First Impressions- Very good quality. I have tried on a few dainese jackets and taichi is up there if not better. Leather and seams look beautiful. The carbon on the gloves look gorgeous aswell.
The jacket fits perfect, it has like an athletic fit. It's a jap M which is about the same as a us 38. It's made out of perferated leather and comes with a windstop liner. It is not as stiff as normal leather jackets. It fits snug but, I can move my arms pretty freely. Gloves are pre-curved and are pretty snug. I hope they will stretch alittle.
Overall great products and company. I would like to thank Diego from CycleSector for getting me these products and hooking it up.
Thanks for posting this up. The GMX Motion is an amazing jacket; like you said it feels so flexible and soft right off the rack and feels like it just hugs your body. The windstop liner is great for cooler weather but when you take it out you get so much ventilation. This is one jacket that you just have to put on to really understand the fascination and the quality compared to other jackets.
RS-Taichi is still pretty exclusive and relatively unknown, but this brand is fukin awesome. I won't wear any other brand again. Thanks again!

On a side note, the windstop liner does make a world of difference. With it in, you feel little to no cold/wind. With it out, it feels like you are wearing only a T-shirt. It is amazing how well that liner works.
Hehe yep! I've actually ordered 3 of those jackets for myself. The first one was the red model, and I think I wore it once before someone wanted to buy it. The second one was black and I didn't even get to wear it before someone came in and bought it. The third was another black one but I wont sell it anymore. The thing is that I hang it on the rack in the store so people come in and assume its for sale

I love RS Taichi! I can attest to their quality as well. I have used their stuff on and off the track for the past 7 years now. I agree - it would be difficult for me to find another brand that I trust to hold up to the rigors of everyday commuting and trackday use.
I just ordered a pair of RS-TAICHI EVO GP gloves from Diego at Cycle Sector. I've heard good things and can't wait to play around with these on my deployment. It gives me something to look forwward to. Thanks Diego! Mike.
