After watching your last velotoze video I bought some yellow ones. Honestly mostly as a quick way to add some color matching to my outfit and thought some light wind protection as well, already have more traditional ones for better cold protection. Ordered large though I normal wear medium in shoe related things. They were horribly right almost impossible to get on during my trial. Taking off was simply impossible had to cut them off 😢no chance returning those suckers 😂 not your fault but they just doesn't work for me
Ha ha I’m not offended if you can’t dress or undress yourself 😂 😂 It was a little difficult but not to the point where I needed to cut them off 😂 furthermore they will be my go-to bootie for rain from now on 😊
Guessing those neoprene gloves would be more for warmth and the sleeve just in case it rains. I think the sleeve makes sense if no rain in the forecast but just cold.
Hey George, since my old roadbike Rose Pro Sl is a little too small for me i‘m looking for a new frame. It should have rimbrakes and not be made out of carbon. Im 1,89m tall and have an inseam of 93,5cm. Do you maybe know a good source or maybe a specific bikebrand or model ?
The best neoprene booties I've ever owned are the Le Col model. They come with a relatively tight cuff sewn in. They are not waterproof though. Those gloves look like a game changer if you wear them inside something warm. Their pricing is quite premium. Are the products at least made in the USA or more stuff from China?
Le Col seems like a legit brand without too much fluff. I have never worn their stuff but wouldn’t mind trying it. I am Leary about using brands that sell direct to consumers because they don’t support the LBS Regarding the gloves - I’ve noticed some of these types of gloves work under the wetsuit principle. Once there is a small layer of water your body heat keeps it warm and you’re fine. I have a pair similar to this from Nalini (exceptional quality clothing) and I rode them in a torrential 200 miler in February years ago and my hands were fine all day. I believe the Velotoze products are made in the US. I’ll check later today.
@@SeeYouUpTheRoad I hear you on the shopping local aspect. Le Col is definitely direct to consumer, but excellent customer service. Many others onliners not so much. I like to shop local whenever I can, but if my LBS only stocks made in China products I'd still rather buy online from US or Italian made company. Eliel Cycling makes some great bib shorts (made in Cali) but their jersey designs are a bit flash for me. I don't give a hoot where something is 'designed'. I'll have to check out the Nalini.
Best thumbnail ever

I wouldn't wear these for any other reason than a rainstorm

What size bike do you ride 58? Have you considered steel since you don’t want carbon?
@@SeeYouUpTheRoad 61cm currently according to Rose
@@SeeYouUpTheRoad I´just prefer steel or maybe aluminium more
