Wie maak die kit vir jou?

Probably Bioracer

Ā 

alex@bbtrading.co.za

Ā 

And our "normal" corporate kit is made by Cyclone Sportswear - great service from these guys, and the quality of the shirts is great - jannie@cyclonesw.co.zaĀ 

Ā 

The quality of the shorts is very important - so choose carefully.

Ā 

Jannie also did some branded wet weather gear for us - gilets and long sleeve rain jackets, as well as our sleeves.

1500 odd per bib and about 800 per shirt... x 20 sets.

Gents,

Ā 

You can also contact Cyclesharp if you're interested in the High end custom stuff like Craft or Giordana for the Epic.

Ā 

I know they also made the official TransCape kit which is pretty awesome.

Yup - corporate marketing expense... :)

Ā 

Wet weather stuff you need at least 2 of per person - inevitable you will have 2 or more rain days back to back....

Ā 

Washing kit at the Epic is very hit and miss in terms of getting kit actually clean again... and dirty kit on a tender butt is a no no....
