Vélobici Winter Roadwear

by Mark Tearle

New arrivals added to the Vélobici Winter Roadwear Collection

The Vélobici brand continues to expand with the introduction of new cold weather jearseys in time for Autumn and Winter. The ‘Franc’ and ‘Guilder’ jerseys are made from medium weight VB/Pro-VR1 performance fabric providing superior comfort and stretch but with added insulation to keep the chill at bay

Guilder on the move

Suitable for all-weather conditions, the stylish jerseys are water-repellent to cope with showers and off-road cycling, and the silicone grippers keep everything in place regardless of the conditions. The jerseys have an extra cuff with thumb loops and a full length zip so the level of insulation can be varied during the ride.

Guilder, Orange ‘VB’ and detailing

With five pockets conveniently located on the lower back and hip, valuables can be kept safe and dry, with two of the pockets being zipped and waterproof – great for mobile phones, keys and wallets.

The meryl/lycra acti-system fabric is exceptionally soft but durable. Moisture management technology offers exceptional wicking, dries quickly and its tight knit gives you excellent protection from the wind.

Vélobici pride themselves on producing clothing that is 100% designed and manufactured in the UK. VB/Pro-VR1 fabric is produced in Nottingham and the garments are made in Leicestershire.

Guilder, pocket and zip detail

The jerseys come in ‘Franc’ navy and red and ‘Guilder’ black and orange. Priced at £150.00, the jerseys are available from the Vélobici shop in Leicester and Condor Cycles in London. You may recall the Vélobici Van-Chilli Thermal Jersey review last year.

Vélobici recently announced further additions to their collection, with their light weight, water-proof and wind-proof Stekker jacket and Stekker Gilet in orange, produced from the highly durable Cordura fabric with a Portex water-proof breathable membrane. Not resting on their laurels bib tights have also been introduced to match the Guilder and Franc Jerseys, all available from their on-line shop in time for Christmas, if you hurry…

Expect a full review soon.
