Losing weight is great until your old clothes don't fit any more :( hence I am selling my great Frank Thomas Ace Leather Jacket I bought quite recently (less than 9 months ago) from J&S for £179. I bought the jacket as my first leather one as it is a nice clean design without any massive logos on and doesnt really look out of place on any bike.

You can find more out at http://www.frank-thomas.co.uk/cgi-bin/ft_spec.pl?id=2.Ace%20Leather%20Jacket but note mine is the newer design with embossed Frank Thomas logo not white. There is armor at shoulders and elbows + a space for a back protector.

Size 44, I can wear this jacket with an inserted back protector (not included in the sale but shown in pictures) and a fleece. There is some really really light marks on elbows where I've brushed against the walls in/outside my flat. The jacket is starting to wear in nicely and the leather has lost some of the stiffness and feels really nice, if you are slightly larger than me :-)

Looking for ~£130, but delivery will be extra. I'm in Birmingham and can meet up if you want.

Thanks a lot, please take my lovely jacket off my hands!

Ok I've been wearing this for a while but the size is just getting a bit nuts, I'll take £60 for it or £80 with the back protector. The jacket has a few more scuffs where it has been rubbing on the tank at the front at the bottom.

I'd say its more like a 45 now as it seems to have stretched but I just can't wear it as it's too loose. For info, I just bought a 42 RST Rift jacket which is v tight but fits like a glove. The back protector in this Frank Thomas is a pretty large Forcefield one, much better than the tiny knox one in my new RST jacket. I could sell this on its own for £25 inc p&p.

p&p for jacket and back protector together will be £10 or you can pick it up from Birmingham uni during the day for £0 p&p!

Thanks for looking!

p.s. how can I edit the thread title now?
