[Closed] PSA: Belkin Team Kit

Cheers, I've attempted to order a pair of small bib shorts with the promo code. I would have ordered more but am unsure of the fit, and don't really do team kit. At this price it would be rude not to though.

Great PSA! Thanks!

I started ordering thinking the shorts and top for £30 posted would be alright for time on the turbo.... but actually the more I look at it the more I like it. Might even be seen out in public wearing it 😳

Finally confirmed.

Cheers OP mine confirmed as well

Not bothered what it looks like tbh as it was purchase based on price
IMHO all cycling kit [ esp roadie and downhill gear] has the twin evils of being phenomenally overpriced and looking gash

This will be seen in public

Confirmation e-mail received. Now to wait and see if they're as snug as I fear they will be...

Yeah - I went XXL, figuring I can always shorten the shoulder straps if required.

Order confirmed this morning - 1 set of bibs with the cheeky delivery scam.

😥

Still waiting for my confirmation. Got a 'submitted' email but nothing since.

😥

Order confirmed for me too this morning. A pair of bib shorts and a shirt using delivery scam. Xl. Hope it fits or I'll be posting again.

mine arrived today...2013 team top, bought 2 for a fiver each. They arent the santani ones so if anything a tad to big, but perfect for wearing over a base layer.

Arrived here and looks good. Went up a size or 2 so XXL top and bottom. Bib shorts pretty perfect fit, top a little large and would have been okay in XL (& probably L at a stretch). Don't think I'll be wearing matching top and shorts at same time though (usually avoid team kit).

most things have gone now ... 🙁

Are the bibs Santini?

Decent quality?

yes bibs are Santini and look good quality (nice yellow pad) and decent thickness material. The top (the 9.99 one) is a bit thin / lightweight and will have to wait for real sunny days (or turbo in the freezing garage)

Good news, cheers mate.

🙂

My bibs just have arrived - very nice and kind of wish I had ordered more that one set as are a perfect fit (size large - 181cm and 70kg)

So am I. Ordered pretty sharpish & I got my 'we've received your order' e-mail within a few minutes. But, nothing since then.

Waiting for the 'out of stock' e-mail now!

Same price on their eBay site now with free shipping - I've not had my original order confirmation yet, so figured I may as well get another pair of shorts through eBay just in case. No XL jerseys left though...

Thanks Sheriff - just bought some bibs - for under baggies you understand....

thanks for psa Will
arrived today .Bibs good fit and well made

I rang up Belkin 08444 77 7787 (think it's opt 3 for orders placed) and spoke to someone in the US, seems it caused a problem inputting a different address for delivery but after checking the details were correct they've put it through now, still waiting for a confirmation email though!

Woooohoooo! Confirmation received. I can has Belkin kit!

I rang up Belkin 08444 77 7787 (think it's opt 3 for orders placed) and spoke to someone in the US, seems it caused a problem inputting a different address for delivery but after checking the details were correct they've put it through now, still waiting for a confirmation email though

I got my order submitted email, but no more. So rang them and also got through to the US. Took a while to find my order but she said there is no stock of the shorts and Jersey and no notification about when they are gonna be back in stock.

Bit peeved. I said I thought they were end of line stuff so probably wouldn't be any more of them and she said she didn't know if that is the case or not, but I could cancel if I wanted.
I said I'd wait a bit, but don't hold out any hope.

Annoyed as could have bought through the eBay store, but waited until speaking to someone and now the size I wanted has gone from the ebay page.

Bibs arrived, splendid quality for £15 delivered. Very pleased, as "team" stuff goes it's not really that garish.

Should have bought a couple of pairs, but all sold out now.

Cheers OP.

Just picked mine up. Very nice too for the price. I reckon I'll venture out in public in it quite like it. Fit is true to the size guide IMO. Medium too is slightly bigger than I'd like and I'm a 39 chest. Med bibs fit great at 32 waist

Got a confirmation phonecall today and email after that!

Just tried mine on. Passed the wife and daughter test. OP - Fantastic thread. Super Quality and fantastic fit. My large are great for 32" waist and 5'11"

Bibs arrived today, so good i've just ordered another pair from their ebay store 🙂

Got a confirmation mail for my jersey. Looking fwd to getting it.

Many thanks OP. May the biking gods shine on you with good biking karma.

Just bought a long sleeved Jersey from their ebay store for £29.99 not such an awesome bargin, but worth it for the quality.

Any other teams selling kit off cheap?? I could do with some tights...

If anyone gets any large bibs that dont fit give me a shout. Brilliant bargain.

Got two large bibs and two large 2013 Jersey's that don't fit if anyone's interested (have XL's on route), based Reading/Basingstoke way.

Glad they're all arriving now. I saw my first pair of bibs of the road this morning 😉

Wore my bibs this morning very pleased. They were however covered by tights...so it wasn't me you saw!

This thread needs a photo follow-up. See who looks most tragic in the full pro kit - my money is firmly on Myself.

@Silentsparky any idea If the Large bibs would fit a 34" waist .?

Yes they will - fit my 32" easily.

Cheers Wally , I'll mail silentspark.

Bibs are sized by height not waist measurement - L = 178-182cm

Bit nervous about my medium jersey. From the comments on here, maybe a large would have been better. It is going to be for road riding and I like the spray on lycra look but only if I can still breath.

