I bought some of this as spares to my proper kit, shorts and shirts look good but if you ride with it any sort of distance you can see the benefits of buying real gear. Whilst on lands end to John o groats I had a day where none of my kit was dry in time, used the lidl gear only to end up with major chaffing in the groin and arm pit areas, this was with using assos cream, I would steer clear of those bits. Had a pair of mtb shoes which have lasted well but not that comfortable so I again only use as a backup to my Spesh shoes.
