Strengths: Great fit, colors stay strong, very breathable and easy to wear all day during the summer, fall, and spring (and winter depending on where you live!)
Weaknesses: I have not found any yet, it is very comfortable has has not suffered any snags or tears yet. Make sure if it is very cold outside to pair this with a base layer like Royal's membrane Jersey. It is lightweight so that will keep you nice and warm.
Bottom Line:
If you are looking for an inexpensive, comfortable, and good looking ride jersey take a look at anything Royal makes. They are very durable (no snags or tears through dozens of rides, and a few crashes), and the color still looks as good as the day I got it. It is wearable pretty much year round with the right layers, and fits comfortable under a good soft shell too. Great product!
