Other advantages include elasticity and odour neutrality.

A small frame pocket for the jacket is included. However, you should not expect additional pockets at this weight.

Hiplok - Folding lock
Hiplok may not have reinvented the folding lock, but they have come up with something special when it comes to attaching it to the bike. What makes the Hiplok Switch special is the bottle holder supplied and the special Switch plate. This allows the unfolded 85 centimetre long lock to be attached to the bottle cage. This allows you to decide spontaneously whether you want to take the lock or a water bottle with you - without having to change the holder or use a tool.
Garmont & Shimano - two new bike shoes
Cycling shoes should be as comfortable as possible when cycling and also when walking for long periods. The Italian mountain shoe specialist Garmont has developed the 9.81 Hi-Ride model based on this premise. A significant part of the shoe is made from recycled material.
The new EX-300 model from Shimano should also offer lightness on the foot and comfortable pedalling. A loose mesh material ensures good ventilation on the foot. The shoe is available in men's and women's versions >> available here.
Vaude - Bike dress
Vaude wants more urban style on the bike with the so-called Comyou dress for women. This includes fashionable, sporty leggings and a short bike dress. As usual with Vaude, both are primarily made from sustainable or recycled materials.
Gonso - Skirt & Blouse
More femininity in cycling - that was also the basic idea behind Gonso's short-sleeved "Molveno" cycling blouse with tie fastening and the matching "Levico" cycling skirt with thin, integrated seat pad. To ensure that the items are also functional, i.e. elastic, breathable and quick-drying, they are largely made from recycled polyester and a little elastane.
