I have an older version of this jacket and I love it. Good fit, nice coverage on the neck, and nice and snug at the cuffs. Windproofing is top notch, with good ventilation elsewhere so you don't overheat. I can wear this down in the lower 30's with just a sleeveless base layer underneath and I'm plenty warm for my hour-long commute. Recommended.

This showed up at my doorstep yesterday. It's going back in the post today. I'm 5'5", @125lbs, so I ordered the small. Jersey seems well constructed, although the zipper was a little finicky. Torso was nice and snug, cut of the sleeves felt good when in a riding position. Very much what I'd consider race cut. But the cuffs? The cuffs at the ends of the sleeves were loose. Flappy. Like a club cut jersey. Not like any other Castelli jerseys I own (this was the first of the Podium series that I tried). Or any other race cut jerseys I own. Come on people, I'm a cyclist. I have skinny arms.

It's a pump, and if you get it on Bonktown, it's pretty inexpensive. I'm not sure how well it's going to hold up, and it really does take quite a bit of effort to get a 120psi tire inflated.

You're better off spending good money on a good pump, but if you're really low on cash, this'll do the job.

I'm giving these three stars, because they're very well made. Having said that, the sizing for these things is awful. At least for me. I'm 5'5", 125, so I ordered them in a Small. When they arrived and I put them on, I was pretty disappointed. The hemline is just a little bit above my ankle. For a knicker, I'd expect these to go no lower than upper-to-mid-calf, but these things are way too long for me. By comparison, the Cutter Tech Knickers in Small are the perfect length for me. Maybe these are just designed for tall, skinny people. Again, they're really well made. I have the LG Durango MTB shorts (picked up from Chainlove), and these are very similar. Same material, same chamois, same fly and everything. I was really hoping for the utility of the pockets that came with these, plus they look really nice. They're just too long. I have to send them back.

I can't believe more people aren't buying/reviewing these bikes, especially at the Bonktown prices. I picked one of these up last month, and after having my LBS help me get the cantis set up correctly, have been taking it out every weekend for cyclocross races. This is a great bike. Comes with a pretty nice stock wheelset, good components (for the money), and a very nice weight. Only thing I had to swap was the crankset. I wanted 'cross gearing on there, so I put a different Gossamer on there with 46/36. Oh, and 'cross brake levers. For the Bonktown price, I don't see how you can beat this.

Got this on Chainlove a few weeks ago, and I've been using it for the daily commute the past couple weeks.

NOTE: I ordered the Green pack, and it came with the rain cover AND a hydration reservoir.

I had read a really positive review of this on MTBR, so when I saw it here, I went for it. Glad I did. The FLASH strap system is really great, the expandability is awesome, and the rain cover has already been put to work (with great success). I also really like the way the frame keeps the pack away from your back.

I will agree with the MTBR reviewer in that there isn't a whole lot you can do in terms of organizing things in the main compartment. It's just a big empty space. That works fine for me though, because I've mainly been using this for commuting, so I just throw my clothes for the day in the main compartment. The front pocket is nicely divided so you can put tools, some snacks, etc...

Bottom line: Highly recommended, especially if you can get it on Chainlove.

I was not impressed with these lights. They don't look to be the least bit weatherproof - no gasket in the battery compartment. Speaking of the battery compartment, when I did get the lid off, I had trouble getting it seated just right. Sent them back. I'd rather spend a little more for some knogs.

Finally got a chance to wear these today, and I'm really happy that I bought them. The liner is extremely comfortable, and the fit there is great. The shell was actually fairly loose (I ordered a small), but thanks to the little pull tabs on the sides, I was able to make it as snug as I needed it to be.

Although I didn't need most of them, these shorts boast a stunning array of pockets. You should be able to carry everything you need. I liked the small pocket on the lower right leg for carrying my ID and some cash. I also really like the vent zips on the front. They got some use today, too.

Anyway, after riding 55 miles, I was just as comfortable when I finished as I was when I started. And that's really the most important thing to know.

This is a really great looking jersey, and the quality seems to be there, but the sizing is just all off.

I bought this in a small, and I was swimming in it. I had to send it back. Small in almost everything else fits me fine.

If I saw this in XS, I'd probably try it again. Like I said, I liked it, it was just too huge to actually wear.
