Decided to treat myself this weekend so bought one of these
:- ![]() And some of these:- ![]() Initial thoughts are that the jacket is far too nice to use out on the bike... The fit is great (for me) as I seem to be an odd shape. I'm 6 foot 1 and am long in the body so sometimes struggle to get decent kit to fit me. I also have a berik 1 piece that I do love but can be a pain if only going out for a bimble or to a bike meet etc. This also doesn't have the race hump whereas my 1 piece does so should be better for dragging the mrs along too. The build quality is really good. Stitching is as it should be and it comes with a 24month guarantee should anything go amiss with them. The jacket was supposed to be £349.99 and the pants were supposed to be £274.99 but good old HG has a 20% sale this weekend ![]() Its going to be odd getting used to a 2 piece but I'll post up progress and wear and tear as time goes on. |

If you choose black, then the top & bottoms are going to be a close enough match for folk not to notice All you've got to do is make sure the top and bottoms have the same sized connecting zip. Thats if you can't find a bargain 2 piece on one of the many trade stands, because thats all the BMF is these days.
