They're actually Tiger Angel. I have a Lynx 2 Sprint suit which I got tailormade from the money from my insurance payout. They are heavy construction and very well made. They weigh in at 5.5kg. Customer service is excellent. :thumb: I find them a bit constricting at times, especially if I wear a couple of layers underneath but they still need some breaking in I think. The fit is snug but you can specify how tight a fit you would like. If you want to wear warm clothes underneath I'd specify loose. Here's a pic when they were new.

Do they have good customer service even from a customer the U.S.? How do they fit? I'm looking for a suit for track days and on the road too, so any help would be great.
What was I thinking? :O If you have any more questions ask away.Sorry must have been typing to fast. I like your suit, it looks good! Well I probably will wear them on the road more than on the track, so it will need to be big enough for a sweatshirt and long underwear, and comfortable for the long trips. But how cool are you on the hot days? And how does it hold up in the weather (rain). And my wife thinks the leathers look good with the bike. :idunno: I belong to a M/C, do they make logo's and graphics there or do you have to get them done yourself? I have more questions I just can't think of them right now at 4 am!!RPinOZ said:They're actually Tiger Angel.

On hot days I'm OK as long as I'm moving. There are diagonal chest pockets and the linings are mesh so if you open them you get a nice thru breeze. In the rain they are like most leathers ie not waterproof so I carry a one-piece nylon condom in my tail. But Tiger Angel do make a set of waterproof leathers designed for touring and everyday stuff. Check out the Guardian suits on their site. They don't look racey and they don't take knee-pucks but they are waterproof and you can machine wash them which actually re-proofs them. :thumb: I've heard nothing but good about them.bladerider954 said:

I graduated to that from the training wheelsMACI4LIFE said:
:hmm: the problems you mention don't gel with my experience of them. I've only bought the one suit from them so I don't have direct experience of the consistency of build quality but the build quality of mine is great and I didn't hear anything to suggest otherwise when I asked around pre-purchase.redcliffs said:

Well that's good to hear (about the suit, sorry about your get off) I was wondering about any warranty work that could be done in the U.S. And with the comments I've heard about them from everyone (and I still want to read more) I've made up my mind to order a set, but that will have to wait till winter ($). How long did it take you to recive your order? Which ones did you get? My next goal is to finger out which style to choose.......... :huh: :idunno:Reckless929 said:
It took around 4-6 weeks to get and I bought the one piece sprint suit.bladerider954 said:
As stated by some other members, this kind of service is definately not what most experience from Tiger Angel. I've bought jacket, and custom made pants, as well as having various other dealings with them. My mate has also bought a custom suit and it arrived perfect. They go the extra mile for alterations, if if they are the BUYERS fault, all above and beyond the normal customer service.redcliffs said:
