Leicester, Thursday April 15, 2021, FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Velobici has partnered with Factor Bikes to create an exclusive range of performance cycle clothing that embodies the spirit of both brands.
The Velobici x Factor collection introduces cutting edge fabrics and design elements alongside heritage inspired styling. Each Velobici x Factor Bikes garment is constructed in Leicestershire with uncompromising attention to detail by Velobici’s team of master craftspeople.
The collection is themed around two colourways - grey and red, both with embroidered logo detailing and a lightweight, high-wicking fabric. The accompanying bib shorts are, of course, black and feature mild compression fit to aid endurance and bioceramic pads for freshness. The collection also includes accessories with a range of off-bike clothing to follow later in the summer. Full details below.
For every sale from the Velobici x Factor collection, we will donate a percentage of the procdeeds to mental health charities around the world. In doing so, we hope to do our bit to raise awareness of this issue.
Features The Velobici x Factor jersey utilises an entirely new fabric that introduces a new level of comfort, to deliver unrivalled performance. Available in two colourways and featuring exquisite detailing, from the reflective piping edging the pockets to embroidered logo detailing and diecast logo zippers.
We’ve used a fibre that has hydrophilic properties built into the polymer itself. This means that the incredible moisture wicking properties are inherent throughout the fabric and will not degrade over multiple washes. The Velobici x Factor jersey is created for a close, race fit whilst allowing for total freedom of movement from the proprietary four-way stretch fabric. Our unique pocket system allows for ease of access to a phone or other valuables via the convenient side pocket.
Features The foundation to every outfit, our underlayer uses a lightweight jacquard version of our new VB/Pro Hydroflow fabric
Our baselayer fabric uses a fibre that has hydrophilic properties built into the polymer itself for incredible wicking to help keep you dry and aid temperature regulation. Made with flatlock stitching and four-way stretch for next-to-skin comfort. Available in three versions: sleeveless, short and long-sleeved. The Velobici x Factor baselayer fits neatly under a jersey and allows total range of movement with a four-way stretch fabric.
Features Our new gilet is light enough to fit unnoticed into a jersey pocket while delivering an effective barrier against the weather when worn.
