Cheers.

42chest, 33waist...about 5ft 10.

I'm tempted to sell mine as I want a 1-piece suit for track.

If you're interested, I'll check size when I get home & then you could go try one on in same size at your local shop & see if it would fit. I'm 34" waist & 44" chest I think (too many pizza's),

New sliders & it would be in A1 condition (after cleaning the bugs off it).

Mark,
I like it mate... A bit too big perhaps? Double check the size for me, and I'll go and try one on.
Nice one. The best £50 I'd ever spent

You can buy a Hein Gericke 2-piece for around £300. I have their Tribal one and it's won a few Ride tests. It's comfy and seems to offer good protection.

I know what you mean, I like A*s too but they are by no means the best make, and they're very expensive. The reason many racers wear their gear is that they're paid to - if given the choice I imagine most would go for Crowtree, Hideout etc.

I had a set of Hideout leathers and they were very good but they are not in the BKS league. Pure quality (though very expensive!)

The quote from one of the bike journos a few years ago regarding BKS was along the lines of "at the cost, I wouldn’t want to fall off in them, but I definitely wouldn’t want anything else if I fell off!"
