We get a lot of questions about our men’s super warm winter jackets and jerseys... Patriot, Jack Frost, Allsort, Magma, and Joker. We’re also working on some new designs, with a few exciting options already in the pipeline.
The Patriot and Jack Frost are built for tough New Zealand winter conditions, designed to keep you properly warm when winter really kicks in. Perfect for the morning commute or those long cold rides when the Wellington southerly is biting and the puddles are icy. They’re roomy enough to layer up with one or two base layers when the temperature really drops.
The Allsort, Magma, and Joker are still warm, but not quite as heavy-duty as the Patriot or Jack Frost. Think cold mornings where you’ll start with a base layer underneath, but once the sun comes up and the ride heats up, you can peel layers off without feeling like you’re broiling.
If you’ve been wondering which one is right for you, feel free to message us we’re always happy to help with sizing, fit, and choosing the best option for how you ride.
Equally suited for road, MTB or gravel.

A little rusty and a few spills, but always a big smile from Sophia and happy to be back on Hutt Cross legend Malcolm Scott’s bike for round 1 of the Hutt Cross over the weekend. Thanks Malcolm!
Sophia wears the Kererū Women’s Bike Cargo Bib Shorts and Dark Fern Women’s Summer Long Sleeve Cycle Jersey.
Ross was back on the trusty single speed and may have slightly overdone it with a ride to California Park as well… cyclocross is hard work!
Ross wears the Men’s Taniwha Strapped Tights – Men’s Full Length Bib Tights and the Light Speed Men’s Summer Long Sleeve Cycle Jersey.
Thanks for an awesome day

Just arrived… Dirtbags Men’s Baggy Bike Shorts and Padded Undershorts
Tested on the New Zealand Enduro circuit and refined using direct rider feedback, the Dirtbags deliver a knockout blend of value, durability, and performance.
Not too casual and never tame, the Dirtbags kit earns its reputation by delivering performance with character. We’ve stripped things back, dialed things in, and refined the entire package with a focus on real‑world riding, real movement, and real comfort.
Built tough where it counts, the Dirtbags shorts feature reinforced double snap fasteners, durable YKK zips throughout, and rubber waist adjusters that lock in your fit without fuss. An internal waist tape keeps the shorts planted while you’re on the bike, no slipping, no readjusting mid‑run.
Expanded two‑way stretch across the rear panel maximizes airflow and unrestricted motion, giving you the freedom to climb, descend, and send without a second thought. Storage is sorted with two deep pockets: one zipped phone pocket engineered to keep your device secure and completely stable, and one open pocket for quick‑access essentials.
Comfort goes further with ultra‑comfy padded undershorts, secured in place with internal push‑button clips so nothing twists or bunches while you ride. The Velcro‑adjustable waistband lets you fine‑tune your fit on the fly, rounding out a setup that’s as practical as it is dialed.

Looking for winter cycle pants that actually keep you warm?
We sell a lot of Men’s and Women’s Fur Seals and continue to get some fantastic reviews. Throwback photo of Sophia and Ross from a few winters back putting them to the test out on the trails.
They’ve been tested riding through some of New Zealand’s coldest conditions, down to 0°C, and comfortably handle even colder temperatures thanks to their seriously effective insulation.
Designed with a multi-panel ergonomic fit, they move naturally on the bike while sharkskin fabric protects the knees and flanks from wind and cold. An outer windproof layer keeps the elements out, while the full fleece lining keeps the warmth in.
Both available in sizes Small to XX-Large including long leg versions. More sizes coming soon. Equally suitable for Road, MTB or Gravel.

Third time’s a charm! Wellington really turned it on for today!
Always a fabulous day out, with some close racing (as always) with Had a few mechanicals and definitely thought about throwing in the towel halfway with home very close...but I’m glad I didn’t. There’s nothing quite like pushing through, and to take 1st in the 100k at the ripe old age of 51 is pretty special.
Sophia took on her first 50k, tackling some of the very best Wellington tracks, so proud of her effort out there.
Huge thanks to Bengy and the team for putting on an awesome race. And it’s always a boost getting cheered on by the home crowd. Big thanks as well to and for supporting Sophia and I you lifted my spirits out there. Legends!
Ross is wearing the Men’s Vertigo Summer Long Sleeve and Men’s Split Ends Bib Shorts. Sophia is wearing the Glacier Summer Long Sleeve and Women’s Kererū Bib Shorts.

As the weather cools down, we often get asked, what’s best for autumn riding?
Our Men's and Women's summer-weight long sleeves are our go to tops. They’re warm enough for those crisp mornings (especially paired with a base layer), but still light and breathable once things heat up.
For men: Vertigo, Lightspeed, or Skyline
For women: Glacier
And coming in the next few weeks...
Men’s Ridgeline and Women’s Darkfern.
