Cycle Chat Kit - what's left

[Will1985]

Thanks to Jimmy The Whiskers for pointing me to the new posts in this thread.

I now have far too much on my plate to deal with another kit order but can advise whoever takes it on. I'll echo what Paul says about the demands of the task.

We did start discussing this a few months ago and decided that the next order should be a single design to simplify the ordering process.

I managed to keep the prices down by getting more than people ordered to keep Endura sweet with using 2 designs and 1 discount scale (that's why I still have some things spare) - costs have risen at all manufacturers so it may be difficult to compete on price with stuff you can buy in the shops. A different manufacturer may be the way forward, possibly not one based in Britain.

Cheers for that Will.

What's still available? The link in your sig isn't working.

Edit: s'ok, just saw ianrauk's post signposting the first post in the thread.

I would also be interested in some kit depending on price

[QUOTE 1694800, member: 45"]Yup, it's a labour-intensive job taking orders and payment, negotiating and agreeing design, then packing and shipping. We need a volunteer...[/quote]
if you still need a volunteer I am available and willing. I am in direct talks with a manufacturer in Bangkok and will be meeting the owner in the factory shortly. I have been wearing his kit and find quality better than what l have been getting from a UK supplier.
This is where we are at at the moment:-
They can produce everything on the list.
Sizing - British sizing up to 5XL. Willing to do extra long or short bodies
Material - poly microfibre or polymicrofibre Pique texture
Minimum order 10 pieces so if any interest can do FNRttC tops or other events

Prices will include shipping to UK

I too am not overly keen on white (says he looking at his white Trek 2.5!)
I was thinking of a very light powder blue to replace the white and trying to get the orange a bit more golden. The TAL logo will go and be replaced by a discreet hippo logo on rear of collar. I will welcome any other design ideas
Prices to UK will be £33 incl p&p for short sleeves and £35 for long sleeves Sizes will be up to 5XL.

Another product will be (if enough interesr) FNRttC tops that will incorporate the CC logo and bike with FNRttC and moon and stars graphic - body colour will possibly be graduated blue right to left from mid blue to dark with orange sleeves - any thoughts?

Please contact me if you have any queries either by pm on this site or via my website (address in signature)

If you do start taking orders Mr Hippo I would probably go for two short sleeved jerseys.

I am up for some new tops

Looks interesting mr_hippo and good luck. I will definitely be interested if there is another order.

Just for your info there is currently a Fridays club jersey for the FNRttC so it may be worth having a chat to dellzeqq about those.

 

[JohnTCC]

Please let me know how and when to order

 

[ianrauk]

Before any of these Jersey's go ahead and get printed I think it would be good manners to ask (if not already) for Admin and Dellzeqq's ok first.

 

[JohnTCC]

I assumed they were "official".... Sorry

Any news on these being ok'ed by admin as yet?
