    What are the best clothes for cycle courierisationment?
  1.  
    Rapha, of course!




    (joking!)

    Whatever you can afford, and feel comfortable in. For me, that meant something with chammy (synthetic), lycra fleece, and then merino wool tops. But that's just me - some people never ever wear lycra.

    Merino wool tops sound better than cotton t-shirts, what arse the cheapest? Endura Halcyon?

    Natural fabrics all the way. Not into this gore tex sprayway naff naff nonsense. Have some dignity. wear a nice suit and get flourescent cycling clips.

    pinstripe suit + padded shorts ftw!

    i really fancied some of the howies ventile stuff but couldn't justify or afford £350 on waterproofs. dickies are pretty good in the wet-they dry surprisingly quickly.

    padded shorts! not matter what you wear over them will save your "gouche" life.

    i personally like base layers under a tshirt and shorts no matter what the weather....makes me feel all nimble like;p

    Cotton isn't great - I like merino cos it's soft to wear against your skin, and you can wear it for days before it gets even the slightest bit niffy.

    Dunno what's the cheapest - I use my old, worn out swobo jerseys.
