I think I had prices the same for Long Sleeves normal and Aero with short sleeves -- so no difference.
Ok are we going through the ordering process again? The sizing is different for this brand?
I’ll grab a sizing chart, prices are about the same (I’ll cover anything extra).
CS Tech (long sleeves), Air (short sleeves) and Air Pro (aero cut) jerseys all have the same size chart. They're just different fabrics:

So basically the same sizing as the first jersey, right? IIRC the sizes were quite quite small, so you needed to go up at least one size ..
Well yes and no.
If you got a club cut last time it’s more relaxed than the Race cut chart. I didn’t order a Race cut last time, just a size smaller in a club cut.
So if you got a club cut last time perhaps go a size up in this race cut if you’re unsure? Again long sleeves will be unchanged.
I got a race cut last time, so I assume the sizing of that is same as Air Pro. I'll have to have a look, but I'm pretty sure I went XXL, which was pretty much perfect (normally wear L or XL depending upon manufacturer).
Got an L in Race cut last time and it is [i]tight[/i]! On the plus side, I have also dropped 5kg in the last six months, so it's fitting just nicely. The only issue I really had with it is the length, would be great if it was about 20mm longer. The jersey that is.
And while speaking of sizing...who the actual f still talks in fractions of inches anymore?? Seriously, can't they give us CM and MM to go by?
As to pricing, I am assuming the Air version will be $80 and the Air Pro $100?
Yeah that’s right.
Length is a funny thing. I’ve got an Odlo jersey in L and I could almost pull it to my knees, where anything Specialized makes in an M just gets to my belly button.
I remember trying both the race and club cut last year and thinking the race was too short but now it’s the shortness I’d look for.
I can still just get a CS-Tech Club cut if anyone wanted one.
OK gents, Rolo has been busy so I have the samples XS, S, M, L.
I'll post up some Paris Runway like photo's tonight with real measurements :) I'd suggest your measure your biceps, waist and chest at their largest, and compare against my details this evening for best fit.
Some sizing details to help...
Me, 175cm/73kg.
Bicep 15cm unflexed
Chest 105cm at widest point
Waist 88cm at widest point
I have been sent:
3 x Air Lite (Phantoms), S M L
1 x Helium (Blue), XS
Want more details, just ask...
sz S Air Light, probably a fraction too small for my specs, but could still wear it, little room around belly button line.
sz M Air light, my best fit, but some baggy side as can be seen,
sz L Air Light, starting to get loose around shoulder a little, and a couple of loose inches around belly button line, on sides. Still reasonably snug around chest but not uncomfy.
sz L arm, the Air Lights arms are ALL very stretchy with decent length, no nasty elastic, the L gets baggier at the top as shown.
sz XS Helium, I'd class as a summer race jersey, thin, very breathable, very stretchy yet still comfy, great long comfy arms that will never slide up and cut into the armpits.
One for the racer, aero fiends. Nothing earth shattering over the Air Light. I might get this dependent on price purely 'cause I like long sleeves.
Hey I just bought an Essendon bike from the AFL shop.
It had no seat, is that right?
And oh, the bell makes no sound no matter how many times I ring it!
How does one improve their cyclist tan with extra long sleeves?!
Dunno why they sent you a 'Helium' it was supposed to be a 'Razor Carbon' but whatever. Thanks for your effort with the pics.
I'll wait until tomorrow night for anyone to post final changes, then it's ordering time.
G4T, could you post a pic of you in current Blitz jersey, for visual comparison? And also what size it is…?
Cheers.

Sure will do tonight.
Love the look of the Razor Carbon.
…you’d want to for the price

BB medium race cut below feels very similar to the sz S Air Light above which 18" armpit to armpit.
I find CS's jersey sizing models quite confusing, all of the Yellow Phantom Air Light jerseys above are this variant.
Oops forgot about this. What am I supposed to do again? Reorder, using the new CS sizing chart? Is there an ordering link somewhere?
Your order stands. Just let me know if you want to change size. If you ordered a short sleeve jersey then you’ll need to refer to Chanpion System’s ‘race cut’ sizing chart. Posted a link in this thread earlier.
