    1pc or 2pc? and sizing

    What do you use? Have you tried both and prefer one more then the other?
    Also, I'm not a standard shape. I'm 6'3" but only 165lbs. Does anyone else come close to this shape and if so what brand/size are you using?

    I'm 6' 3" 200 lbs and I bought a Rhino 1 pc 2XL. Its a bit big for me around the bottom, but its the right length and its tough to beat the price. Unfortunately unless you pay a premium your not going to get a perfect fit with your build.

    Re: 1pc or 2pc? and sizing

    Had a 2 piece last year and bough a 1 piece this year...and so far my one piece is great!
    Its a little less pratical, but I like the feel better on the bike...I have a A* MX-1 (little spendy, but worth it! http://www.nestreetriders.com/forum/...race-suit.html)

    In terms of sizing. I can tell you that A* is a tighter euro style fit, but true to size, Joe Rocket suits and jackets are on teh baggy size, and Tecknic run about a size small comapred to other majoy brands.
    Thats the extent of my suit knowledge!

    Re: 1pc or 2pc? and sizing

    i'm a lil over 6' and 165lbs....and suits dont really fit me right. I've been buying size 44 and that seems to be ok but its big around the mid-section. It is possible to have them taken in however.

    I started off with a 2pc suit and just bought a 1pc....I never took the jacket off of the pants so it just defeated the purpose for what I was using it for. The jackets typically are really short so they dont work very well to use without the pants.
