"A great suit that I'll probably buy another of - one for training and one for racing."warrenbme
Quality of Construction
The quality is what I've come to expect from 2XU. The material is great, stretchy yet snug. Flatlock stitching is becoming more and more common, and the legs don't ride up and are quite comfortable with the silicon leg grippers
Fit
Excellent fit. The 2XU site doesn't gove specific information about trisuit size, but a first time professional fit in store means unless you change shape significantly, you should be ok.
Comfort
The Elite trisuit is a lot lighter than some of the other trisuits out there. This suit is very breathable which means its great for summer and hot work, and remains very comfortable
Adjustability
The suit is a little difficult to adjust once it's on, but that's the idea. You can get it right the first time when you're putting it on - alleviating any adjustment. During transition, a little adjustment around the shoulders worked wonders!
Durability
At this stage it's quite durable. Wearing it in swimming pools is something I don't do, simply because I want the suit to last. This one should last a few seasons
Value
Great value for money. If it lasts a few seasons, it's done its job.
Appearance
Flat black can hide some things - but not this suit. It's designed to be snug, so expect it. Once you're used to the way it feels, you just want to get racing!
Performance
Excellent! Very slippery in the water, great to transition to the bike, and the transition to the run was seamless. It was very comfortable on the bike for a long ride. No issues with this suit for performance.
Strengths
Excellent fitting trisuit that does what the label says it does. Sensational for swimming, great for fast transition to the bike, very comfortable for riding, and very light for running.
Weakness
A little revealing, but you get used to it once the mind is on your race - everyone else is thinking the same thing!

Ease of use
This trisuit is an excellent fit. It is snug in all the right places, very easy to put on, and while the zip is on the back, it's easy to zip up and down.
