Rock Racing Gear

Massimo

I'm in the horns of a dilemma here, the kit is avialble to buy from May 20th.

Do I overlook the frankly dodgy team roster and buy the kit ('cos it is gorgeous, and Cipo rode for them) or do I make a stand and not line the pockets of a bunch of 'cheats'?

Your thoughts/comments/insults/advice are always appreciated

From the photos in ProCycling & CycleSport, the quality of some of the team gear looks nasty - the arm and leg warmers look like they're made from old tights.

If you are determined not to line the pockets of cheats, you have very few options in team gear though.

Still the stuff has be be better than argyll leg warmers

I Like the CSF Navigare stuff- green & orange hoops, legwarmers make you look just like the Wicked Witch of the East

Did make me wonder whether the Slipstream riders all tried especially hard to win their respective national champs last year to get away from having to wear that kit! They do seem to have a lot of national champs in the squad!

Who is making the Rock Racing gear? or is it own brand?

And why has Nalini changed to MOA all of a sudden?

it's Rock & Republic a fancy @ss clothing brand in the states, hence the price tag.

Nothing to do with bananas apparently
