Teknic 1-piece suits on closeout.

$249 for an $800.00 suit. FYI for anyone looking.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiice. Was thinking about a track day here soon. What does a halfway decent (noob) track suit usually go for?

Thats a super hot deal. Too bad they dont have my size and I don't want to buy one size bigger suit coz it won't fit me and I am also losing weight…

Why does this happen to me??? Aarghhhhh

My issue is idk how many track days I'll do next season. Likely not any more this season, but maybe 2 or 3 next season? Idk. I wouldn't wear it on the street though because well, this is Ohio...

But they have green!!!!!!

AFAIK, there are no tracks in Missouri, yet I want a 2 piece suit. I always wanted the teknic violator. They have it but not in my size….

I was just about to buy one but realized that the suits are not-perforated. Missouri heat will fry me in this suit. I'd rather pay more for the perforated version.

oh I'm SSOOOOO tempted. But I guess suits go on sale at the end of every season right? So I'll see how much id use it next season and go from there.

This winter i got my eyes on a new road bike, which is gonna make me faster, not only because it's super light and rigid compared to my aluminum Dawes 1000, (I'm eyeing a Specialized Tarmac Apex mid-compact) but because my wallet will be lighter as well

My thoughts exactly. I bought one from RevZilla last year but decided I didn't need it, it was double the price. Such a good deal!

After getting shut out of my first and second choices I was able to get one of the 2-piece suits @ $249+tax. I got one that is silver red and black in 44. If I find it doesnt fit, I'll offer it up for sale on here.

Well I guess it was too good to be true. My order went through fine, and then late last night I get an email from STG saying that the suit is unavailable and not in stock.

So after a few emails back and forth trying to work out a deal on a different suit, I decided to cut my loss and get a full refund.

The search for a well priced beginner (or 2nd hand) suit continues!

RedGeneral, pm sowega and ask him about prices and sizing on SS suits. Those twist of fate 2.0 leather suits are nice, and he is sponsored by them, so he gets good deals.

Same story with my order. In talking with the sales guys it seems that the ordering system could not deduct from the inventory so many extras of each were sold.

For 2 Piece suits:

Are the jackets typically shorter than normal jackets because it seems shorter/stubbier than the 1 piece suit (same suit, 1 piece).
