The jersey they tried to ban. Don’t call it a comeback. The year 1990, a Planet of the Apes-esque alternative timeline wherein a team of plucky primates raided the pro peloton to take home that most colourful and elusive prize, the Bonification jersey. Echoing our own era of sponsor logo patchwork jerseys, the Team Chimp kit was adorned with the marques of ape-led businesses large and small, from Belgian building suppliers Kongcrete to shady pharmaceuticals giant Zaius Labs. Ultimately the simian dream of the glorious Bonification jersey was ended by the nefarious schemes of arch-rivals Team Pantini, so let’s celebrate again this all too brief moment in cycling history. A high-performance, super comfortable garment with integrated Banana Positioning Technology™ insuring optimally stationed wonder fruit. Our updated jerseys include longer, aerodynamic set-in sleeves with lasercut, bonded cuffs and a dropped collar, narrowing at the zip for super comfort in a riding position. Constructed in smooth fabrics for all day comfort with micro dot side and rear panels for exceptional moisture transfer and temperature control.
