Do they have to look after their own kit? It's like my school rugby kit, taking it home to wash it.
Surely the team have this stuff for each race in case the weather changes rather than Wout having to do 240km warm up ride to make sure he's got a jacket to wear for a monument..?
Rapha appear to be milking it until 23:59 BST on Sunday 1st May 2016 precisely (when the newly announced 10% of shadow wear offer ends).
For us plebs who don't get new kit every season, how long does the 'hydrophobic' coating last on Shadow/Gabba etc ?
