Assos

Very happy to get an Assos jersey at a great price. Can't comment yet on long term durability, but seems well made. Will have to wait until summer to see how it performs in hot, humid conditions.

Apparently, Assos cuts its jerseys to fit comfortable when you're in the road bike tuck. That's ok, but it's cut so terribly tight that if you try to stand up straight in it, it'll feel too small

Its important to look good while cycling.

Assos= AWESOME!!!!

Jersey fits tighter than most jerseys (i.e. PI, Performance Bike brand) in Medium. Stay cool, dry quickly and very comfortable given the tight fit. Looks great as well... I also expected the zipper to hug the body a little more in riding position but no big deal for me once I ride... Pockets are nicely reenforced with one hole on right pocket for iPod... (for those that care). Is it worth the money? That's for each to decide but for me, I'm buying more Assos' products... but not from Sierra Trading Post (see more comments below).I gave Sierra Trading Post a ZERO rating because I just saw the same item on their sites and other sites for $30 less and they would not credit me for the price change. I just bought the item about two weeks ago !!! I don't think I have came across another retailer on-line that would not credit the difference... this is probably my last order with Sierra Trading Post...

For the woman who wrote about the delicate wash try this: Put the jersey in a pillow case and safety pin it closed, wash regular, hang the jersey to dry. I've been wearing Assos clothing for years and do this every time I've worn mine. They wear like iron and I've had the jersey's and bib shorts for years and many cycling seasons. These are pricey but worth every penny.

Assos is highly regarded for their fit and fabrics, and this meets expectations in those regards however I was disappointed in the quality of the zipper. It snagged more than it should have for clothing of this quality so I chose to return the product. It's still a nice jersey, but for the price it needed to be a "5 out of 5" for me to keep it. Personally, I wouldn't use the cycling cap, but the pricing for the kit is still competitive. This fits "true to size", but this is relative to other European brand sizing. I normally would wear a medium in most US-brand sizing and an Assos large was still snug, but appropriate.

Buy one size larger than you normally buy. The woman who bought for her husband and was disappointed that it is a hand wash or delicate care garment follow these directions. Place the jersey and socks in a pillow case and safety pin the bag shut. Wash on regular cycle and hang to dry. I've been doing this to my Assos bibs, jerseys and socks for years. I've worn Assos for 7 plus years and this works perfectly. This is a great deal for some of the best cycling gear out on the market today.

Good product. The clamp-on handlebar adjustment is nice, you can easily adjust the tension. I did not like that you have to replace your rear wheel skewer with the one they provide. I have used other trainers that had a lug that adapted to most skewers. Feels stable under my 220 lbs. Other than that I like it. It folds for compact storage too.

I bought this for my husband and he says he loves it. However, when reading all the details after ordering...it needs delicate wash. It also has a very snug fit.
