Turbo Club - Meet Ups / Events

OK, here's the definitive info on sizing - thankfully I think I did post the right size chart previously!

THIS is the "to fit" guide (but bear in mind it's a "Slim fit" so if unsure go a size up):

And THIS is the actual garment size - so you might want to compare against a jersey you already have:

If this changes anyone's size choice, please update the last list and re-post it.

 

[bridgy]

The cost of each jersey is £37 + £30 postage which we can split between the 15 of us, so that makes it £39 each.

In addition if you want me to post you the jersey, you'll have to add postage costs to this based on this price guide - https://www.royalmail.com/sites/default/files/Our-prices-2018-effective-26-March-2018.pdf

I've weighed one of my jerseys and it's just under 250grams, and it will be classed as a "small parcel" due to the size, so based on that, standard second class delivery would be £2.95 - but obviously if you want it sent guaranteed of 1st class etc you'll have to let me know and add the appropriate postage cost.

Can everyone who wants one please PM me a message confirming size, name on back, and how they want it posted and I will PM you back my bank details so you can transfer the money.

Here's the list so far - please double check the sizing in my post above before confirming your order via PM:

Right, I am looking into this and I am still a bit confused by the sizing based on what they've sent me! There is a "Classic Fit" and a "Slim Fit" and what has confused me is there's two different size charts for each fit - which have different chest sizes! I think I've given you all "Classic fit" sizes when it would be better to go for "slim Fit". I know a classic fit would probably suit some people better, but we can only order one size type. And I think the "slim fit" is going to be more like the normal road cycling jersey fit and sizing we're used to.

Apologies for the confusion - before I post any more sizing info I have sent them an email to get clarification and will update when I am sure I know what I'm talking about!

I will get to the bottom of this today and get things finalised!

Normally when a clothing company offers classic and slim fit, the former is a more relaxed cut and the slim fit is a more racing cut, meaning the racing cut normally needs you to go up one size. I'm guessing from what you've said this is the most likely case here.

I've got both types of top. Don't mind what we go for, but it does depend on build and its going to be important to make suer we're using the right sizing chart.

I think the front body length is a bit long most of mine r around 54cm where this is saying the large is 67 cm that even too long for tt but the back seams right at 72cm so ill stick with the large

Well I'm pretty easily confused but it doesn't help when there's two no. 3's and I'm wondering why I'm getting 16 in total when there's only 15 in that list!!
