As it seems Disco from CycleSector is hooking a few of us up and we are all starting threads raving about how much we love our new gear I thought we should have one "Official Thread."
So here is the start. I have the NXL-300 in Red and also purchased the GMX Motion Jacket. Pics of that are coming soon.
The suit is a 54/44. I am 5'-11" and as of this morning 173 Lbs with a 32"-33" waist and a 32" inseam. Round the chest I came up with 40".
Cool, is there armour in the knee area Disco? wes600rr? I ordered the 54/44 too in gunmetal but I'm only 5'7, and a couple more lbs. Hope it's as nice as you say! ummm new gear, no stink lol.

There is armor in the Knee, Shoulder, and Elbow. The standard back insert is foam and extends almost to the bottom of my tail bone.
Yo D, I just wanna congratulate you on your (continuing) success selling the brand. I remember when you told me you were really trying to make RS Taichi as popular as other brands here in the US, and you're well on your way homie.
I can honestly say CycleSector will have my support (read: Money) for a looooooonnnnng time. By the way, I'll be calling Tuesday to place those orders I need.

Also i want to say that disco has been great so far to deal with, answered all the question i had and made sure that the suit will fit me perfectly since my body type seems to be a little bit off, anyway here is one to Disco :beer:

Dude, your suit is gonna kick ass. I also can't wait to see it (and maybe take a test ride in it, hehe jk). I hope it comes in soon.
Unfortunately not off the rack. You would have to get a custom suit. PM me if you are interested.
Custom=$$$....I might just have to stick with my generic Teknic Chican for now. Plus I seriously need to loose weight and would hate to be fitted to a suit right now.
Disco, i like that silver/white one your rocking a lot. that was the color i was going to go with when i got my A* Suit. If i didn't already have a suit at a great price from last year i would buy one for sure.
Also if i give you a list of things that i'm going to need in the near future can you give me details of whether u can get it and the price?

BTW...Wes, that is a bad ass picture great lighting with good depth of field.
Thank you man. I have been working on my photography a lot. That picture puts a smile on my face every time I look at it.
With a crappy weather weekend I hope I get a chance to go to the studio this weekend and take some better inside shots. Hey Diego. You want to load up the car with some Taichi goodies and meet me in Carlsbad for a photo shoot?
I'd love to see a writeup/review of the GMX motion jacket. Thanks for the pics guys!
Edit: Whoops, didn't see Slaps other thread.
Yeah. I was hoping he would move that over seeing how that is such a great write up on the jacket. I am going to work on pictures of the jacket today...
i found something that caught my eye after getting intrested in taichi suits...
before i heard of this brand here and there, but didnt think much of it,
then late at night, i was looking over some old gp videos, and i ran a search for daijiro kato, and was watching one of his videos...
wat i noticed was, he was wearing a RS-TAICHI suit! - just another reason for me to get a taichi suit lol...
if someone like him would trust rs-taichi, i would do just the same, and over the years, the suits have developed a lot..
check out the vid, stop it at 0:26, after the scene at the podium, hes the one in the red suit,
also at 0:39, holding the cup.. if u look carefully theres more scenes throughout his career where hes wearing an rs-taichi suit. http://youtube.com/watch?v=OYkoixyrKso
would have been great to see him compete against rossi and possibly take the GP title one day, RIP #74.
It's official boys and girls...I'm joining the RS-Taichi suit club!! Just placed my order for the NXL300 in gunmetal today and should be receiving it in about 2-3 weeks!! Holy crap I'm excited...I'll post pics when it arrives! Thanks Diego!!!!!
