Conquest, BBB Cycling, Craft, Rhinomed – need we say more?
Conquest Performance cycle wear
Free shipping from now and until Xmas time!
With the warmer months upon us the time is now to throw out that crusty kit dragged through winter to make room for something better suited to the upper end of the
temperature dial. There’s plenty of ways to combat the heat and the line of Conquest Performance gear will ensure you’re kept as comfortable as possible when fighting the UV-rich Aussie sun. The Performance 2 bib short is given the Coldblack treatment, an exclusive “can’t buy anywhere else” perforated chamois for greater breathability, while its partnering jersey features mesh underams and antibacterial fabric to keep you cool and stink-free. When you’re finished drinking coffee – dry and odour-free – with your sweaty and smelly buddies, you can head home and throw it all in the wash with the included wash bag to ensure it’s kept in top condition.
Performance 2 bibs: $140
Performance 2 jersey: $125
Short sleeve base layer: $62
