Bump. @ColT wants to talk about cycling apparel 
I’ve heard good things about Assos, but amongst my club and those that I see on the road. I don’t actually see many Assos apparel. Last time I checked, it’s priced just as much as Rapha, but I guess it’s as flashy?
I went and bought a pair of Red White bib shorts (the Bib) for around 4900NT about a year ago and they were quite possibly the best investment I’ve made.
A friend sold me his pair of Rapha Lightweight Bib Shorts for really cheap (retail is around 5300NT on the Rapha website), so I can safely say, they’re in the same category.
After a few wears, still like my Red White bib shorts. If it wasn’t for how cheap the Rapha bibs were, I would be re-selling them. Honestly, it just shows you have to be some kind of perfect Rapha physique/figure to wear their apparel. I’ve ordered a few things from them and they never…ever fit.
