When i look @ the P N S jersey. I cant help but fill in gaps. P E N I S

[@franciscosantiago4921]

MAAP: minor aattracted person😮

[@sdbowen18]

I’m still confused about how people will cough up $200AUD for a jersey seems stupid.

[@brandonhoffman4712]

Ya im on my 3rd bib in the video. 160, 230, 190. I'm leaving now. I just needed to find someone in agreement to know im not crazy.

[@discbrakefan]

Interesting stuff Chris. Would love to see a bit of a review including some other Australian brands such as Pedal Mafia, Attaquer, Soomom, Neopro (who don’t use sublimated Lycra 😉). There are plenty more out there too. Also interested in your thoughts on matching socks to kit and also matching (or contrasting) other accessories such as bidons to bike frames.

[@nickobec]

+1 for more Australian brands add Pedla, Cat1, Babacci, Pedalare to that list and there are many more.

[@CG-99]

forgive my ignorance, but what is sublimated Lycra???

[@deepspringboy]

can you explain the sublimated lycra comment please David?

[@nickobec]

@@deepspringboy ​ @CG two types of lycra pre-dyed and post-dyed aka sublimated. Pre-dyed is created that colour out of the factory aka textile mill. Sublimated is white lycra that is dyed later, either for a logo or for a design/print. The issue with sublimated lycra is the colour is not as well fixed as pre-dyed. So if you get bibs like my NeoPro bibs with a majority of pre-dyed lycra and a panel on the back that is sublimated for the brand name. So all panels start life as the same colour, after a few washes the pre-dyed lycra is still the original colour, the post dyed lycra has faded. The other issue with sublimated is lycra leprosy, a big chunk of the lycra can lose it's colour, so you can end up with big faded areas. This is far more common in bibs than jerseys. I refuse to buy bibs that have been sublimated with a brand or logo, it is a risk I am not willing to take, especially when most kit companies have moved away from sublimated logos. I will buy sublimated designs, the bibs will have a shorter life span than solid colour pre dyed, but if the look good, then I will.

[@deepspringboy]

@@nickobec Thanks mate, great explanation. I'm guessing that's why Neopro can market/sell their bibs and jerseys as cheaper than bigger brands, as the quality is lower?

[@marcorudolph4180]

Do you think you can look at the gobik kit

[@blakegillmer]

Fashion Fridays are becoming best viewing of the week. Good and famous from the states do some interesting and left field stuff. Par Küp is a new Aussie brand worth a look too. Come on @rapha just do a run on the kit give the people what they want lol.

[@damienwalker1026]

How did your Peaks campaign go?

[@iansellers1251]

Why no softener in with lycra? Fades ?

[@Olegdt-y9z]

we need Fashion Friday again Chris.

[@Mi_cycling]

You are a legend Chris, more of this pls :)

[@czeckson74]

Rapha rated trough the "pink lens" (as a RAPHA sponsored rider) ;-)

[@andrewdekort4544]

Hey Chris, have you done a review of the Australian brand “Neo pro”?

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

No I haven’t. I have seen the gear a few times, the quality doesn’t look great

[@gethinap]

The pattern on the MAAP Jersey reminds me of the bad guy in the first The Incredibles film

[@mynock250]

PAS in the the states is a lot cheaper than MAAP in us dollars, which is surprising with the value of the Audie dollar.

[@Samuel-bu7xr]

The Maap jersey has an 'M' on the front, an 'A' on the back. It's all in the name really 😂

[@seanpeter3613]

Percy Mash, Attacus, Biehler; Gobik are some European brands you might look into😀

[@trentbowman2166]

would love to see a review of the more affordable brand like NeoPro cycling and society cycling and how they stand up against the more quality brands like black sheep and rapha and if there more affordable prices are worth the product. especially for people like me with a family and living of one wage

[@garylugg9860]

Using Neo Pro and it’s been awesome and realistically priced not like the items here

[@trentbowman2166]

@@garylugg9860 Give society cycling a go! i have their bib shorts, jersy and base layer and it is the best gear i own and i cant imagine myself buying anything else but society, also looks good!

