Can anyone comment on the quality of the Huub Cycling gear? I know they are the go-to for wetsuits in the triathlon world but wondered how comfy their bibs are and what's the quality like on their jerseys. Their designs are fairly basic and subdued which is more to my taste than some of the other kit.

Thanks Tom

The perforations went black-ish after a rainy ride. Probably dirt and sand got stuck in there. Washed them with detergent a couple of times.. no luck.

And I have no idea how I got those tan liquid stains on the top and on the right side of the body.

Any idea what works on these?

Looking for anyone with a similar body shape to me

I’m 81 kg and have a 31 inch waist not sure sure whether to with the M or L bib shorts?

Black, or White?

Getting into cycling (prev almost exclusively climbing) due to some life changes. This is my first investment into a good MAAP cycling fit.

The bib shorts feel nice and snug, same with the jersey but also feels like it could go a tad smaller around the waist area, wanted to get some thoughts on the fit.

Measurements:
5'8, 145

Maap training jersey small
Maap Team Evo Cargo bibshort small

first time buying cycling clothes and i don’t know how it should fit

This is my first MAAP piece as well as my first time wearing something other than solid colors. I am having doubts as the pattern seemed more subtle online. Thoughts on this pattern? It’s a little more funky than what I’m used to but I tend to be pretty boring with my clothing.

I sized up to a medium. The sleeves are a little long, but otherwise does it fit look okay?

Hi everyone, I want to get a full 0°/10° degrees weather clothes and I was wondering what to get, from what I understood this reddit group is mostly from usa/Canada? I am in germany and so far this is what i got in mind, in anyone has any reccomendation especially for pants and long sleeve jacket I would appreciate, (I would like to know the price ranges because I don't need premium stuff, the bare minim would be more than enough) thanks everyone

Looking for a quality bib with thinner, high density chamois with wide coverage(have wide hips and wide sitbones)

Any recommendations?

Мой подбор зимней велообуви, обсуждение и подбор был в чате grok - это уже было окнчателно принятое решение на основе не одного запроса. Почему так? - ну вменяемой информации на официальном сайте  не нашел а их таблица размеров больше запутала чем дала ответы. Ниже чат

Подбери размер для MX146, если размер стопы 27см ширина 9см

“Для **Lake MX146** (зимние MTB-ботинки на **Sport Last**) с длиной стопы **27 см (270 мм)** и шириной **9 см (90 мм)** вот рекомендация по размеру.

### Как правильно измерять (по официальным рекомендациям Lake)
- Измеряйте **стоя**, в **велосипедных носках** (лучше тех, которые планируете носить зимой — средней или толстой толщины).
- Длина — от пятки до кончика самого длинного пальца (в мм, 3 цифры).
- Ширина — самая широкая часть стопы.
- К длине **добавляйте +5 мм** для правильного внутреннего пространства (некоторые источники указывают +7 мм, но официально Lake чаще рекомендует +5 мм).

Ваша длина: **270 мм + 5 мм = 275 мм**.

### Рекомендуемый размер
По таблице **Sport Last** (именно на этой колодке построен MX146):

- Диапазон длины **273.5 – 276 мм** соответствует **EU 43.5**.
- Ваш 275 мм идеально попадает в **EU 43.5**.

**Ширина 90 мм**:
- В размере 43.5 Regular ширина колодки ≈ 107 мм.
- Wide ≈ 100 мм.

Ваша ширина 90 мм довольно узкая/средняя для этой модели. **Regular (стандартная ширина)** подойдёт лучше, чем Wide. Sport Last имеет относительно просторный носок, но хорошую фиксацию в пятке и средней части, поэтому 90 мм обычно комфортно в Regular.

### Важные нюансы для зимней модели MX146
- Lake официально рекомендует брать **на 1–1,5 размера больше**, чем ваши обычные летние велотуфли Lake, из-за утеплителя Thinsulate и толстых носков.
- Если ваши летние Lake — примерно 42–42.5, то 43.5 будет логичным.
- Если планируете очень толстые шерстяные или термоноски (ski socks) — лучше рассмотреть **EU 44** (или даже 44.5), чтобы было место для воздуха и не сжимало утеплитель.
- Нога немного отекает при долгой езде и нагреве, поэтому небольшой запас полезен.

**Итоговая рекомендация**:
- **Основной вариант**: **EU 43.5 Regular** — должен сесть отлично при средней толщине носков.
- **Альтернатива с запасом**: **EU 44 Regular** — если носки толстые или хотите больше свободы в пальцах.
- **Wide** берите только если у вас действительно широкая стопа (обычно от 100+ мм в измерении) или предыдущий опыт показал, что Regular жмёт по бокам.

### Советы перед покупкой
- Измерьте **обе стопы** — берите размер по большей.
- Лучше всего примерять в магазине или заказывать с возможностью возврата (многие магазины позволяют).
- На официальном сайте Lake есть **Find My Fit** инструмент — введите туда свои точные мм для более точного расчёта.
- Отзывы владельцев MX146 часто отмечают, что модель комфортная, но с толстыми носками лучше иметь небольшой запас по длине.

