EC1 Collective

What an entertaining read this thread was and what a weapon's grade fuck up that Cannondale turned out to be.

are they putting their nice bikes away for winter ?

The saddest short story:

For sale: ECI Collective jersey. Only used 3 times.

Let's chip in and buy it for @amey

Why he, already has his own no?

I love that it’s listed as a “collab” too. Isn’t that just what Santini do as a business, make jerseys for anyone who asks and pays? It’s like saying my coffee this morning was a collab between me and the barista.

Santini Cycling Jersey New Various Sizes. EC1 Team club. Italian custom design.

NB : Like almost all Italian cycling apparel these come up a size or two smaller than youd think.

Part of the team kit for the EC1 Collective race team disbanded in 2021. All brand new with tags.

See other items for bibs / warms etc

We went out to the Santini factory in Bergamo, Italy and met Mr Pietro Santini himself - the original founder of the business back in 1965. They were sponsoring the Giro that year and we saw the Maglia Rossa being made in small batches ahead of the race that month - very cool. One of Pantani's Bianchis was sat in reception. A mad experience.

We spent time with the design team and came away with a pretty awesome design in the end. From the ribbed shoulder material, rubber dimpled grippers inside the sleeves and waist band to the italian flag details, these jerseries are very unique.

Various sazes available. AGAIN - Like almost all Italian cycling apparel these come up a size or two smaller than youd think. If youre normally M or L grab the XL. Theyre aero fitted too so choose accordingly if you prefer a looser fit.

The equivelant store bought jersery these are based on was selling at £120 at the time. They have all the bells and whistles from reflective patches, quality zip pocket and rubber grippers.

Any questions please shout.

This time someone selling all the unsold/unused ones.

Such a horrible jersey, and it's from a now-disbanded 'team / collective'. Sick

Should message the seller.

‘Do you have to be a member of the Collective to bid, or can anyone buy it if they just want to look like a WAFC?’

Should it be put to committee? Is there a feeder ride?

I could eat.

It’s like people who buy army jackets and have never been in the army.
You can only wear one of these if you’re a merchant banker

Is that Cockney rhyming slang coz if so…

Pantani's Bianchi bore witness to all of this

I'd like to point out I did several collab's with Giordana which basically consisted of me drawing the short straw to sort out the kit orders for the club. Might put it on my Linkedin CV now though.

Yup 😬

Up for sale again

Hugely overpriced but without the surrounding silly-ness, would probably be fun.

My favourite is that the brakes have not been used at all.

Look at the sellers aero headshape, if he wants to slow down he just turns his head sideways.
