The sizing guide is the only thing holding me back from pulling the trigger on this. Can somebody who's received any of this gear from aliexpress give me a steer. I'm a 40" chest and 32"waist generally in 'normal' clothing so looks like I'd be a large in jersey size. As for the bottoms the dimensions are given loose and tight. If I went by the tight guide then even the small size looks a bit too big... confused.com!

As buying any clothing online your taking a chance on size but a little more with cycling gear, your prolly right that you need large for the jersey, im 42 chest and i just get away with the fit (more tight then lose) , i went for large bib shorts and they fit perfect, if i was you i'd just go large for both , for 18-20 quid you dont have much to lose, if they dont fit sell on gumtree or FB, recoup the money and reorder a size you need, i know the waiting time is long but thats the way it is

baz and others who have ordered these - do you think the pads in the Bibs would be suitable for a 90 miler?

Yea, I was thinking that as I had my eye on the Castelli set but that's from a different seller. Might take a punt anyway.

With regards to sizing, it appears that perhaps they are about half size smaller than normal sizing, does that seem about right?
For UK cycling gear I am now on the top end of L, so I assume I would be better off going XL for these items from China.

My assos rip off just arrived. Medium is absolutely perfect and the quality of the jersey is amazing. I'm a little bit stunned and will be ordering more. The pockets are a little narrow but for a tenner!!

The only team kit I'd fancy is the trek kit so might order that from the same seller. I know the jersey size but I'll be taking a risk on the bibs. A cheap risk though.
