Cycling clothing

Cycling jerseys

- Camo fashion has changed from an adventure symbol to ambivalent clothing since real wars began to affect Europe again.  
- Camouflage patterns remain permitted, but change their symbolism when war no longer seems far away and real soldiers are deployed.  
- Flecktarn was developed from 1935 by SS professor Johann Georg Otto Schick and still characterises military camouflage patterns worldwide today.

Troy Lee gear: War on the trail?

- Numerous bike parts and clothing in white or "Cloud Dancer" will be presented, from helmets and shoes to trousers and jerseys.  
- Several products focus on sustainability and material innovations, such as undyed recycled fabrics, PFAS-free coatings and Vibram soles.  
- The functional focus is on protection, ergonomics, ventilation and grip, including MIPS systems, removable chin bars, special soles and Insidegrip.

- Rapha revises the 2026 Brevet collection as a modular system for ultra-long distances and multi-day rides with jersey, bib shorts and waistcoat.  
- Cargo Bib Shorts III and Brevet Jerseys feature seamless endurance seat padding, elasticated bib straps, a five-pocket system and four cargo pockets for plenty of storage space.  
- Reflective, lightweight stripes, breathable materials, packable 10-litre rucksack and practical tests at TCR and world record attempts emphasise comfort and efficiency.

Rapha Brevet collection: lots of pockets and visibility

- City Pack 22 is an affordable, lightweight 22-litre commuter backpack with excellent handling and a practical knapsack design.  
- Water-repellent material protects the contents well from the rain, but zips allow some moisture through in heavy rain.  
- Weaknesses: simple laptop compartment, moderate carrying comfort without chest/stomach strap, lack of reflectors; overall test score: 3.0.

- Leatt equips the Nukeproof Axess Racing Team 2026 in the UCI Downhill World Cup with a new gravity collection.  
- The collection combines 1980s rave elements such as day-glo colours, baggy cuts and smiley motifs with functional cycling clothing.  
- The designs are orientated towards underground culture and are a conscious rejection of established racing conventions.

- Deuter Amager 25+5 impresses with a very good carrying system, weather protection and an overall score of 2.0 in the BIKE test.  
- Measured volume is around 20 litres instead of the stated 25+5; high price of 200 euros leads to criticism.  
- Few external compartments, lack of bottle pockets and limited storage space for equipment are criticised, safety only rated 4.5.

- The test winner is the Deuter Amager 25+5 (overall grade 2.0); very good carrying system, waterproof, but expensive and with less usable volume.
