    I really like the one I have as well. It's good for running too. (It was perfect for bike commuting to a group run in really hot weather a few weeks ago.)

    A couple of comments:

    - Size is small- I'm normally a medium and had to send it back and get a large (mine is last year's model, I'm assuming the sizing hasn't changed).

    - Coverage is less than a typical cycling jersey- so if you're going to be self-conscious about wearing less than the standard run of the mill jersey, this isn't the right top.

    I bought the Clincher this year, because of the "padded" cups. Generally, i don't like shelf bras or even sports bras because I need the molded cups so i don't look totally flat chested. But, I don't like the Clincher. The pockets are nice, but the neck/halter piece starts looking kind of funny by the end of my ride. It sort of rides up and is sitting higher up on my neck and I look like it's strangling me. I wore it on a long hot ride last week and I probably won't wear it again.
    My Hind sport bras with molded padded cups are falling apart. I have bought 2 other types advertised as molded cups that turned out to have no padding. I guess I should actually go to a store instead of buying on the Internet.

    Robyn, have you tried the Champion Shape series bras? They have moulded cups/a little padding and look like they'd be cute on (haven't personally tried them on -- I've never really considered padded sports bras because of the heat factor). Also Moving Comfort makes one with light padding -- I think it's called the Cameo bra but I could be wrong...

    Liza, I looked at the Champion bras on some underwear web site. There were a few with the "Shape" name in them, but some had underwire and a couple looked like they were not really sports bras. I don't need compression! Is there a particular model you are talking about?
