Rapha responds to cyclists’ need to keep cool on climbs
Cycling clothing brand Rapha has said its latest Pro Team climber’s products have been developed specifically for tackling climbs on the hottest days.

“When the road and the mercury rise, keeping cool is a priority,” Rapha said on making the announcement. “One of the best ways a rider can gain an advantage over soaring gradients and temperatures is through their clothing.”

Features in the Pro Team climber’s products, developed with input from the best riders in the world, the UK brand says, include mesh panels to maximise breathability, trimmed bib straps to keep weight to a minimum, and lightweight fabrics to increase moisture transfer.