[@trentbowman2166]

@@garylugg9860 the only reason i went society and not neopro was i liked the style and look of society more, and i didnt regret my purchase $60 jersy and $90 bibshorts

[@vuxitoki1545]

Love the black sheep, sheep face logo

[@wendysuperfan1014]

What about Melbourne's Giramondo kits. Do you rate the Chamois too?? Thanks Chris.

[@BrettKelly74]

Comment of the video “what a skinny guy” says the man who is only 62kg 🤣🤣

[@Lyfewick9530]

AliExpress Spexcel for the WIN!! 😅😅

[@tassfilm]

Rapha will always get a good review. Maybe a disclaimer is needed. 🤣🤣🤣

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Not going to bad mouth most things to be honest. I would say go back and have a look at the video I did talking about their merino jerseys, certainly wasn’t positive.

[@ryanturk4418]

Always thought some teams custom kits are some of the sickest. Would be a cool video or instagram series to highlight/review folks that submit them

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

That’s a great idea. So ask people to send in their local club and team kits, and then go through them. Let’s do it!

[@DanTuber]

I like la passione but only buy it when on sale. The rest of those brands are stupidly expensive. $200+ just for a jersey is a joke.

[@vuxitoki1545]

Hey Chris can you talk about matching kit with your bike please? Also how helmets/shoes play in this 🤔

[@MrFornicater]

PNS has always had the laziest designs, most of it has always been just copying Nike Gyakusou. Success mainly based on showing off purchasing power.

[@rayF4rio]

So, where are the plus sized models????

[@dflett1881]

Used the big brands all my life..finally we use a local Aussie company.. "Salita" its amazingly priced! and designed by local pro riders ..totally destroys the big guys.. Dyl Sunderland just podiumed DW on the stuff.. If your not on it..your missing out! Support these guys as one day they will be bigggg players .. Well done "Salita Sports" ..Owners are good people and genuine

[@leroy_who]

la Passione- most comfortable jerseys that i've worn, by far. Cheers.

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Good choice!

[@southjerseycycling106]

Literally just ordered that Rapha jersey before watching this video

[@steve-d0]

Check the Pedal Mafia stuff. Their past few releases have been great looking. Also maybe look at the middle ground ranges. The every day kits that people wear when they dont want to get their "good" kit ruined. Eg Raphas Core range. Mid priced but still not cheap. That could be a total can of worms being opened.

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Hey Steve. Good idea on the middle range stuff. The problem I have reviewing that start stuff is so much of it is quality based, so without putting the miles into the kit it’s hard to really comment on them. That said, I’ll always comment on the look 😁

[@ryshort7255]

Chris: makes a video about some jerseys from *premium* brands People in comments: tHis Is uNAfFoRDaBle Y’all know that you’re not obligated to purchase these, right? There are plenty offerings from more affordable brands out there. So you expect Chris to make a video of literally every single brand under the sun? C’mon guys.. be better.

[@gavinhughes8686]

Most cyclists aren’t going to throw $200 plus on a jersey when the same brands have cheaper stock (ie Rapha have the core jersey for less than $120). Here’s a challenge…do a fashion Friday on how you can do a complete wardrobe (jerseys, bibs/tights, gilet, rain jacket, winter accessories) for less than $700.

[@nickobec]

PNS the schoolboy in me wants to add an E and I and unfortunately if I see another rider in PNS kit, that is what I subconsciously think that of them. So a no from me. Black Sheep, far more interested in their long sleeve aero racing. As losing 50 grams from a jersey is not going to help me win races with climbs. Not a fan of the gradients, only the Vista Blue gets a yeah from me. Aero it would be Autumn Glaze (jersey) + Italian Plum (bibs and gilet) La Passione, like the understated look, but the colour palate. Sage maybe, so overall no. MAAP, as much as I like the technical detail of the jersey, the M on the front and A on the back mean it is a no. Rapha not a fan of the design of that jersey. US brands Ostroy has big social media presence and does some real amazing designs, no experience with yet. Velocio had good experience, but they have been swallowed by the SRAM borg. Search and State, nice kit just order bibs by height not weight. I do have some very short bib shorts.

