I have no idea why Freya thought their sports bras needed to have the widest wires in existence. Fit is so off because the wires are so wide. It's still pretty good for support though, so if you don't mind the wide wires and probably floating gore from said wires, this bra is a decent sports bra option.

Very high quality materials, well made. Seems to run big compared to Shock Absorbers of the same size. So, likely the Freya is just more true to size because Shock Absorber are typically a whole cup and band size too small. 4 by 4 hooks gives you a lot of leeway for cycle related weight fluctuation and extra security.

The wires are very wide. The cup doesn't have much room in the the bottom, might be good for FOT types. The stock photos do a good job illustrating the pointy shape this bra gives.
I have a 26.5" underbust and fastened this on the second column of hooks right away, I could probably even go a column tighter. Other 30F sports bras barely let me breathe on the loosest hooks.

Apparently I have narrow roots because there was at least an inch of empty cup on the sides.

The band is SUPER snug. If your ribcage expands a lot during intense exercise, go up a band size or two. I had to wear an extender with it so that I could breathe while running! It also gives a very pointy shape, but this didn't matter to me because how my breasts look isn't a concern while working out. If this is something you don't want, I would try a different sports bra.
