I recently bought two skinsuits in different sizes off ProBikeKit in a mad panic when they had just reduced them. Even while I was just looking at them there were a couple being bought every minute or two it was such good value. I just clicked on two sizes and went to the checkout asap. In the length of time it took me to check out (2-3mins) there were 4 more of the medium size sold and that was the end of that, all sold out in every size.
To cut a long story short, they both arrived yesterday, I looked at both of them, the smaller size looked around my size so I tried it on and it fits 100% perfect. I didn't even bother trying on the medium as I know it would be too big, and it still has all the tags on it and in the original packaging as you would expect.
It is a medium sized long sleeved skinsuit like in the picture. As you will see, its RRP is €93.59, they took 50% off in the sale making it €46.79 and then their usual 10% off everything brought it down to €42.11. Then, on top of all that I used their 10% off Christmas voucher and got it for €37.90.
So, I have the option of sending it back to them and getting exactly that amount back (I have even received a Returns Authorisation Number from them) but just remembered to put it up here and pass on the exceptional value to my fellow boardsies. I already have gloves to send back to them so I won't be paying any extra postage for this (both fit in together under the <500g package bracket), so as a result I will have to ask for the €3.85 for An Post and the PayPal fee (3.4% + 35c) which makes it €43.52 all in.
As you can see I am not making a single cent from this, it would be easier just to throw it off in the post with the gloves but hopefully someone will want to avail of this value. It is really very stretchy and will fit a wide range of sizes but don't go by the PBK size chart as it is way off. The size I went for shows it should fit a premature baby but it is the usual size I buy in cycling clothing and it fits perfectly.
Please let me know by this evening or else I will just assume nobody is interested and send it back in the morning. Cheers!

Mods, feel free to move my previous post into the Cycling Adverts section. I was just thinking there that it might be more apprepriate to have it there instead. I'm not sure, I will leave it up to you to decide! Cheers (sorry for any hassle caused)

Ballyhoura I'll take it off your hands.
Hey there! My PM is not working because of Adverts.ie ban, but you are lucky that I didn't get a chance to return it by post today and actually still have it (too busy xmas shopping!). You can however contact me on my email, I'll try and make it as spam proof as possible: my name, stephen clancy, all in one word followed by the number eleven, and thats at the email service provided by google if you get me! Same address for my PayPal if you decide to just send on the amount straight away (€43.52), but please remember to include the correct postal address, it should be there anyway! ThanksBallyhoura, if you still have that skinsuit, give it to Kensutz.
Good skinsuits though, a few of us got them in the summer when we went TT mad for about 1 week. (a week later there were a lot of disc wheels and aero helmets for sale)
Will do, no bother about that! I can actually second that they are actually really good skinsuits. My one fits me like as if it was sprayed on but not only that, the chamois insert is unbelievable. I can only really ever wear Assos to avoid saddle sores but this pad seems remarkably similar and just as comfy. Does anyone know if this pad would be in any of PBK's other clothing like their bib-shorts/tights?
P.S. Quigs, any chance there would be some of those disc wheels still for sale is there? I recently picked up an aero helmet in the lbs for a good price to match the colour of my white stealth! :P I'm not sure how I would be able to handle a disc...at 55kg it might be a bit much, or else just for very calm conditions. What do you think?
Also, any problems wearing non club gear like these PBK skinsuits in race TT's or TT leagues? I would hope not anyway! 0 -

I'll send you on the money through Paypal now if that's ok.
I got that there no problems, thanks!Incidentally anyone know is a fixed gear with a front brake acceptable in a time trial- if not at some point where does it become a problem (as if it is only at pro/national level that will be unlikely to concern me.)
I've difinitely seen fixed gear TT bikes being used, one was on an Irish Development squad at the time so I'd say there would be no problems, however I did not take any notice of his brake set up at the time! Sorry

The lack of a rear brake would be the issue, I have read UCI regs that seem to suggest that two cable-actuated brakes are required.Home:Ballyhoura wrote: »I've difinitely seen fixed gear TT bikes being used, one was on an Irish Development squad at the time so I'd say there would be no problems, however I did not take any notice of his brake set up at the time!
