those scott helium waterproof shorts are supposed to be the business.

shame I just bought some gore ones.

accroding to review on Bike Radar they are long in the toebox!

🙁 anyone else tried scott shoes fit? I’m normally 47 but according to shimano lately I’m a 48. Is it just shimano who are skimping on shoe sizes?

I’m 48 in pretty much every bike shoes I’ve had including Shimano and Spesh.

I bought 44 in Shimano and ended up 44 in Northwave too but am 43 in normal shoes.
The NW shoes are quite a jump between sizes as the 43 was squashin my toes but the replacement 44 feels huge unless I wear substantial socks.
All the reviews of Shimano shoes I read and my LBS say to up a size from your normal.
EDIT just remembered am 43 in spesh shoes.

There’s a size guide on the Scott website. According to that I ordered a medium, i’m around a 36″ chest, normally wear a small in t-shirts.

I’m same whippety size as you and my Scott gilet and SS roadie jersey are both small and both a snug roadie fit.

Will have to wait and see then, will likely be a bit big, might be ok fit for MTB.

Thanks OP. I just bagged a Scott Helium Gilet …got a further 5% discount with coupon code “cloud5” also …so got it for the very reasonable price of £23.70! @kimbers ..there is a review of it on BikeRadar and they reckoned the fit was “easy” http://www.bikeradar.com/gear/category/clothing/gilets-and-vests/product/review-scott-helium-gilet-11-45462/

Just checked my order, I did order a small in a jacket and gilet. Ordered a medium bib as I’m 6′.

Should be ok then!

got a further 5% discount with coupon code “cloud5”

on top of the 10% for TRIATHLETE10, ie. you can stack codes?

I tried it earlier, I don’t think you can stack the codes, it only applied the last one I entered unfortunately..

Cheers JoeyD, ordered some gloves for £7 using the codes on p3 <<<. Amazed they have medium sizes at that price 🙂

No probs, glad to have helped!

There’s some cheap Deore Chainsets at Ribble at the mo..

10 speed Deore double inc BB for £46.95
10 speed Deore triple inc BB for £46.95

Usually £90, Chain Reaction / Merlin etc seem to have them for around £60

Been that price for at least a month. Ribble recently had 10% off shimano too. It is cheap then the competition though

Thanks JD. Bagged a couple of sets of 3do gloves at £13.50 each with the coupon code.

Cheers, just ordered gloves, helmet and baggy shorts c£50, can’t complain 🙂

Scott Shoes have arrived, bought my normal S43 and they fit well if anything they might be a tad long but no complaints.

Got my D3O gloves through and they are top quality nicely finished kit and a total bargain for £13.50, leagues better than Fox stuff that cost me 30 quid (hopefully will last longer too).

Thanks. Gloves, gilet and jersey ordered!

£13.50 for the gloves is great.. just ordered a cheeky wee pair as my tlds are getting a bit skanky..
cheers JD for all the PSAs. Its appreciated.

Scott stuff all turned up yesterday and all fits perfectly. £5 gloves are great (for £5!).
Gonna browse the site again, see if I can find something else!

Abigale was modelling her new gear last night. Bargain

brother got his scott order yesterday and my mate got his today, still waiting on mine, as expected

Just had to order another pair of these:

They are sooooo comfortable!

well my scott gloves turned up, nice!

and very pleased with the gillet- very nice bit of kit, went for a medium which fits snug on my ripped muscualr torso 😉

Yup,very pleased with the gillet,I think it’s going to be a handy bit of kit.

Seven pairs of £7.20 gloves should see me right

Pair of £5 fingerless gloves for summer commuting just arrived. 2xl size is a great fit.
Really like the £5 full finger ones I’ve just been for a ride in too 🙂

The gillet could well become my favourite piece of MTb kit, absolutely brilliant for £23
Gloves are nice too
