The chamois creme is some marvelous goop.

Ride 'n Style in Cottesloe might stock them ... they have a good range of clothing and reasonable prices.

Hmmm, yes I pondered this route but I would prefer to try clothing on and know it fits than have a guess. Did you buy bibs, how is their sizing chart?ajh_ausnzcf wrote:I haven't found one so I ordered direct online.

Thanks for letting us know about this place Andrew, I was going by the area today so dropped in. Great range and as you said reasonably priced. Picked myself up a nice new jersey. Never knew about the place before but will be sure to drop in there again down the track.Aushiker wrote:G'day

Nope, no bibs yet, I normally take small sizing and with Assoss I'm the smaller small size. If you really want to buy the good stuff they will send out an article based on your measurements, you can then try it on. If you have a fit problem you can send it back for closer fit size as long as you don't spoil the garment. Just ask them first, they are quite generous getting the correct fitting garment and at minimum $250 a pop for bibs it's good to have that. Stuff is sent out express mail, you'll have it next day.senator52 wrote:Hmmm, yes I pondered this route but I would prefer to try clothing on and know it fits than have a guess.

I asked them about the '09 aerochrono skin suit, they said they had one in black and one in white, both a medium, and they suggested I come in and try it on*, when I told them I'm from Perth, and I'd be happy to buy it, try it on, but have the option to return at my cost after trying it on, and wait for a small to arrive if it doesn't fit me, I got no reply.
Plus it took about a week for someone to initially tell me they don't have any. I replied in a day. A week later someone told me they actually did get in two, I replied in a day saying my height/weight/will it fit?. A week later they sent me the first email I mentioned. So I'm glad some people are getting some good service from Assos
*does no one realise that @student.uwa.edu.au is a UWA email account? The amount of shops saying "you're very welcome to drop by the store and check it out" is astounding.

Probably best to call them using the telephone. They might have hundreds of email queries everyday. Nothing but top notch service for me.Ant. wrote: Interesting.

Not a Perth dealer but Competitive Cyclist (US) have Assos gear on special. Don't know how the pricing compares but.