[@shawnsmith7009]

The best top you’ve worn for a long time.

[@_n_d_]

PNS on the back of a jersey... that's a no from me! Also it's an "A" on the back of the MAAP jersey Chris. :)

[@abcxyz6880]

BlackSheep good, the rest absolutely horendes 0-1star for me

[@samfitzpatrick8442]

Siiiick video again. Love fashion friday! Get pedal mafia on here somewhere! And MAAP for me is low key the nicest kit ive ever worn. pricey though vs for example Rapha Pro Team Aero stuff.

[@byrondixon4648]

I'd be keen to see you review NeoPro $60 v $200 stuff. I'm happy with my red NeoPro. 🙂

[@jessejamesv]

Not a fan of the graphics on the MAAP, but the suggested accessories bit is cool. Nothing like full matchy kit.

[@user-cx2bk6pm2f]

Shiny is good, no? I think shiny surfaces reflect more heat energy than matte.

[@contentedself]

I dig Attaquer you should review them. But that green MAAP piece was 🔥

[@crailwah]

Yea the 200 + stuff just hit the pockets a bit too much but in the other hand these jerseys last quite some time

[@Jlijnse2007]

I heartily recommend that you try some Pas Normal clothing. I really like the bibshorts especially the pads/chamois, the best I've ridden yet (reference point Assos, Castelli and Santini). Try buy them at a sale because of the price.. 😬 I have the Control Fleece bibs, Mechanism Long and Solitude Short sleave jersey. The fabric (made in Italy or nearby) are second to none. It's hard to put back some other brand clothing after a ride. By the way, avoid the bibshorts from La Passione, terrible fit.. I do own a few La Passione merino wool shirts though that fit perfectly. So don't judge a book by it's cover too much 😉

[@craigg9742]

Love fashion fridays! But what is going on with the brown bibs on some of these sites???? Those are a hard no from me.

[@tolulopeobe]

I do agree with you on a “no” for brown bib shorts but you can argue that they kinda look great the way the brands model them though

[@tomrachellesfirstdance7843]

Please do a video on the marketing Chris it will be legendary! I will for sure need a new pair of pants as I will end up wetting myself at some point in the video. Big news with Russel Wilson, bet your dreams have come true. He will be able to throw the deep ball about 500 yards up in mile high 😂

[@Fred_Nice]

Love fashion Fridays!! None of those jerseys did much for me. MAAP was ok, the rest had too much of that earth tone hippy fruit and nut vibe.

[@Mincher]

Not sure I want a jersey with PeNiS written on the back.

[@climberjoe]

PAHH Normal

[@olichesh8542]

Love these vids Chris, but not a fan of any of those sorry!!! Will there be a video on your new Broncos no.3 jersey when it arrives?! 🐎

[@SpecRaceM5]

Every time I see the back of the PAS jersey I immediately think it says penis. 😂

[@MagicalCurrent]

Society Cycling is P4P the best stuff out, very new and super high quality with great value But obvs of the new people alot of people big NeoPro & Soomom Otherwise I dig Pedal Mafia, Attaquer and Black Sheep occasionally

[@majedhrh7320]

Assos beats all these brands in terms of durability and quality.

[@breathestrongcycling3672]

How much?!?.....Geez, no wonder China exists...😏✌️

[@nguyenho9591]

Buying PNS is like buying a Supreme brick

[@adaml7987]

You’ve lost your shit if you think the rapha jersey was a good design!!!

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Stand by the call on the rapha jersey, but can confirm I lost my shit years ago 😁

[@Samuel-bu7xr]

Ever since a friend showed me Brandt Sorenson's catalog, I haven't been able to stomach PNS - blatant copies of a small-scale, independent operator.

[@eto2352]

Brandt Sorenson amateur doper no one cares what he does with his crappy, crooked sewn kits.

[@zachs6191]

Throw in some views of Aliexpress brands like Spexcel and YKBike. I've got some great jerseys from Spexcel that have very similar features of the La Passione you featured. Hard to stomach paying 4x more for just the brand name.

