Summer Cycling Jersey and Shorts Set with Moisture-Wicking Technology for Long Rides

This cycling suit combines 100% polyester jersey fabric with Lycra shorts to create a complete cycling outfit designed for New Zealand's variable summer conditions. The moisture-wicking properties actively pull sweat away from your skin during intense rides up hills like the Bombay Hills or around Lake Taupo, while the breathable construction prevents overheating on those humid Northland days. With eight size options from XS to 4XL and precise measurements for both jersey and shorts, this set accommodates cyclists from 155cm to 198cm tall.

Features and Quality Construction Details

This section covers the specific technical aspects that make this cycling suit perform well in various conditions, from coastal rides to inland hill climbs.

Fabric Technology and Performance

The 100% polyester jersey fabric incorporates moisture-wicking technology that moves sweat to the fabric surface where it can evaporate quickly, reducing that clammy feeling during long rides. The chemical fibre construction includes micro-channels that enhance air circulation, particularly important during summer cycling around Auckland's waterfront where humidity can be high. The fabric maintains its shape through multiple wash cycles, resisting the stretching that often occurs with cheaper cycling wear.

Size and Fit Specifications

Available in eight precise sizes from XS to 4XL, with chest measurements ranging from 82cm to 124cm and waist measurements from 51cm to 72cm. Sleeve lengths progress from 33cm to 40cm across sizes, while shorts lengths increase from 20cm to 27cm. The size chart correlates with height ranges from 155cm to 198cm and weight ranges from under 50kg to 95kg, making it suitable for most adult cyclists in New Zealand.

Durability and Construction Quality

The set features flatlock stitching that reduces chafing during long rides, particularly important for multi-day events like the Lake Taupo Cycle Challenge. The fabric blend maintains elasticity through repeated stretching during pedalling motions, with the Lycra shorts recovering their shape after each use. Reinforced seams at stress points prevent tearing during aggressive riding positions.

Practical Applications for Cyclists

This cycling suit serves multiple purposes for different types of riders across New Zealand's diverse cycling terrain.

Competitive Cycling Use

Ideal for club racing and competitive events where moisture management is crucial for performance. The moisture-wicking properties help maintain comfort during intense efforts like hill climbs on the Coromandel Peninsula or time trials on flat Canterbury roads. The precise fit reduces wind resistance while the breathable fabric prevents overheating during sustained efforts.

Recreational and Fitness Cycling

Perfect for weekend riders tackling popular routes like the Hauraki Rail Trail or Wellington's waterfront cycleways. The comfort-focused design accommodates longer rides without chafing, while the sun-protective coverage is ideal for New Zealand's strong UV conditions. The easy-care fabric suits regular use without special maintenance requirements.
