Castelli is my first choice. But rapha is always great on color setting.
I don't know why people are so down on Rapha all the time, I love their kit, it is so well made; I bid on it on ebay whenever I can.
Agreed - thought it was a bit nobby before I actually tried some and now it’s my first choice. The pro shorts have the best pad I’ve tried and the pro-team aero jerseys have a really nice fit and feel.
Also agreed, yes its a stretch at times to pay the full price for the gear but it fits so well and the quality of its construction is second to none. I've got plenty of lower tier clothing (think DHB etc) which is fantastic and is my winter clothing of choice when its grubby outside, but they're not as comfy as the Rapha gear.