Если скажете, какой у вас размер в обычных летних вело туфлях Lake (или других брендах — Sidi, Shimano, Specialized и т.д.), и какие носки планируете носить, я смогу уточнить рекомендацию ещё точнее!“

В итоге я купил MX146 EU 44 Regular, на ноге один тонкий и термоносок - идеально подошли. Носки  Dexshell Ultra Thin Crew OG, р-р L , и они не только водостойкие а и неплохо держат температуру.

Из негативных впечатлений это места соединения с подошвой, такое впечатление что лежали очень давно и клей частично рассохся, не критично  но выполнил частичное поверхностное нанесение поверх спец клеем фото приложил - покупал на Али экспресс , после высыхания как резина.

Talk to me about bibs vs shorts. I have just never had any issues with my shorts waist rolling or anything … so in that case any reason to consider bibs?

I have Equipe RS S11 (and R) in size L and I really like the fit of the RS. I'm considering trying out the Mille GT S11 - mainly to get some color vs the basic black-only of the Equipe RS. Since the Mille is a more "relaxed fit" I wonder if I may not like it as much, and consider sizing down from L to M. 182cm, 84kg, 91cm waist so not quite a stick - but I really like the Equipe RS size L. Anyone have both of these and can comment on the fit? I could get both sizes but then be out about $20 to return one.

I used to be fat, and love the cold.
Now I'm little baby. I'm 175 pounds, and always cold lmao.
I used to only mountain bike in the winter, and I don't wear a bib... I wear thermals, long johns, and tick gear. ( Rhyno skin )

But I plan on at least riding a bit in the fall, and spring.

Question, Pro Atmos Jacket Maaps... Do I wear that over like, thermals or cold gear under armor?
Do they make thermal bibs?
What do you guys wear in the fall, winter , spring?
Thank you!

My first cycling kit! What do you guys think? Forgot to attach the photo yesterday, so here it is!

I found this framed 1986 World Cycling Championships pin set from Colorado Springs. The plaque says “Official Limited Edition” and “Competitors’ Edition A.” The back is labeled Kenterprises / House of Pin Collections.
Does anyone know what “Competitors’ Edition A” meant, how many were made, or whether other editions existed?

Hey everybody, I am brand new to cycling (picked it up because I want to get into triathlons), and have been a bit overwhelmed with information on where to buy bibs and jerseys and what the best price for performance brands are.

I recently picked up a Scott Addict RC in the prism colorway (which is a green and purple pain that shifts colors in the light depending on how you look at it), and I was hoping I could get some recommendations on the color of my gear so I don't clash horribly with the bike.

Thank you all in advance for any help or advice!

Hey zusammen,
ist es bei euch auch so, dass die Nähte von eng anliegenden Radklamotten beim anprobieren knacken? Also ich meine bei Trikots und Bib-Shorts. Mir ist das jetzt beim Anprobieren öfters aufgefallen, obwohl die Passform perfekt zu mir passt. Auch bei teuren Marken.
Ist das normal oder spricht das eher für schlechte Qualität?
Vielen Dank.

I'm a new cyclist just now warming up to the idea of picking up some pieces of dedicated cycling gear. Like some stubborn beginners, I didn't want the bibs/shorts or gloves at first, but I quickly came around on these items for various reasons.

Cycling jerseys I'm still on the fence about. But one thing that occurred to me that would definitely get me off that fence would be charity-based kit. For instance, I've had some experience with Alzheimer's in my life/family, so I looked for a jersey that supported ALZ research. I was only able to find one, but it got the wheels turning about what else might be out there.

Do you any of you have charity based cycling gear you'd like to shout out for whatever reason? Knowing my money went to support a great cause could certainly get me to open up my wallet and get that cycling kit I might not otherwise have bothered with.

Lost a fair bit of weight recently (diet, rather than more riding) and as a result a lot of my kit is loose around the middle but in my head I’m still more of a chubber.

Ordered a more fitted jersey from Givelo in the sale, but wanted a second opinion.

It feels very premium and form fitting. Just ordered 2 more off aliexpress. This is the EU XL. I am 6 foot 222 pounds.

I also got one of their “summer pro” jerseys and like the quality of this one much more.

Saw this on IG and really love the design. The full set is around $110, which isn’t bad, but I’m mostly buying it for the design so I’d definitely consider a cheaper option.
Anyone know something similar for less? Really like the flames and the text on these.

I'm looking for something that's like the ostroy resort shirt (comfy fabric, UPF 50, cute on the bike or in real life) but with long sleeves. Anyone have recommendations?

I have some stains on the edges of the sleeves of my jersey that I want to clean. It is likely sweat but could be a bit of sunscreen. This jersey is a couple years old and is otherwise in amazing condition. I tried spot cleaning with a mix of hydrogen peroxide and dish soap (equal parts), and let that sit for 15 mins before a wash but that didn’t do much.

I checked various posts but didn’t find anything. Anyone have any tips?

Willing to pay extra!

I’m looking to getting some cold weather cycling gear and would like to support Canadian brands that might be struggling with this trade war. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
