Rapha can get away with helmetless bicycle riding for one reason in my book – pure awesomeness. Summer is approaching and Rapha released some dangerously fashionable gear loaded with function.
Rapha’s Super Lightweight Jersey (above) is designed to be worn in the most brutal of conditions. Constructed from a highly breathable extra lightweight antibacterial polyester, it’s equipped with a standard three rear pockets and an additional zipped valuables pocket. Available in XS-XL in the three colors pictured above, each jersey runs $150. Grab one here.

Rapha Arm Screens are designed to protect a rider’s arms on hot, sunny rides. Made from the same fabric as Rapha’s Pro Team Jersey, the high-wicking technical fabric incorporates coldblack® technology, a treatment that makes the material cool against the skin in hot weather.
