GORE BIKE WEAR® has been a partner of the toughest mountain bike race in the world, the Sellaronda HERO, since it was born in 2010. Rapid change in climatic conditions, large differences in altitude and technically demanding sections characterize this race, which requires a lot of athletes and their clothing. GORE BIKE WEAR® has taken up this challenge and developed a unique solution for mountain bike enthusiasts who aim for performance. Thanks to its versatility and flexibility ALPX PRO, a completely new line of the 2015 spring / summer collection, is setting new standards.
Frederik Stormo, cyclist and former GORE BIKE WEAR® athlete, as well as coach of the Norwegian mountain bike team, will take part in the Sellaronda HERO 2015. As an experienced cyclist he has been involved in the development of ALP-X PRO products: "In mountain bike competitions all participants face the same decisions: if the clothing is too light there is a risk of freezing and if you choose a garment that is too warm, a change of clothes may be necessary, which costs precious time. At the same time, you don't want to take other items with you as they add unnecessary weight ”. The versatility of the ALP-X PRO outfit system strikes him: “Now I can concentrate completely on the race, without wasting time thinking about what I'm wearing”. The new ALP-X PRO outfit system from GORE BIKE WEAR® is based on four highly functional and perfectly coordinated garments, which resist even in the difficult conditions of mountain bike racing.
The ALP-X PRO WS SO Zip-Off is jacket and jersey in a single garment. The windproof and breathable WINDSTOPPER® Soft Shell stretch material and detachable sleeves offer a high level of comfort and allow versatile use in any temperature. Thanks to the WINDSTOPPER® Soft Shell technology, the lightweight ALP-X PRO WS SO shorts offer reliable protection in cold weather and wet roads, and can be easily worn over tights or shorts + ALP-X PRO 2in1. Thanks to the FIRM HOLD Pocket technology, the ALP-X PRO jersey is equipped with a rear pocket with three compartments that offers a lot of space and remains aligned even if completely full, without sagging or moving on the back.
