I have a healthy dose of Pactimo stuff in my closet (standard stuff, not team custom). I like the fit of their Summit "Aero" jersey a lot. The bibs are decent, but nothing special. I really like the vest, jacket, and LS thermal jersey.

My team/club uses Voler. It's okay, but there's always some little thing that isn't quite right. On our newest jersey, the top of the pockets is just a little too high, and getting into the pocket while riding ends up pulling on it quite hard, and the jersey is ripping at the top corners of each pocket. On many other manufacturers, there's additional reinforcement at these points. Voler does not. have that reinforcement.
