not really about cost, but fit. Different companies make jerseys in different arm and body lengths, chest sizes etc.
So really just wondering if anyone else makes something similar if the Gabba isn't quite right. That most Pros use it suggests a lack of alternatives, but i note that Quickstep have a different Black Jersey.
Just struck me that if someone makes a jersey that effective, someone else would try and copy/ripoff?
The reason so many Pro's use the gabba is because it is so good. A cheap 'gabba' wont be.
There's nothing quite like the Gabba. That's why you get to MSR and see the non-Castelli riders wearing them with the logos covered.
Look at cafe du cycliste... they have one.. or just get a castelli.
I was told by the Chapeau chap that they were making something this year that's a lot like it (but better, though he would say that, wouldn't he?!). Apparently they'll have em on site in October. I fear they'll be black again. Wish someone would make nice winter kit in visible colours.
The Gabba is also available in fluorescent yellow...
