Ale Clothing Hive 2.0 R-EV1 Short Sleeved Skinsuit

This purpose-built aerodynamic cycling body was engineered to satisfy the highest demands of efficiency on the bike. Now with a next-gen design, it consists of four different materials that excel against the clock: Ale opted for the lightweight, breathable, and fast-drying Microforato Light for the body’s core and printed sections; our ground-breaking JET STRIPE on the sleeves to minimise drag with two-way stretch and a 3D channel-effect that boosts aerodynamics; while the waist panel boosts breathability with its perforated fabric. Next, Ale moved to the legs, where we selected Airfix Exagon for its targeting compression and ability to hold off muscle fatigue. For further aero gains, Ale cut the collar to favour free speed and a form-following fit. **Features** * **Designed for elite cyclists** who love to ride in any conditions * **Raw Cut sleeves** for optimised aerodynamics, perfect adhesion to the arm and lightweight * **Patented fabrics** designed for breathability in high intensity and incredibly lightweight * **Cam-Lock Zip** ensures the zip stays in your chosen position and never opens accidentally * **Gripper fabric** of stretchy silicone on the internal side to improve adherence to the body, reduce folds and enhanced aerodynamics * **Laser pierced** openings in the underarm to keep breathability yet maintain a warm temperature * **Seatpad** which guarantees excellent protection combined with patented fabrics to increase ventilation meaning quick drying and comfort * **2 large rear pockets** for all your riding essentials * **Reflective Details** so you can be seen at all times of the day **Fit and Collection:** This capsule collection brings together a selection of unique garments, which all stand out for individual concepts, features, materials and cutting-edge finishes.
