Ok, didn't hear back from my email yesterday (or as a result of posting here) so I am afraid you have missed out on adding your order. I may still have some extras in more common sizes but can't do these at the original prices.. kind of an advantage for everyone who got in early.

Cheers

Regarding late orders - there are no bib knicks and for the jerseys only a few of the more common sizes and available for $110 - I will do it first come (and paid) first serve.
There are plenty of extra L and XL BNA socks at $25, I had to order extra to fulfill the min. order quota on socks, and there are also BNA caps at $25.

--

For everyone who has ordered, I am including the final designs, the only change as mentioned recently is the BNA on the sleeves / shoulders has been turned 180 degrees - based on feedback from the supplier this is better as it will look like it is 'the right way up' - in the position, particularly when BNA riders are racing to the finish-line - it works better






And a status, the kit officially is signed off and sent to production today. We still have the wait however means we will be good to go for the 2012/2013 season.

Awesome. So what's the ETA?

8 weeks for production of the kit, though the socks are 8-12 weeks though I am using friendly encouragement to see if our supplier can get the factory to take special care of us.

Sooner is nicer, but I find that if a quality result means a longer wait, I am prepared to wait. I have however tried to keep it sensible and so once the rain stops and it warms up (and Cadel takes his second TDF victory) we will be good to go for the cycling season in Australia.

I'm positive I will go faster in my BNA kit

You will. Stripes have been scientifically proven to give you a 15% increase in performance.
(imagine what would have happened if I had of put more stripes in in).

exactly the reason i went with the black for racing lol

The order has gone to plan and the supplier is also crossing their fingers that we will be on time.

Due to non payment from one person, I have two kits that are up for grabs to the first takers.
When possible, as kits and will do the 'special deal' of $198 if you purchase a kit.
(will try first to offer the kit - and later break it up, first come first serve so also let me either way if a kit or part work best)

Jersey Corsa (Black) - Mens XXL
Bib Knicks size XL
BNA Socks size M - shoe 6-8

Jersey Strada (Blue) - Mens XXL
Bib Knicks size XL
BNA Socks size M - shoe 6-8

when is the expected delivery date?

Early to Mid August I think it was said.

8 weeks was the estimated production time from our order and allow some delivery time.
As a note, the socks have a 12 week production time and our supplier is seeing what they can do... so everyone, fingers crossed

All good - pm contact with RichardH on an order question.

I am requesting a status update from the supplier to see if we can get an ETA so we know when the gear is due and will share details when I hear back.

Ok, the supplier (Tineli) must be watching the mens olympic road race as well while bing online.

Kit is due to be delivered in about a week. So allow a bit more time for it to then be sent on to each person. Great news huh!

LIKE (since there is no like button) lol

A general like button on the top right... go on, click it.

From my side now the second payment has been made so we are almost there.

It's here.
I have sent an email to all to confirm delivery address so that I get your gear to exactly where you want it sent.

Chris D. your email is broken and I would prefer to confirm your address, so please email me.

I have plenty of extra socks.. I won't claim they are cheap at $25 each but will claim that they are limited edition custom bling bling socks.

Two kits still available (as above) and first after all kits that are ordered have been sent out will I see if I have a jersey and knicks (or two) extra however no longer at discounted prices. But first in first served.

Back to packing all the kits for everyone!

They look great!
