunately they only ship to the Netherlands and Belgium.
Just ask them; they will send it; I got them to Slovenia
Email sent. I hope they ship to Canada. Is there a button to show their website in English or French?

Same request for BC. Fortunately Chrome on my tablet translates the site automatically. Deal is on until June 2 and they have two other colours available.

The price includes the Dutch Value Added Tax of 21%, so hopefully our price would be even lower.

I continue to highly recommend Roadkit.com...the customer service is outstanding and Peter is a pleasure to talk to.

Today picked up the R. Shell, L1 pinstripe X short sleeve and L1 pinstripe X long sleeve.

I've recently ordered a few items from Roadkit and my experience has been the same. However, if you give me the chance to get a pair of Dottore bibs for approx. $100 less elsewhere...

Agreed :)

Too bad futurumshop don't ship to Canada...would have definitely grabbed a pair too.

How well does the R.Shell jacket fit into a jersey pocket? I don't have a decent (non flappy) jacket that I might not wear for the entire ride, nor do I have a rain jacket (I live in a semi arid region) so thought I might combine the two.

Edit: Given that I rarely get caught in the rain, I'm thinking that the Air Shell would be more practical.

Hmm I'm not sure. Let me try to stuff it in tomorrow to see.

Same as you I wanted something for the very rare occasion that I might get caught in the rain.

It fits in the jersey pocket easily (middle pocket is most comfortable) but I suspect air shell might fold down smaller.

I folded it in a thin roll style which seems to work best to make it fit in the jersey but some of it sticks out with this method of rolling. I think it's too bulky to have it disappear in a small ball in the jersey pocket.

Thanks for the info. I think being packable is more important to me than being waterproof. I ended up ordering the 7Mesh Cypress Hybrid jacket directly from 7Mesh. Last year's model is 25% off and a free return label is included. Since I'm in between sizes with 7Mesh as I am with Q36.5, I ordered both sizes and will keep the one that suits my needs better.

Nothing scientific, but it definitely seems like I have greater "bib-tanlines" after riding in the Q36.5 jerseys than any others I own.
Well...if your tanlines are more pronounced, I would argue it blocks sun more than others, no? :wink:

Guys do you please have any experience with the customer service of Q36.5 themselves?

One year ago I was in touch with Manuel and they made me a custom gilet, everything was perfect. But now it is a 3rd consecutive email from 19/4, 22/4 and 14/5 and no reply what so ever. I find this quite strange, more so that I was interested in several items that I would like to buy and I am asking about availaibility..
Is it just me? :noidea:

Thanks
