Like my existing one it is maybe somewhat long in the arms
Thanks again.

I usually have the opposite problem. The arms are usually too short.

I remember when I was trying on jerseys in a shop a while ago and there was this really expensive one, very nice quality but I swear the xl must have been for a 4 year old child or something I couldn't even get the jersey over my head

Not Italian by any chance? I'm no porker, wasn't even before my weight loss, but I have an Italian top which is XXL or something. So you need to be ultra careful with online purchases of some Italian stuff. Luckily I bought mine in Italy in a shop. Strange thing is I well remember the Italian shop guy wondering if it was too big for me when it clearly wasn't in the real-world fit. The marketing psychology behind this Italian sizing escapes me - don't folk like to be thought thinner if anything?
PS @Spiderweb bought one, many thanks. Maybe don't uber strictly need but bought it with some of my paypal balance earned through selling unwanted stuff/previous inappropriate buys. So free innit?

Often wondered, when offers like these come up, how long do zero tabs (which i'm a great fan of for longer rides) last? Fair to assume that an unopened tube of them will last virtually forever?

I popped in after going to the Spin exhibition.

Interesting. I considered the rain jacket but then thought better of it. The forward facing flaps (weather seal is effectively under them so not saying it would leak) struck me as odd on something that's going to be facing frontal water. Was disappointed to find that their very definitely premium priced items appear to be mostly made in china.

Thought the reduced price was even a bit inflated, at the RRP an absolute joke. Didn't get a feel it was particularly good quality material, and that combined with being manufactured in China as well as well as mundane designs, complete rip off

Bit harsh. I own a few bits from Vulpine and every one is excellent quality . The rain jacket in particular is a thing of beauty. I have had one for a couple of years and it still looks brand new. You get what you pay for.

Is it better than other big brands like Specialized or Gore or Sportful etc was the point I was getting at, all those brands always have a few items or old stock on massive discounts at the big online retailers so you can pick your size without worrying about getting to a shop so early so that all the S sizes don't go in a snap.

The top end kit from the brands you mention are as good IMO and around the same price at full RRP, so I'm not quite sure what you're getting at TBH.
