P120
The trade-off for the reduced padding
is the Apex suit is extremely light—on my
bathroom scales the suit weighs just 10.2
pounds.
The Apex is old school in that it comes
with a fixed breathable cotton lining, but
it only reaches as far as the knees and
shoulders. On the bike this is no problem
if you wear a compression suit under your
leathers, but getting in and out of the suit
can be annoying because the stitching at
the bottom of the legs always catches my
toes and I must fold the bottom of the suit
up to get my feet through, rather than just
slide into it. First-world problems, I grant
(Above) By the
fifth wear, the
Apex suit really
started to feel
good (it could
also be the weight
loss program
Rennie was on).
(Right) Triple
stitching at the
tops of the legs/
butt can be a little
fragile. (Bottom)
Neoprene lining
on the wrists and
collar is a nice
touch many more
expensive suits
don't have.
