targa clothing?

picked up a catalogue for a company called nevis in my local bike shop. Nevis, it seems, own richa, demon, meta system and Targa.

Targa is the only one I havent heard of. Has anyone else heard of them or even bought some of theirstuff? Just looking for opinions/reviews really because their stuff seems reasonably priced.

Is this anoher one of those things where one brand is pretty much the same as another but cheaper, like Frank Thomas and Lewis.

Cheers

I have a two piece Targa suit, cost me £150 new.
Have come off wearing it twice. The 2nd time was pretty damn bad, and the suit is still what i'm using when riding.
Would definately recommend them. The quality is good and it has held up well for me.

Are Targa not the people who are famous for making bags for laptops? Confused

Stick your postcode into their website to find the nearest Nevis dealer, you might find another shop locally

thanks holly. I used the postcode search thing but obviously it lists the shops that sell just richa, or just shark etc etc. I've been in to my local shop who are listed on their search but they sell richa and shark but no targa Sad

When i bought my YBR, a Targa jacket and pair of gloves were included.
Both of which seem to be OK quality. Nothing on them has broken, the jacket is waterproof etc. I'd consider Targa when buying new gear.

This was from West London Yamaha.
