Great product. Good size, doesn’t leak, fits in my Melburn Roobaix musette bag, turns heads at traffic lights. Just what I bought it for

Colour is great and keeps me dreaming of riding whilst in iso.
No way I was going to miss my 8th. Stay safe and see you on the other side!
Longer than previous models, but should be a blast.
The paper is really nice and it seems to be exactly the size that was mentioned on the website. Another great product from Fyxo.
ps. Couldn't resist ... Looking forward to my roobaix ride!
We printed the map and have it on our table as a placemat, enjoying studying the map, waiting for the day we can come to Melbourne and ride Roubaix. We might do a virtual one just to keep the wheels spining and for some fun in the sun. Found our own little cobble, so winners are grinners. Thank you FYXO, you are awesome and brighten our days. (Loving the cook too, inspiring. Thanks Melanie)
Fast service. Great crew! looking forward to my first Melburn Roobaix!
These shorts are the best. Comfy and stretchy but not too baggy, they offer more protection without being overblown. The pockets are secure and big enough to store phone, keys and ID without flopping about. 10/10 would recommend.
Value for money I don’t think you can go past fyxo bibs... They were the first decent bibs I ever bought and I always have at least 1 pair in the collection. Quality of the product is always excellent, never had any warranty issues. Material is super comfy, and my undercarriage is alway happiest when it is wrapped in a fyxo chamois, especially on longer rides!! Thanks for such a great product look forward to purchasing more in the future.
Rain, hail or virus, the Melburn Roobaix will go on.
Ticket arrived in a very short time, looking forward to the lifting of restrictions and heading in to ride. Thanks Fyxo.
Always got to support those who work tirelessly to make our lives better. The Melburn Roobaix is by for one of the most enjoyable and social events in the cycling calendar.
Been lovin’ it since 2009, keep up the good work gang!
The kind generosity to allow 2020 riders a ticket in the 2021 Roobaix is fantastic
In the current climate of non-events and virtual events - this is the best I have purchased without even a second thought. I’ll keep in training for the day I can grab a group of mates and hit the cobbles, coffee shops, and a brewery or two before the train ride home. I’m even thinking of a faux-melburn-roobaix in my own town just to get out for the day, ride a creek trail and the 6 pavè sections I know of. #stayposted #outdoorsisfree #anyexcusetoride
Something that even a blind man could look forward to. Can't wait to get amongst it once the Rona is over
Fast delivery as always Andy & Melodie
Thanks for creating a social distance Roobaix. Will be a while till I can come to town to ride it though!
Once again Mr & Mrs Fyxo have pulled off another awesome event in the hardest of times. Can't wait to ride the coarse.
Cheers. Ride safe
Can’t wait to go out for a burn around the inner burbs, especially happy I’ve got a few options on how to plan out my Roubiax. Cheers FYXO
Life is too short *not* to have FYXO's motto pasted across your chest, any time of the day or night. This t-shirt has the correct number of arm-holes, ticks all the boxes and fits like a bucket list.
As ‘the Canibal’ says. It does not matter how much or how little, as long as you ride.
The ride you have when you can’t leave your house...
I loved the idea that we can still participate in a great event through restrictions and lockdowns.
Thanks for putting in the effort.
Bought the ROOBAIX headset caps, great quality cycling gear as always, and now I heed another bike to fit the last one to, cheers
Heartfelt thanks Melody and Andy for persevering through the most challenging of circumstances to bring us together, apart, for yet another unique installation of Melburn's biggest bike party. I can't make it to the sick state and don't have a trainer, so I'll be riding a roughly equivalent route through the steep streets of old Hobart town. With maybe a little more vert... Can't wait! ✌🏽
Thanks for re-imagining the Melburn Roobaix and getting my ticket and other gear to me so fast.
Supporting 2020 so we can get bumpy in 2021! Great way to say 'merci' for fourteen years of pavé bliss.
Love the Fyxo team! This year Melburn Roobaix was going to fall on my wife’s birthday. As bad as this shitshow is, at least I can now still ride it!
Arrived promptly and as advertised. Fyxo are always a class act.
We're standing by to take your call - be it help with a product, sizing or want to get 'mates rates'.
We'll do our darndest to respond to you in a timely - and always friendly manner.
Ride safe!
