Context: this vest went on sale for 15€ and I bought two sizes: S and M
Use: I am looking to add some layers to use when the weather starts to get a bit dark and cold (high-viz. also a plus for safety). I get told that things should fit tight, “racing fit”, but there are multiple degrees of tightness and I do not understand which one is best.
I don’t feel that my movement is restricted significantly with the smaller one, but looks perhaps too small to me. Proabably I could make both of them work if I wanted.
The medium is too big for you, it’s bunching up when you’re moving, and that’s with you standing. Will be a lot worse when you’re in position on the bike.
A lot of people forget that it’s all about how it fits when you’re on the bike vs standing
Anybody else sick of these “not sure how to dress myself” type posts? Like seriously
If it ain’t tight it ain’t right
You shouldn’t hear it unless it’s unzipped.
Imo they’re both too large for you actually. You don’t want it flapping around when riding, and I can’t see the S won’t.
