Distance version. No need to shout.
oopse my bad, thanks
both.
As promised, the store is closed.

If you missed it, we will try for one more this fall.
Good, because I missed my chance to pick up a some fleecy bibs, and a new set of leg warmers. Otherwise you'll all have to see my saggy leg warmers another season.

^the horror
SKINSUIT owners.  Please get 'em back to Ride Brooklyn this week if you can.

Tell them you are dropping them off for me to pick up.
Jules - why do skinsuit owners need to return them ?
Ian, all the skinsuits were printed with at least one error.  New ones are on their way; current owners need to return the incorrect ones for exchange.
Do I need to drop off my non-stitched bibs for replacement?
Jules, I can't see any errors but I will return anyway, thank you for being so diligent.

Given the issues with the skinsuits, the razor shorts before that. Not too mention the tales of kit not surviving regular washing, uncomfortable pads and killer leg grippers have we ever considered changing supplier ?
Ideally one that ships on time.

My club in the UK used Bio-racer for a while, but we had so many issues we switched to Giordana. It took a while for people to adjust to the price increase, but the stuff fit perfectly, lasted for ever and was delivered quickly.
I am sad to return my skinsuit. I haven't even had time to get it super muddy in a CX race that I have to squeeze the mud out of the chamois.
@Ian: I can't speak to any issues before this order, but errors in manufacturing are a reality of the business.

This time we asked for 400+ pieces in one order, got 2 week service and only 12 errors in printing, all limited to skinsuits.  The skinsuits have been redone at zero cost in a timely manner, even though most of the purchasers never even noticed the errors.

Champsys also sponsors all the races in Prospect, as well as our club specifically.

@ Jeff: yes.



We used to have giordana and they were great. But championsys (aka charlie issendorf) is a sponsor and there are political considerations. And Jules is right, we do benefit from a special relationship.

For skin suit owners, look at the side of your thighs. It is supposed to say 'Kissena'

Just don't put your jerseys in the dryer or you deserve whatever happens.

Jules, David

.... Understood.

And you are correct .... I didn't realize it was supposed to say Kissena on the shorts. I quite like the minimal look of the stripes !
Jules, do we have to wash the skinsuit first? :-P It's just that I've still not washed mine from the track champs.

Should be able to drop mine on Sunday. It might be able to walk there on its own by then.
@Jules - dropped off this evening.
Would enjoy getting the kit - is it still available? Got a century coming up and would like to show the team colors!
jules - whats the deadline for getting the skinsuit back? we have several crits coming up and I'd like to use it. My worry, and its a small worry, is that I turn mine in but the replacement will not arrive... I thought we would send ours back when the new ones arrived?
New Skinsuits will be dropped off at Ride Brooklyn on Monday September 3rd.
You can leave your old one there when you pick it up.
where are they now
Sitting in a box on my living room floor waiting for me to get back from vacation to collate & walk over to RB
They got large bibs too I should exchange for?
Skinsuits only Jeff.
Hit me up when I'm in town and we'll take care of those bibs.  I know  your taint is longing for the return of The Hotness...
is there a tentative arrival date for the fall order??
Not yet.  I'll post it when I know.
thx...u da man.
SKINSUITS:

Champ Sys munged the order.

Our original was for 14 suits (of various kinds) with endurance chamois
They only shipped 8

I'm in the process of trying to sort it out.

If you ordered a skinsuit I will contact you directly with the status of your suit.

I cannot manage the process through this forum.
Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, what a pain. At least it sounded like your trip was
nice!
