Eleven Gear was born from a chronic reaction to the poorly conceptualized cycling jerseys that one may find in bike stores, catalogues and websites throughout the US. It appears the preponderance of cycling clothes for sale either blares the manufacturer's name in billboard size print, is an abnoxious as it is ubiquitous euro-team jersey or is a jersey that features some kids' cereal or TV show. Eleven Gear was created to provide fun, thoughtful wear for those of us who just don't respond to what's out there. That, plus our jerseys are scientifically formulated to actually make you go five seconds faster per kilometer.* * Not really.
