Rapha Sale – Clicky link

Damn you.

phew.. savings were about the same as the discount for doing the survey

for anyone who isn’t familiar, this is the first round of reductions, heftier ones up to 50% will come soon,

if you buy something now, and its further reduced and your size is available, a quick email should get you the difference refunded

From my experience sizes will be limited when further reduction are introduced. Website down just now anyway.

Website is already crashing

I’m off to make some quinoa and a kopi luwak coffee, I’ll check back later

Cheap hipsters are fapping all over the place…. When I did get a glimpse the search by size thing was a great idea.

Oh FFS, I can already feel my credit card twitching just looking at the title of this post.

Unusually, there’s some Classic gear in the sale…

Never owned any Rapha, I could do with a new jersey, so if there’s something nice that may change 😀

If I can get on the site!

I sent my Med data Print jersey back the other day if you are interested in it..
😆

Do i really need purple randonnee shorts?

I just got the pro team long in green and the to the sun bundle, from the last discount 🙂 nice stuff, just need to lose the dam roadie cap from the bundle unless I find a bad fancy dress party.

They haven’t got what I want in my size

Thank goodness for that 😆

No winter/softshell jacket no care.

^ I have a Lgr Grey used once in my wardrobe FS 😉

Can you shrink it down to a small?

Sure, boil it 😆

I have a medium I fooled myself into thinking would fit. Should have got a large.

What size jersey should I get for someone who is 6ft and fairly slim build? M?

I’m 6′ and 75kg, and wear a medium in most things Rapha. I can squeeze into a small, but it’s completely skin tight. The cut on most items is sufficient to allow for a larger size without being baggy.

amazingly they give you some king of idea

…a medium what?

Thanks Daffy. Mike, I checked the sizing but it’s for a surprise and I don’t know what his measurements are.

The sizing if “fitted” and fairly spot on, as a double check I got the sizing guide from a different jersey I owned.

…a medium what?

Winter jersey.
I’m 6′ & would go large next time.

slight Hijack, but I bought one of these Rapha hoodies last time round and while I’ve worn it twice (not on bike) it is too big same as this

I keep meaning to put it on classifieds, email in profile if anyone wants it

Thanks 🙂

Those wind proof Merino hoodies are great on the bike in winter too. I bought mine from the Rapha eBay sale account for £31 and love it. They are a slightly more relaxed fit than Rapha cycling kit.

^^^ Yeah, I had hoped for that too, but thought the sizing would be very Italian, but as you say it’s a bit more relaxed, in my case too much so for wearing on the bike.

Hi Iain, I have mailed you re hoodie

Tempting as it is, today’s road bike rear derailleur implosion, and fallout damage to wheel and cassette, means there are other calls on my wallet.

I do not know how it happened…….

I’ve been assured that the prices are nowhere near comparable to the archive store. Archive store is considerably ‘cheaper’ apparently. 🙂

but thought the sizing would be very Italian, but as you say it’s a bit more relaxed, in my case too much so for wearing on the bike.

Rapha sizing can be quite variable. The more race orientated gear (Pro Team for men’s range, Souplesse for women’s range) is very aero, race fit and you often need to go up a size.

The casual stuff is more normal sized but it can still be a bit different between jackets, jerseys and shirts.

They also appear to be doing free postage, rather than a fiver for baskets under 100 quid.

Which is a result when I fancied a Club Jersey and a £10 voucher (from a previous price-reduction refund) 😀

Prices would appear to have dropped again. On the same day that my order was delivered – balls.

“Prices would appear to have dropped again. On the same day that my order was delivered – balls. “

Phone them up, if your item is still in stock at the lower price they will refund you.

as said above, email em and they’ll either refund or credit note the difference. Munqe Chick had a credit note code for something she’d bought about 2 months earlier and was then put in a sale…

Yeh drop them an email or give them a call. Rapha customer service is outstanding and you’ll either get a x% off code or a voucher for the difference.

” you’ll either get a x% off code or a voucher for the difference. “

Or a straight refund which is what I got.

Yep, email was replied to almost instantly with a credit note. Can’t fault that.
