I am noticing an absurd price premium on some of these brands - I might do up something showing the price of bib-knicks/jersey/kit for each, if I can be bothered.Le Mong wrote:Attaquer decided this year to bump their kits up by aprox $100 a set. Was disappointed.

Hmmm, looks like I can no longer edit the first post. Chris @AUbicycles, can you help?
I was going to add Pedal Mafia tp the list.

Draft and format a replacement opening post and PM it to any supermod on deck with a link to this thread and it'll get done pretty quickly.nezumi wrote: Hmmm, looks like I can no longer edit the first post. Chris @AUbicycles, can you help?

That's the thing - most of them are hard to find purely by searching - it really seems to be word of mouth that drives their patronage, which can only be a good thing in terms of design quality - whether that translates to material/workmanship quality remains to be seen.slowK wrote:Great idea for a thread. I've been looking for a new jersey, but have failed to find about 80% of the sites you have listed!

Instagram is where most of us are getting our kits out on. Some are focusing on design, while others are focusing on performance. Its awesome to see so many Aus Kit companies getting out there.

Pedal mafia kit is awesome value. The most comfortable chamois of any of my kits hands down. Jay has always looked after me and express posts everything. As a bonus they are made in Australia without the wanky price tag to matchnezumi wrote:I am noticing an absurd price premium on some of these brands - I might do up something showing the price of bib-knicks/jersey/kit for each, if I can be bothered.Le Mong wrote:Attaquer decided this year to bump their kits up by aprox $100 a set.

Having had my keys come out on of a back pocket while descending, I am now very conscious of this.

Ground Effect is well known and very functional (rather than being about jersey design / style) alone. They are New Zealand, but make locally which is a bonus and I can highly recommend. They have larger production volumes so may not make the cut as a limited edition kit.

Also liked the Horton Collection jerseys from Retro Image Apparel but their sizing was insane, very small. They seem to have gone now.