Stanfree, yep waist wise they should be fine I'm 34" waist but its the height that's done me. I'll email you back in a min...

Hmmm, ordered Medium on waist size but 182 height..

My Meds are fine. I'm 32" waist 5'11"... Quite tight but I like it that way. Medium Jersey is ok, I'd like it a bit tighter (39" chest)

Well, if anyone has got mediums (Jersey and bib shorts) that don't fit, I might be interested...

Okay, I'll join in the clothing market.
My order appears to have vanished into the aether, so anyone with any L shorts or M jerseys please drop me an email!
Cheers!!

Everything is now on their ebay page.

drop me an email if anyone has an XL top (the 9.99 one) and wants to swap for a larger XXL. I upsized a little too much.

Got my top and shorts as below, a little too small for me, I would say they are like XL
So if anyone wants them for £32, which is what I paid, please let me know before I send them back
They are both in santini bags, with the holograms on both garments

Got mine too so cheers OP.

Bibs seem reasonable quality - mid range rather than top end I'd guess.

5 quid Jersey is a really good fit and nice thin fabric.

🙂

Got mine today, it's great stuff, top and bottoms both Santini and better than my other cheap roadie clothing.

Nothing here yet. Order confirmed but that's it.

Were they delivered by the postie or a courier?

DHL

ok thanks....postie has been do there is still hope for today (tho' tomorrow would do really....)

DHL tracking must be off a bit (bearing i'm in southampton):

birmingham
east midlands
heathrow
southampton
heathrow (again?)
southampton

Mine too! DHL not having a good day.

I'm going to slip into my new bibs now and head out for a spin for a couple of hours.

If I see a lost-looking DHL geezer I'll point him your way.

My tracking number doesn't even work!

I'll try again

DHL delivered mine on Sunday!

Did you get an email once it's shipped with the tracking info?

I've had a 'submitted' and 'confirmed' email but nothing with tracking #

I got 2 emails, one confirming submission and a second one saying it will be 'shipping soon'. That was 4 days ago!

Same as me, 'shipping soon' was in the confirmed email

I bet you I miss out and they decided they'd sell it to someone else ;o)

Also in the order confirmed x 2

thankfully they make it so easy to contact them though to discuss

I assume we lucked out

Keeping my fingers crossed.

Any porkers finding their medium top a little tight and wants to swap it for my large (the £4.99 one) please let me know.

Bit miffed.

Got the email saying that the order was confirmed but nothing since.

I have just called the UK customer services but was then diverted to another number where an American girl insisted on taking all my details, name address, phone number etc in a VERY slow manner. I was then told that i would have to go on hold for a while...

Eventually i was told that I was on back order which meant that there were no more items available - ie they had no stock to fullfil my order. Its particularly annoying because I advised my mates of this deal the day after i ordered - and they have already got theirs!

Oh, and to compound matters, without my phone call (which probably cost a fortune) they wouldnt have started the refund procedure. The good news is that the money should be refunded to my credit card within 17 days.

😥

w4nkers

I will have to call them then too, I ordered last wednesday and got the two confirmation emails but no shipping email and they've not turned up yet. Not the best service if these don't turn up

Hmm... my order has been 'In Process' since 7am on the 22nd.

Still no confirmation for me 😡

I have got grumpy on Twitter @Belkincares

At least we are opening up lines of communication. I suggest you take to Twitter too. They promise to ring me today some time. I'll keep you abreast of progress.

Mine seems to have vanished as well, though I did only get the initial order placed and then no confirmation or shipping. On the plus side my card hasn't been charged, so I've just given up on it.
Don't bother trying to email them through the contact details on the site though as that only goes to technical support so you'll just get a snotty email back saying to phone Customer services (no doubt at exorbitant cost). Bit shoddy that an on-line retailer then has no way to contact their sales department electronically...

I think we melted their system down.

Yeah. I've still got nothing after ordering almost a week ago.
I rang them on Friday as I mentioned previously and got put through to sales in the US.
The woman I spoke to found my order, but said 2 of the items were out of stock (the shorts and the jersey) and there was no indication of when they would be back in stock again.
I suggested that they are probably end of line items so unlikely to be back in stock, to which she replied that she couldn't say for sure if that was the case but I could cancel the order if I wanted.
However, the window sticker that I added to the order to get free p&p was in stock and she could get that shipped if I wanted 😆 ....

I got an item dispatched email / tracking number this morning so if you havent heard anything yet then you might still be ok.

Toddles off to check e-mail..... 🙁 ....nothing...nada....zip.....

...2 of the items were out of stock (the shorts and the jersey) and there was no indication of when they would be back in stock again.

probably when some stw porkers make their returns after trying to squeeze their pie enhanced bodies into race fit lycra and deciding it's not gonna happen 😆

What sizes did you get Omar? More than a little bit miffed because I spoke to Belkin US on Friday and the lady said it was all confirmed and in stock...

I have a jersey (£9.99) and bibshorts (£14.99) in large, and a jersey (£9.99) in extra-large available if anyone wants? Costs plus postage if interested...

The good news is that the money should be refunded to my credit card within 17 days.

6. When will my credit card be charged?

Items are charged on your credit card when they are shipped.

Any consumer advice on this one then of they breach their own terms?

My card shows pending transactions and Belkin is pending. Since Wednesday.

My bibs just turned up - vey nice, but glad I ordered a XXL!! I'm normally L/XL.
