I had a chance to use the "Rapha" kit. Went for a < 2 hour, 32 kms ride yesterday with my buddies. *Sorry for the size of my pictures*.

Jersey:
- Soft, thick material: kept me warm actually as it started to drizzle later afternoon
- Doesn't breath as well (when it gets warm)
- Zipper was great (zips up/down easily)
- Felt great on my shoulders and across my chest
- 3 cargo pockets (holds things well, just not as roomy)
- Loving the multi-colours ..hahaha

Bib Shorts:
- Bib Pad: soft/thick (kept my rear end comfortable >> haven't tested in a longer ride)
- Straps: comfortable on my shoulders and stretches well
- Felt fine on my legs and I didn't use any chamois cream
- Some of the stitchings inside were a bit loose
- The blue coloured part rubbed off on my saddle (3rd picture)...guess when I started to sweat .

Overall: not a bad kit for the price, would definitely order another kit from these guys.
