    Spyke Leathers any good?

    I'm in the market for a warm weather textile suit (ala Roadcrafter) and was poking around some of the used leather sites and found these:

    http://www.leatherexchange.com/spyke-leathers.htm

    Dunno much about them, but they sure do look like nice suits, anyone know if they're worth what's being asked? Anyway, thought someone might find it interesting. Me, I'm holding out for something non-cow since I a) wanna be able to commute in it, b) want something for the hot summer months (they are coming...right? right?), and c) don't really do track days, at least not yet. If anyone sees a good deal on a textile oversuit that'd fit someone about 6'1, 175 lbs, do let me know. I'm still kicking myself for missing out on a beautiful condition 42long roadcrafter that ended up going for $350 on Ebay a few months ago...it even matched my bike

    The only "intuitive" interface is the nipple.

    Spyke is good shit

    One of our sponsors sells Spyke stuff, and he swears by them. He also races in a Spyke suit.
