fatcyclist Posted March 24, 2009 Share Since 2004 I have been fortunate enough to some teams b*tch, so haven't had to buy cycling kit in a long while.. Now, due to changes of focus etc, I need some neutral kit. Currently looking at First Ascent and CapeStorm bibs. Who has them, who recommends them? Both about the same price (around R750 a pair). No, I'm poor, so no Assos, and not keen on trying Velotex or Anatomic (various reasons I couldn't care to go in to). So, "Eerste Klim" or "Kaapse storm"?

Kranswurm Posted March 24, 2009 Share I bought 2 pairs of FA and the stitching came loose on the chammy on both. Changed to 2 pairs CS and no problems very hardy and affordable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawieO Posted March 24, 2009 Share Cape Storm Matrix Bib is the business. Shirts are very comfy but not very pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thug Posted March 24, 2009 Share Why not try Giordana ? Their cheapest is the same price as First Ascent and CapeStorm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Zone Posted March 24, 2009 Share I have used CS Matrix for years and have always been very happy. I Have also heard good reports for the First Ascent stuff, they are probably much of a muchness. As a PPA member you get a 10 % discount on Cape Storm stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
