Fat Boab Posted August 31, 2017 Share Fat Boab, we had a bit of a disaster with our gripper dots not being correctly cured for a production week a while back, early 2016 I think it was. It's a real egg on face moment and we can only apologise. The shorts should still function pretty much fine without them, but that was obviously never the plan. Some folks (our CEO included) prefer the clean lycra finish... but again, that's not what you bought into. We've fixed most of the shorts free of charge, but obviously tarnished the reputation of some of our products with this mishap. We're obviously more than happy to fix yours, but since you've lost all this weight I'll also extend a 30% discount to you on your next pair of shorts should you be willing to trust us again (drop me a pm). We've also recently upgraded to genuine silicone as well for all the gripper bands, so all future production shorts will have these hardier grippers... My apologies againAndrew Exceptionally generous offer Andrew - many thanks. Nice to see a brand back itself - well done! I'll give you a shout via PM, if I'm able to take you up on the offer of a 30% discount. I'm in the process of preparing for a move to the UK later this year so I may be desperate for 30% off of a down-stuffed, goretex, lycra onsie! A Scottish winter is not for sissy-cyclists!

lechatnoir Posted August 31, 2017 Share I must say I'm really impressed with Anatomic's engagement here. When I started cycling decades ago, I had a cherished pair of gold label shorts - these were awesome. IIRC they even had REAL chamois. I still have a soft spot for the brand (see what I did there?) and will DEFINITELY be heading into their showroom for some new togs when weather warms up.

Luckily for the sake of return business they went out of style as I'm not sure they would ever give up the ghost Thanks for the feedback Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've actually looked at it before, but I think for the sake of advertiser neutrality the BikeHub guys can't really be favoring any one brand. Maybe they can put us on rotation... Will test the waters though Long Wheel Base and Dexter-morgan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They not bibs so don't use them much anymore but still awesome. The one pair I crashed in and they have a hole on my hip so use them on the IDT or under shorts when I go for a ride with the wife and toddler. The chamois is still hundreds.

Maybe they can put us on rotation... Will test the waters though I recollect there used to be 'The Hub' cycling kit. Not sure how official it was etc. When the I-team tried for a sub-3 947 a couple of years ago, we looked at Hub tops but there weren't any available at such short notice. I'd think there's definitely a gap that needs to be filled? Anatomic Sportswear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TALUS Posted September 3, 2017 Share Excited about the new cycling cap we have developed - looks like an old school cotton cycling cap, but unlike cotton, these are fully printable... Should be ready for custom orders in a couple weeks time. Stock ones also will start appearing in our shops before the end of September - 8 unique designs already in production and counting. Time to up your Cap game Ride Retro Cap.JPGPlease tell me that you will have different sizes. I am a 62/63 and non of the many caps are suitable for 3-5 hour rides - all too tight.

I am a 62/63 and non of the many caps are suitable for 3-5 hour rides - all too tight.My boss has a 62cm pip and it fits him comfy... and as always, "custom sportswear" doesn't just mean the design, we can add a cm to the elastic if really needs be for these, but I would guess you will be just fine with the stock standard one.
