Just been browsing on Amazon and came across this:

Very clever copying of the Rapha and Castelli designs just much cheaper! Sure they're from China and fall apart after the first ride but they look ok (From a distance). Thinking of ordering one of the Jerseys but wondering if anyone has any experience of the Sizes?

A 28 quid Gabba... wonder how well that performs?

Agree on the Torm stuff. Not quite as good as Rapha (not as fine a knit and not quite as soft) but half the price. The missus has a LS one and it's wearing well

Perhaps I'm more cynical, but it looks for all the world to me as if someone's just Photoshopped different logos over the originals on Castelli's stock Gabba picture. It would certainly be easier than lighting and photographing your own product. (Assuming you actually had a product and weren't scamming...)

Everything looks photoshopped to me.
