    That's GBP. Closer to $NZ40. Then you have to add freight.

    I begin to understand why you require special earphones?

    My EDZ was nearer one hundred bucks, but I have had it some seven years now.

    While there is very little to them, they ain't cheap.

    Now this sounds more like it.

    Knox also seems to make some "Coldkiller" gear that I need to check out.

    Probably both look better on you than they would on the OP?

    Think about this for a moment

    There is plenty of well documented examples of Female chests on the Internet

    You are going to risk the potential eternal brain scarring image of seeing my Fat Hairy Moobs in order to get a look at the OP's tits.

    I personally wouldn't risk it...


    and I look at my chest everyday

    Start off with a one piece bike specific undersuit, I use a Revit one myself under my leathers. Add one or two Icebreaker merino layers as required, depending on the ambient of the day. Then I use a bikers' balaclava with the windproof front section to stop wind getting into the suit around the neck, and I admit to wearing this even on warm or hot days. Only in winter do I have to resort to adding either a thermal t-shirt or singlet to keep my temperature in the comfy range.

    Yeah I tried the windproof front suits, don't work too well and they don't breathe very well so they quickly feel uncomfy, to me anyway.

    As mentioned by others, layering with natural fibres is the key.