[@derekcravenPT]

Don’t like the looong sleeves on most of them, only Rapha’s sleeves were a sensible length…suns out, guns(?) out ( yeah , I know we skinny cyclists don’t have guns! No rain here in NZ for a long time, great for riding.

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Hey mate. I like the option, short sleeves for training, long sleeves for racing.

[@MacedonianGrace]

Very Nice stuff. But I'm not paying more than £50 per jersey. I'll wait for the Sale.🏦🥊🇲🇰‼️🏠👍✅✅✌️☀️☀️

[@alduarte4448]

You have great taste, wish I could say same for Me, but am improving!

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Haha! It’s all some fun

[@pavlos..]

No Pedla! Best Australian brand iand best brand in Australia and not even featured

[@jessejamesv]

Pas Normal = 1/5

[@jeremystoupas6165]

Sorry; I generally enjoy your videos; but this IMHO, wasn’t your best. Fashion and what people like is very subjective. Listening to you labour through what colour schemes you like (without actually reviewing the products) was a little cringeworthy. I’m not really sure what this video achieved. I’ll definitely keep watching your content but will respectfully skip your “Fashion Fridays”.

[@michaeldezwart9432]

Ratings on point..... except that Rapha kit - that is ugly, bit surprised you like that???

[@user-cx2bk6pm2f]

Love ya Chris, but wtf is this? The bad KZbiny music... the KZbin standard meme injections. I'd rather have more Chris and less KZbiny junk.

[@valiantabello]

Universal Colours do what Pas Normal do but better and it doesn't say PENIS on the back. As for Russell Wilson in Denver, I'm stoked for you and I think it's a massive improvement but he'll need a running game to support him and I don't think he has it yet As for American brands for Fashion Fridays, PACTIMO has an Artist Series which is hit/miss, and Ostroy has *amazing* stuff, as well as Ornot and God & Famous. I should make my own KZbin channel uh?

[@bubby372]

All poser stuff.

[@minchia04]

I know you mean well and do this in jest, but I feel this video perpetuates the elitist and exclusive nature of cycling. Not affordable for the average Joe who wants to get into it.

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

And this is the reason I stopped doing these video, this exact comment

[@garylugg9860]

Take a look at local Aussie companies like NeoPro . Best value for money

[@nickobec]

@minchia04 if you carry this logic to any show about cars, they love to talk above the latest and greatest sports cars, is that perpetuating driving is elitist and exclusive. Most shows about houses are well above the budget of your average person (particularly in Australia) does that mean they are perpetuating living in a house is elitist and exclusive. Cooking shows with expensive ingredients does that make eating exclusive. @Chris Miller Cycling is talking about one segment of the market, there is plenty of variety in the market and cycling in general. Hell I am a 62 year old racing a 16 year old alloy bike against kids younger than my bike, riding bikes with external ( ie exposed) brake cables, cycling is not elitist or exclusive.

[@minchia04]

@@ChrisMillerCycling sorry Chris, I really do enjoy your other videos. I did Peaks for the first time this year after your Peaks video last year, I regularly ride a similar route to Akuna after seeing it on your Strava, and I enjoy your Q&A sessions with Jesse (as I do appreciate your thoughts on all things cycling and non-cycling). I'm sure many others get value from these videos, but just not me. Whether you consider my criticism constructive or not, I'll leave to you. @Nick Cowie I do watch car videos, but I do so to appreciate the engineering and innovative design. Not quite the same levels, I think you'd agree. Each to their own, I don't aspire to own expensive stuff to project social status.

[@CG-99]

$230 for Black Sheep, €180 for PNS……., most people need a stock of 4-6 jerseys, so $1000 or €1000 just for a set of new jerseys - all before you refresh the stock of bib shorts - madness! Making this stuff seem normal only feeds the image of cycling in Australia that it is elitist - I live in continental Europe, here it is so much more democratic, so much less focussed on being a fashion parade, more of a regular persons sport…..consequently there is not the anti-cyclist sentiment that is such a problem in Australia and the UK.

[@gavinhughes8686]

Totally agree

[@hambo76]

Drivers hate cyclists here because they're car dependent and feel entitled to have all the road.
