Hoping for some wisdom from the bikers in here. I’ve just bought a 125 and going to start commuting to work (4 miles, all city). I spent a lot of time on my dads bikes as a kid in ordinary jeans and an armour free wax jacket. My dad is still riding bikes in day to day clothes. My bro rides a bike and has told me to buy the most expensive kit I can afford. Trouble is, I’m cheap!
I’m hoping to sit somewhere between the two, id like to get a jacket for under £100 and decent armoured jeans for a similar price (if not cheaper).
I suspect that at this budget there is probably some very decent stuff, but probably some total shit too. I’m looking for brand recommendations (ideally I want to go and fetch it from a bike shop in Newcastle so I don’t have to wait for delivery).
What brands would you trust to have decent gear at this sort of price?
Thanks in advance!
