They're not without their flaws, but they punch well above their price point.
Now that I've logged about 50+ hours in this kit I feel I'm finally ready to review it. Note: this review is largely copy and pasted from a review I did of one of their other kits (these are better than their others and I liked those).First, the fit. I was 5'9" @ 190lbs and picked up a XL since the bibs seem to run about a size small based on their fit chart. I'm now down to 175lbs. The bibs fit quite well at 190lbs with a bit of a compression fit; at 17lbs they're more of a 'standard' fit. The jersey is sized much better than their other offerings though it does still fit a bit loose (felt like a club fit at 190 and now feels even looser). My biggest complaint with their other kit was the grippers on both the legs and the arms; not so with these. The bibs have a nice wide laser cut gripper (much more comfortable) instead of a band and jersey doesn't have sleeve grippers at all (fine by me). Like their others, the actual waist on the shorts is quite high (covering my belly button). I doesn't bother me, but I can see how other people might not like it.For quality, the fabric seems just as thick as some of my more expensive kit. They don't have any issues with being transparent. They feel soft. Overall, they feel on par with bibs and jerseys that cost the same for just one piece. My concern is the stitching and their long term durability. First, it's not flatlock, so it can dig in a little. Second, it seems like its the sketchiest bit. That said, at this cost if they only last one or two seasons, it's not the end of the world at this price point. I have had the threads pull on both sides of the pad where the seams press into the saddle. A quick mend with some hand sewing has stopped it from getting worse.Finally, there's how comfortable it is on the bike. I know this largely personal, but here's my impression. My favorite bibs are a pair of gen 1 Castelli body paint shorts. Now, I'm not trying to say these are comparable, but they get surprisingly close relative to their price--the Castelli's are nearly 5x the cost for just bibs. Like the Castelli's, I have shorts that are more comfortable on short rides, but on medium or long rides is where these shine for comfort. These have replaced their other offering as my #2 most comfortable; and between the comfort and the design, they're my overall favorite kit.Overall, I'm super happy with them. They're not without their flaws, but they punch well above their price point. Wouldn't think twice of picking up another pair in a different design.

Shorts are see thru. Kinda a deal breaker.
Shorts are see thru. Kinda a deal breaker. This is the white set with black lines. It's too bad they didn't just use black material on the butt, cuz this kit looks sharp but I don't need a ticket for indecent exposure

Great design, fit is ok,the zipper needs alot of work. (UPDATED) went up a size everything is ok now.
I got this set today 3/24/2018 and immediately tried it on. The first attempt went well! Everything fit just right. The elastic band around the bicep was overly snug bit nothing I couldn't deal with. I took off the Jersey to check pockets and colors. The second attempt the zipper just wouldn't zip anymore. I took off the Jersey and tried to zip it while it was off and the teeth wouldn't interlink. The Zipper was destroyed after two or 3 zips. Returning it to Amazon. I hope Coconut Ropamo reads these and addresses the problems.UPDATE:Coconut Ropamano reached out to me and offered to send me a new set of gear. I asked them to send me a 4xl Jersey and an xxl bib short. They sent both and so far both have been very good. The zipper still feels a bit off, but the 4xl is more than large enough so that there isn't any real stress on the zipper itself. Other than some sketchy stitching the jersey and bib short feel good. The 4xl is an ok fit, I'd have preferred something a bit more snug, but I am a bit barrel chested with a bit of extra around the midsection. So with my body type that kind of club/sport fit is hard to find. The 4xl is a good compromise until I drop down back to 265. I've tested out the shorts and jersey on an indoor trainer and I have taken the jersey on and off several times with no real hiccups. Here is my personal take away, Coconut Ropamano should have an option to order different sized jersey and bib short sets. 3xl jersey with a 1xl or 2xl short. If I had gotten a 4xl set, the shorts and jersey would have been 4xl and the shorts would have been way to big. Otherwise the set is good. Very breathable., and I'm a big fan of the design. (so much that I've ordered another 2 jersey's at 4xl).

Good value overall, just be mindful of the weak zipper
Considering its low price, I think this was an acceptable value and I do plan on ordering other colorways in the future from this same brand. A size "L" was appropriate for 5' 11",185 lbs, 32" waist, broad shoulders and thick quads. Typically most Chinese brands I have encountered need their sizes scaled to XL or XXL to fit me, but in this case, "L" was spot on.The jersey's color printing is crisp and vibrant, and all the seams seem stitched well with proper finishing. Inspecting the garment overall, I think the only potential weakness is the jersey's zipper. Both the teeth and pull are plastic, so I would expect a failure if tugged on too aggressively. I use two hands, and so far, so good.The bib's straps are a bit thin, but still comfortable. The seat padding was more than adequate for a quick 25 mile test ride. I am unsure if there are any anti-microbial properties to the materials used in the padding, although in context of this price point I would not downgrade my rating if it has none.Correct size, reasonable quality, fair price, good value for a casual user. If the jersey set passes 500 miles without any major failures, I'll likely load up on more of these instead of continuing to roll the dice on other Chinese import brands.

Follow size instructions...poor quality
If you follow the starting instructions you will have no problem with it fitting correctly.UPDATE: after 3 uses and 1 wash, all of the stitching is coming apart everywhere...

Wear everyday
Wear almost everyday since buying it 3 weeks ago. A 15 minute wash in the machine and it's ready for the next day. I'm 6ft tall and broad shouldered so I got the XL and it fits well. Quite happy with it.
