The Return of the Killer Kit

October 18, 2010 by

With our stock running low, the time has come for another order of the best looking non-ProTour kit going. Designed by Joe Yule of StageOne Cycling Apparel—the same graphic designer responsible for the stylish look of the Garmin-Transitions team—and produced by Boulder-based Panache Cycle Wear, this is one kit that never fails to get compliments.

We’re going to be doing things a little differently with this order. We’re ordering plenty clothing for stock so you can purchase stuff any time the urge strikes, but we’re also offering a discount of up to 20 percent (depending on the item) to those who pre-order.

We’re also adding another item this year: the secret weapon. A thermal bib short is one of those items that may see use for only three or four months per year even in cold climates, but they are the unheralded heroes of many a Spring Classic. To get a better sense of their value, you can check out my review of Castelli’s thermal bibs called the Claudio.

While the standard bibs are blue, the Roubaix bibs will come in black; consider it a humble nod to the conditions they are meant to endure. And like the other bibs, these include Cytech’s best chamois, making them as comfortable as anything you can find. The Roubaix bibs, unlike the blue bibs, are strictly pre-order.

Pre-order Pricing:

  • Blue Bibs: $105
  • Roubaix Bibs: $120
  • Jersey: $95
  • Arm Warmers: $30
  • Knee Warmers: $30
  • Wind Vest: $95

Pricing includes shipping, except for international orders, which need to add an additional $10.

Get your order and payment in by November 1 to take advantage of the discounted pricing.

RKP accepts Paypal and Google Checkout. Send your payment to killerkit@redkiteprayer.com.
