"The first pair of castelli bottoms I've owned, I normally wear Assos but have found the pads to be too thick on them, really impressed with these, I'll be buying castelli in the future."

"I've always used these so don't have much to compare them against, I bought a spare as they were on offer, I normally fit them with a quick link, monitor the wear and change them when required"

"So far so good, I switched from ultremo zx's to these after too many punctures, these roll as well as the ultremo's but I feel they offer a bit more in the corners."

"I had schwalbe tyres on my bike from new and upgraded to these as I was very happy with the brand, these have been great tyres and I have plenty of confidence in them, I managed to pick up a few cuts riding over sharp stones but not punctures yet, when purchased they were discounted and I'm very happy with them."

dhb Long Sleeve Momentum Jersey
Super soft, ultra warm, there will be no stopping the momentum! Mid-weight slim fitting, fully featured cycling jersey.
This or Windslam Robaix for winter?
Looking for a winter jacket/jersey for cycling in London and I don't know whether to go for this or the dhb Long Sleeve Windslam Roubaix? It sounds that this jacket is warm but it's doesn't claim to block the wind like the Windslam and in my experience it's the icy wind in Winter that really leads to cold limbs.
Hence I'm leaning toward the Windslam Roubaix but want to double-check my assumptions?
Hence I'm leaning toward the Windslam Roubaix but want to double-check my assumptions?
I bought one of these, but now wish I had gone for the wind slam, this will be fine on milder days but on a cold descent or with a cool breeze it goes right through this. But saying that its still a great top and plenty warm enough for most rides.
