I like the Helly Hansens, around £19 if you shop around

my Helly remains the best bit of kit i bought since I started riding other than my bike !. It regulates the heat and cold and gets the sweat away from your body.

This is the one I got. I am sure if you shop around you will be able to get it cheaper !

i agree helly hensons. but, they do stink if you don't wash after every ride at least 40 deg Celsius

I have dhb runcton long sleeve crew-neck which are good and currently on offer at wiggle.com for £10

I also have the dhb earnly zip-neck which are £22 but I also rate these.

Decathlon if there is one near you - about £7 for a long sleeved one. Although to be honest i bought merino last year and will not be going back - fabulous stuff but pricey. I have four of these bought in various sales and special offers http://tinyurl.com/n67zct

I have both these long sleeved Altura base layers which are good. They have an extended back to stop your lower back getting cold when you are lent forward on the bike.

I've ordered one of these, at only a tenner its worth a shot!! not lost much if its not very good or a bargain investment if its any good!! Fingers crossed it is good and i might order another couple!!

I picked up a descente top a while ago for under £20 from wiggle I think it was posted in the bargain section and its great for later in the year.

I agree.

I got some biblongs, a pair of socks and a long sleeve base layer for £25.

Most probably not going to be as comfortable/effective as some of the more high end stuff, but I'm a beginner with nothing else for comparison, so I think they're great!

+1 for Helly Hansens. Worth that little bit extra.

That said all my kit for commuting in I got from Aldi / Lidi.

Just go one set of quality kit for non commuting, non training type occassions.

The aldi compression base layer is good - left overs from earlier sale.
