The official Great Britain Cycling Team replica range has gone on sale at www.wiggle.co.uk and will soon be available from other cycling retailers for the first time in over a decade, giving fans the opportunity to lay their hands on a piece of cycling history in the build-up to the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

There is nothing ordinary about this replica range, it is the real deal, made in Italy using team specification, technology and styling. Made by adidas, British Cycling's sportswear partner, the kit is manufactured from the highest quality materials and has the same performance qualities as clothing worn by British riders.

Consisting of eight items, the range includes a short sleeve cycling jersey made for comfort and breathability, a cosy long sleeve cycling jersey with a fleece inner, arm warmers to keep the chill away on cold and rainy days, and high quality bib shorts made for superior fit.

Accessories include racing gloves with high quality synthetic chamois, cycling specific pro socks and a cotton cap to complement the look. There is also something for the young fans who too can feel part of the successful British Cycling Team by wearing a kid's jersey on and off the bike.

Olympic Champion Bradley Wiggins said: "The kit we use is superb. There's no doubt it technically helps boost our performance and the fabrics have been developed for maximum comfort. Donning British colours for training and competing is always the ultimate honour and it's great that cycling fans can now share that feeling with riders on the British team. It will be great to see British fans wearing the kit when they're out riding, at upcoming races and major cycling events. They'll be a massive factor spurring us on in London 2012."

The replica kit is available from a number of well-known cycling retailers. To find out about the many benefits available to cyclists through British Cycling membership visit www.britishcycling.org.uk/membership.
