Always curious by these unknown brands making kit for top teams. Is their kit actually superior to the well known stuff we all know? Or is it just exclusively marketing. You wonder.
Pretty sure Agu is a much bigger company in the Netherlands (which makes sense).
It's the same as Kalas, they sponsor BC but I very rarely see Kalas kit around unless a club or team is sponsored/customer kit with them. It's certainly not as ubiquitous as Castelli or Sportful for example.

Jumbo are with “Agu” - no me neither.
Pissei previously in the peloton with IAM i think…

But is it better kit and are we being duped by the brands?
“Road racing was over and the UCI had banned my riding positions on the track, so it was like ‘Jings, crivvens, help ma Boab, what do I do now? I know, I’ll go away and be depressed for 10 years’.”
Rabobank also used to wear Agu. If I remember correctly those kits were made by Nalini.
This is the thing, the name on the kit doesn’t necessarily mean it is made by them. The GB Adidas branded kit was made by Impsport the same as a lot of club kits in the UK I believe.
If you want yhe pinnacle of magazine journalism, 1990s Performance Bikes and anything by Mark Graham, Mark Forsyth, John Robindon, Simon Hargreaves, Rupert Paul
Utter sheer joy.

trulyutterlyshit
it/they - because it must be a bot to be that utterlyshit - should be taken outside and given a damn fine kicking/beating with a pick axe handle.
