yes! But just what is the perfect shape? I've met you and I'd call you Perfectly Shaped!!

with my implants my measurements are 34-25-34. (I requested the doctor to make me proportional) and still the cycling stuff doesn't fit me. With my implants I'm a 34 B/c. to be honest I find that when I find tops that are small enough for the rest of me, that the chest is too tight. I have looong arms and legs. My arms are freakishly skinny.

I was looking for jeans yesterday and today. I should wear a 2 or 3 Long/tall. At one store the 3's were all too tight to button. At Gap, the 2's were too big. Most of the jeans that came close to fitting were too big in the bum and waist and too tight in the thighs (cycling thighs)

Ok, probably one of my problems is looking for bargains.

I did find some tights at D*ck's, their store brand, activa, that are nice and long. They are not cycling specific but they are workable.

Mr. SR500, I'll check out the assos and thorn, I'll check out the Boure tights.
