Does anyone know any adidas cycling stockists, not sky replicas just the cycling range? Thanks in advance.

    I don't think Adidas produce cycling shoes anymore, not to my knowledge anyway, Mavic used to make them, so check out the current Mavic range.
  • Thanks for the replies - strangely enough I did a search, crc have some but can't find anywhere with the whole range.
    Nothing on adidas.com apart from some evil eyes.

    I picked up a few things from the Adidas outlet at Gunwharf Quays. Obviously not a constant supply, but worth a look if you're passing Portsmouth.

    As I said, Adidas don't produce cycling shoes anymore.

    Adidas shoes = Mavic shoes. Even tho "all day i dream about sex" make a lot of running shoes, word on the street was that they outsourced this to Mavic. Why? I don't know. Anyhow, seems 2 years ago Mavic took it back in house and branded them themselves.

    I had a pair of the Jan Ulrich yellow adistar 3 strap shoes and was happy with them. Stiff and thick nylon soles.

    Chicken and Sons is the main importer for "sex all day in dad's apartment" clothing so try their site (mainly wholesale) but there's a section for locating a retailer.

    Mavic and Adidas were part of the same group a while back, don't think they are now though.
  • Thanks again - Chicken cycles don't list adidas anymore and I was after clothing not shoes.
    Can't believe they sponsor so heavily and not have a decent range to recoup on, it's not the end of the world but I did find their clothing good for the money.

    Adidias made a decision to pull out of the cycle clothing market after Team Telekom and big Jan imploded along with German cycling, I can recall a statement. Also, SKY begged them to make kit based on rider feedback with the three stripes appealing to the riders. However as of yet, it is SKY kit only. I have SKY bibs and they are my favourite bibs by a long way,
  • Thanks Bristolpete for the definitive answer - shame as I think their kit was very good.

    Same here. I love everything Adidas ! Trainers to tops to cycling kit. It's the bees knees. As the 1980's advert said "you ain't nothin if you don't wear Adidas ,"
