madison-indoor-779x445.jpgMadison reveals new turbo-specific clothing
Madison have launched a jersey and bib shorts that are specifically made for cycling indoors, using highly breathable materials and weighing as little as possible to give you a less sweaty turbo session.

Zwift vs TrainerRoad: which is best for you?
Tailored "specifically tailored to meet the needs of indoor training", the Turbo kit has a special anti-bacterial coating that makes it easily washable no matter how much you perspire. The jersey has an open mesh design for maximum breathability, and it's also totally plain to keep the weight as low as possible. It also doesn\t have any pockets because, well... you don't need them on a turbo!
Madison hope to make ultra-sweaty indoor training a thing of the past
The shorts have a custom Italian chamois, have the same anti-bacterial treatment as the jersey and have open mesh straps. they have a 'pre-curved' shape that are tailored for long hours in the saddle, so say Madison.
The Turbo jersey is priced at £44.99, and the shorts will be £66.99. We'll be seeing the new gear in the flesh at the IceBike trade show and will hopefully be able to get our hands on the Turbo kit to try it out soon...
Do you need turbo-specific clothing? Do you need turbo training at all? We'd like to hear your thoughts in the comments, be they positive or positively scathing...
Arriving at road.cc in 2017 via 220 Triathlon Magazine, Jack dipped his toe in most jobs on the site and over at eBikeTips before being named the new editor of road.cc in 2020, much to his surprise. His cycling life began during his students days, when he cobbled together a few hundred quid off the back of a hard winter selling hats (long story) and bought his first road bike - a Trek 1.1 that was quickly relegated to winter steed, before it was sadly pinched a few years later. Creatively replacing it with a Trek 1.2, Jack mostly rides this bike around local cycle paths nowadays, but when he wants to get the racer out and be competitive his preferred events are time trials, sportives, triathlons and pogo sticking - the latter being another long story.
I'm a man, and a feminist. You could be a TERF if you wanted to be I think.
This came up on my Facebook. Always had a slight soft spot for DEB 123 and 456 LOU, etc - easier to remember.
But the name "Blinder", it's slightly worse than Marauder, Barbarian, Defender and the like.
I've given Police Scotland HD video of close passes, and other instances of careless driving ... and had excuses ranging from "log book...
Coincidentally, this just popped up on fb:
If BC are happy to tinker with race categories, as demonstrated, then they could have created an Open category alongside Women and Men, that anyone...
I think you may be crossing boundaries there into a different type of discrimination......
Top marks Granny. Great work
I have an F Moser, rescued from a tip by a friend of a friend. It was setup as a single speed, have found a 9 speed Campgnolo groupset to use...
Another vote for C38s here.
