GB Replica Kit To Be Released

9 February 2011 |

Cycling fans at home and abroad will be able to show their support for the GB Cycling Team in the build up to London 2012 by donning British colours on and off the bike when the national squad's official replica range goes on sale in April 2011.

Made by adidas, British Cycling's sportswear partner, the replica kit will be designed using team specification, technology and styling. All eight items included in the range will be manufactured from the highest quality materials and have the same performance qualities of the clothing worn by British riders.

Geraint Thomas & Brad Wiggins look happy with the new kit!

Included in the range will be a short sleeve cycling jersey made for comfort and breathability, a cosy long sleeve cycling jersey with a fleece inner, a wind vest to keep the chill away on cold and rainy days, and high quality bib shorts made for superior fit.

Accessories will include racing gloves with high quality synthetic chamois, cycling specific pro socks and a cotton cap to complement the look. Also featuring in the range will be a child's cycling jersey for any young, aspiring Chris Hoy or Victoria Pendleton. Preview the full range

The replica kit will be available from a number of well-known cycling retailers and fans will get a sneak preview of the range at Manchester's Track Cycling World Cup on 18-20 February. Full pricing and the list of official retailers will be released shortly.

British Cycling members will be able to buy the merchandise at a discounted price via Wiggle. To qualify for a discount on the replica range and to find out about the many benefits available to cyclists through British Cycling membership, visit www.britishcycling.org.uk/membership
