The perfect handlebar tape with gel that provides a smooth and comfortable grip.
Rather than sit back and rest, the Ale design team have pushed to improve the performance of the Speedfondo Bib Shorts yet further. Making use of an innovative, ultra-matt, fast-drying fabric, the fit and feel of the shorts take a major step up. When you're facing into long mountain climbs or making the pace over cobbled roads, you can be confident that the Speedfondos are going to remain comfortable, even when lungs are burning and legs screaming from high-intensity efforts. All technical details have also been reappraised and improved upon, delivering extra muscle support and outstanding breathability. For endurance rides that stretch from early morning to late evening, reflective details keep you visible too. X Air Bib Construction The redesigned bib section Ale call their X Air Bib Construction. Using soft microfibre straps and a lightweight X-shaped back, this system minimises skin contact, leaving more skin open to the air. This allows for rapid sweat evaporation for greater comfort and freshness. The careful positioning of the straps also gives extra stability and holds your shorts in the optimal position at all times. AM Carbon Fibre Elsewhere, Ale deploys the anti-static and anti-bacterial advantages of their AM Carbon Fibre material in the upper layers of the seat insert. Dispersing charges accumulated during physical activity and accelerating sweat evaporation, this material contributes to extra comfort on the bike. Men’s 8HF Seat Pad Inside, the Men’s “8HF” pad utilises an elastic microfibre with memory padding, strategically positioned at the saddle contact points for maximum comfort. In the perineal and ischiatic area, higher density 120kg/m³ padding ensures the very best support on the saddle and vibration-damped comfort across even the roughest of roads. Meanwhile, a central relief channel protects sensitive nerve endings while lateral shaped flexible wings follow the body for complete freedom of movement and comfort when pedalling
Drizzly mist in the air. Freezing temperatures. And cold winds. But despite all that you'll be out on your bike and enjoying winter miles with the protection of the Solid Fondo Jacket. Keeping out drizzly rain, the water-resistant Windtex membrane is also windproof, preventing both cold winds and water from sapping away your body heat. Meanwhile, inside the jacket, you'll find a soft and cosy fleece material. With its square grid structure, it traps air to create a warm and constant microclimate inside, insulating you against the cold. On the bike, you'll find the performance fit ensures you remain streamlined but comfortable. A silicone elastic hem gripper maintains a flush fit over your winter tights while a full-length YKK zipper makes it easy to pull the jacket on and off at the start and end of your bike ride. 3 rear pockets make space for spares and reflective trims keep you visible as day turns to night.
The Solid Fondo Long Sleeve Jersey is made from functional fabrics that balance keeping you warm with the need to deal with sweat quickly and efficiently. The thermal material has a fleecy grid structure on the inside, creating a warm and snug micro-climate inside. At the same time, this also enhances moisture-management, drawing sweat away from the body where it can escape to the outside of the jersey. The result is excellent comfort and balanced thermo-regulation. Should you feel yourself overheating the full-length front zip gives you easy control of ventilation to cool yourself down. A silicone elastic hem gripper keeps the fit snug while back pockets offer plenty of space for your cycling essentials. And with a 'Performance Fit', it's a streamlined jersey that won't slow you down as you pick up speed.

Balancing both warmth and breathability, the Fondo 2 Cycling Jersey is made from 100% polyester with a super-comfy and cosy brushed inner face. This traps your body heat on a cooler day and when paired with a vest creates a warm barrier against falling temperatures. However, put some pressure on the pedals and increase your pace, its breathability and quick-wicking characteristics ensures you’re not suffering from the chill of sweat build-up inside. The fit is kept neutral, not too tight and yet not too loose either. It’s easy to add layers underneath and offers easy mobility when you’re on the bike too. An easy-sliding YKK® Vislon® zipper keeps you in control of ventilation and 3 rear pockets keep essentials within easy reach. And lastly, the bands on the sleeves and the vertical stripe on the pocket are reflective for low-light visibility.
