Hi, I managed to fall off my mountain bike today and in doing do ripped my leggings and jacket open.
Can anyone recommend any online MTB clothing retailers so that I can kit myself up again. The only proviso is I'm a hobbyist MTB'er so not looking to spend hundreds for each garment. Maybe £100-£200 for the whole outfit.

I bought a pair of these trousers from e-bay £24. They have excellent removable knee-pads that are fine for wearing all the time. They are also made of rip-stop fabric so pretty tough, loads of pockets and more or less water-proof.

I also bought a Gore-Tex army camouflage jacket for £50 again excellent quality and water-proof

The Shorts I ordered (Arsuxeo MTB) are Summer weight and not Endura /Madison quality and will lose the fight with Brambles

Tops are as good as my others plus a big range of designs and colours rather than the usual darker plain stuff
Their size guides were OK for me

Only downside was slow delivery on my order, 10 - 12 days

Some bargains here
https://www.sportpursuit.com/sales/alpinestars-202...

However I think best value is Endura stuff which is often on sale.. Lasts forever, particularly the shorts
