Jersey And Kit Guidelines For Gran Fondo World Championships And Gravel World Championships
Cycling Ireland would like to remind those competing in UCI Gran Fondo World Championships and Gravel World Championships of UCI and Cycling Ireland jersey and kit guidelines.
Riders qualifying for the UCI Gran Fondo World Championships or Gravel World Championships do not receive the official Irish national team kit as the event is not a Cycling Ireland selected high-performance team. To comply with UCI regulations, it is advised to contact Cycling Ireland's Official Technical Kit Supplier, Spin11, to purchase a replica kit. A minimum of 10 weeks' notice should be given for racing suit orders and support from Spin11.
For custom orders, including National Champions jersey orders, contact sales@spin11.com directly. A replica Irish National Team kit can be purchased at spin11.com.
Alternatively, you are free to wear a jersey that represents Ireland by another manufacturer. Please note that if you choose to purchase kit from a manufacturer other than Spin11, you are not permitted to replicate or copy the design of the National Team kit, as it is the intellectual property of Cycling Ireland and Spin11. Cycling Ireland and Spin11 will robustly protect National Team Kit intellectual property.
Reigning World and European champions are obliged to wear their official winners' jerseys (jersey, kit, bike, helmet, shoes) in qualifier events of the discipline in which they won the title. However, they are forbidden from wearing such kit (or any variation) in UCI World Championships and UEC European Championships
