Spring cleaning part II. Need to make room for ahem, new things on the bike clothing shelves. As with the saddles, prices are negotiable so don’t hesitate to ask if you really want the jersey and think $10 + shipping isn’t a fair price ;).
1) Tifosi Forza F/C, matte black frame, a/c red fototec lens, with hard case and cleaning bag. $45 including shipping (retails for $60, not including shipping). These are brand new. I have never worn them, just tried them on in front of my mirror twice. I threw away the packaging before deciding that I wasn’t crazy about the matte finish (would prefer glossy). They’ve been stored in the case, so no scratches anywhere. The tint in the fototec lenses is responsive to the light conditions, admitting between 12% and 35% of light. I have a different pair of Tifosi’s with these lenses that I like very much. (F/C stands for “full coverage”; this style has a lens that wraps around a little bit further than the standard Forza).

2) Pearl Izumi Select Jersey, size small. $15 including shipping.
I bought this last year, it has been worn/washed multiple times but is in good shape (no pilling/fading/stains etc). I want to get rid of it because it is too short for me (annoyingly flashes belly sometimes if I’m not vigilant and/or wearing lower-rise shorts). Otherwise, it actually fits very well; I’m 5’6”, 34A, usually a size 4. It is the color pictured in the link; a great red. Might be a really nice fit for someone with a shorter torso.

3) Terry knicker, size M. $25 including shipping. These are too big for me. I have only worn them a couple of times (2-4), and they look new. I bought them on sale at EMS last fall, and they are an older model, I’m not sure what year. While they are the more expensive Terry knicker style, please note that the chamois on this older style is not as nice as the current Terry chamois. It is a fairly large piece of single-density (as far as I can tell) perforated grey foam. It is fairly protective but for me at least, doesn’t fit as well as the newer flex air chamois (part of that is that the knickers are too big though, so the chamois is also too big for me). These are nicely cut. Update: knickers have been sold.
