What's the difference between the entropa and pelta jackets?

the entropa is a wind proof and rain resistant (verge say rain proof but it gets in eventually) cape its designed to be worn over short or long sleeved jerseys or even a thermal jacket on a very bad day it can fold down small enough to go into a back pocket its a lovely piece of kit
the pelta is a standard thermal jacket with 3 pockets on the back and wind resistant material on the arms chest and shoulder and a lighter material on the back to prevent over heating

bazzamac · 10-09-2014 5:27pm

Pelta it is then.cheers

I am not gonna get a spreadsheet going just yet as I wanna see what way Dav wants to approach payments.
Whether you only post what you want after you have paid or whatever.
And also a cut off date will be decided as well.

Inquitus · 14-09-2014 10:17pm

Will the padding be the same as on the Summer order? The kit was fantastic, but the unique pad, my arse, my saddle combo hasn't worked for me to date.

Change your saddle!?!

bcmf · 14-09-2014 11:01pm

I will see if there is an alternative in the chammy.
You looking for full tights or 3/4s?

the first order had a chamois that was a more race orientated the second order had what Verge called an endurance chamois so more orientated at the sportive rider that could be spending 6 hours in the saddle

if you want to change back to the original chamois thats no problem but it would have to be what the majority want I understand that some people may love the first or second one or be happy with both so its a fine line in deciding

MugMugs · 15-09-2014 9:20am

Any images on the MTB jersey yet ?

marcofan · 15-09-2014 9:31am

the mtb jersey will look the same as the road jersey minus the rear pockets with a baggier cut obviously

I was party to the first order. Which Chammy is currently flavour of the month for this order? the first (race) or second (endurance)? Tnx a mil.

Full tights. But I think Marco has addressed the issue and it depends which Chammy is favoured for this order.

bcmf · 15-09-2014 10:46am

Well can we get someone who has both sets of chammies to weigh in.

My thoughts would be that since its a winter order the chance of spending 6hrs in the saddle during any one winter spin would be low.

Howdee

i'm a little late to the thread here, I've skimmed through the last 5 pages and i'm a tad confused

Are you taking orders at the moment or are you waiting on finalised prices before doing so?

bcmf · 15-09-2014 11:37am

Prices are finalised and are as per the last page or so (depending in if your on mobile or computer)
Just waiting on the legend that is Dav to finalise payment details before taking orders.

Just pledge to pay on time, I think thats how it works around here! :P

I like the jersey design but I thought it wouldve been cool to make the MTB jersey a bit funkier looking and less like a race jersey. Maybe too late now and thats cool, maybe in the next design if there's interest?

Couldn't really tell the difference.

marcofan · 16-09-2014 3:06pm

give me a rough idea of what you want for a "funkier" design for an mtb jersey and i will get the lads to do one up

i hope there is more than 1 person going to order the mtb jersey!!!

What about a nice gold/flesh tone panel at the base? That would be pretty funky.

I'm no expert but I was thinking something along the lines of below with Boards colouring perhaps?

prod109265_Yellow_NE_01

template_sample?$detail$&$id=prod119223_Black%20-%20Red_NE_01&$offerhide=1&$promohide=1&locale=en

Obviously it comes down to cost and demand, I have no idea how easy or hard it is to come up with a design so I'm in no position to dictate, but you have a buyer here for sure. Maybe others can chip in with ideas?

Nice looking kit... only you better bring some masking tape if you wear it in France.

petethedrummer · 17-09-2014 2:03pm

feminine noun? FEMININE?? Further evidence of society's drive to emasculate the male. I am outraged.

meh considering my local french baker keeps selling me batards .....

i wouldnt worry

vertigo1976 · 22-09-2014 10:01pm

For what it's worth, I did the Rugby Legends Mizen to Malin cycle a week ago and Verge supplied the kit. Top notch stuff for the price. No complaints with the endurance chamois. It was at least as comfy as my regular Santini or Castelli kit. We were doing 90-160km days.

Just my 2c

bcmf · 24-09-2014 11:53am

Can those of you interested in the MTB Jersey drop me a pm with your email and I will forward on designs.
