Hey Peeps,

Looking at getting a one piece around size 54. Problem is I have tried on a couple and am finding them too short in the body.. i'm 6'0 and have seen friends (squiddyy) wearing 54's yet they are taller than me and seem to fit. Can anyone tell me how much I can expect a suit to stretch?, i'm not really interested in having a permanent camel toe but going to a 56 sees me swimming in it as i'm only 85kg.
Do I go the 54 and hope for good stretch, or go the 56 and have Kerry on K'Rd give me a crap load of plastic surgery? thinking Berik suit

Cheers in advance

They'll stretch from "too tight", to fitting like a glove, and not much more.

Go custom made.

That pretty much sums it up. You are shelling out a lot of $$$, I imagine, so DON'T compromise on fit & comfort.

Leather suit should be too tight when standing, and perfect fit when you're on the bike.

I always wondered why bike racers have a hunchback posture. Now I know, the suite is tight when standing...

Yeah plus you want a little give around the middle for a back protector to fit in.
