    That would be great. Any special time or day? Do you know what time does he close?

    I've just bought this high-end chinese moto-boy set;) They have size for 195cm high troll. Bit too serious for my 150ccm. I will try to write a review after holidays.

    Looks like a decent kit, despite the funny MotoBoy brand! Looking forward to your review!

    The text of the taobao ad says it has three layers -- the exterior shell, said to be water resistant, an inner shell, said to be waterproof but breathable (some gore-tex type textile), and a third layer of cotton for warmth. That's a very nice package.

    Couple questions:
    --do the pants zip into the jacket? this is absolutely crucial, as it can keep the pants on your legs in the case of a getoff, rather than sliding off your body. Be sure to zip together EVERY time you ride.
    --are there pockets inside the waterproof liner or are pockets only in the outer shell?

    thanks!

    Yes, it has 3 layers and they told me it's totally waterproof because of the second layer. The outer layer has to many pockets actually, something like 17, it ill be hard to fing the wallet, but the waterproof layer has no pocket and there is a tiny pocket in the cotton layer, i guess too small for the smartphone.
    There is a small zip connecting pants and jacket on the back.
    It feels nice and tight;) compared with that SCOYCO jacket that felt loose like a potato bag a bit. There was some other model with crodura parts ( I have no idea what that exactly is, but my friend told me I should find a jacket with this thing) I can't find a label with material used in this model but as it is the last 2011 model I hope they used it. I will write more soon:)

    I've just got myself this jacket! Still no pants, think I'll give up finding any pants here. Will get some pants/boots when I go back to Europe for holiday.

    Ok, these Motoboy pants are too short for 195cm tall person. About the quality, it looks really nice, many pockets, straps, vents. Its waterproof. I made a proper testing last holidays, I had a slide under bike, with 5km/h speed on a mud. Still fast enough to wipe off half of the ball at the end of clutch handle. I got just a tiny hole on my jackets sleeve. I thought its a really nice gear, but last weekend a hole melted on my pants because of engine temperature.

    I always prefer to wear all safety tools during riding bike and you should use all safety tools which can protect against any injury. It is save me every-time, when i fall down from the bike. Please let me know that which type of protection do use during ride the bike?
