Madison Roam jersey


Sometimes what you want is a technical wicking jersey that doesn’t look like one once you’ve pedalled to your destination. Or maybe you just prefer the nononsense simplicity of T-shirt style designs. Enter the Madison Roam, which, with its small chest pocket and casual stripe design, looks like an everyday top. Just don’t put anything in that pocket – it’ll only take a folded fiver, and we can’t guarantee it’ll stay there until the beer needs paying for. The fabric is light and stretchy, and a more open knit is used under the arms for faster cooling. When you’re riding you barely know you’re wearing it, which is always a good sign. In short, it’s all that a technical riding T-shirt should be and you’ll probably find yourself wearing it for more than just biking.

Price $57

SO GOOD Gusset’s 50mm stem is nicely CNC machined from 7075 alloy and the faceplate and internal steerer clamp are available in a range of five anodised colours to complement the black body. The hidden steerer clamp keeps sharp edges to a minimum and removes stress from the body of the stem. Out on the bike, the stem proved flex free and bombproof.
