No. Is it easily done?

Some of us got the triathlete mag kit when we entered the team time trial.

To unlock it, hit “P” in game and enter code TRIATHLETEMAG.

It’s black and white with some coloured stripes on the jersey, and the word TRIATHLETE emblazoned on the arse. Perfect for winding up roadies

I’d say you have to be a conti pro or world tour team to get your kit onto Zwift at the moment

Pisses me off that London Dynamo somehow got their kit on several years ago

Lol, nothing better than being in a group of roadies with that kit, a disc wheel, bell javelin helmet and socks slider down…I can’t help myself…:joy::joy::grinning:

Ooh whens the bell helmet??

2nd (Cat B) at the Crit City future works Steering event. Squeezed out by 0.14s, the winner used the ghost so had the jump on everyone for the sprint finish. The elite Stero is a hoot as it means you can take the corners real sharp and control the racing line.

I have always thought that would be the case. And if everyone is using it (which currently is not compulsory even in steering events) it will tone down the effect of the “blob”. Someone will actually have to choose to go to the front, and that will make breaks and team tactics more realistic.

It should also help on TTT’s, as you can more easily hold the wheels, and also pull off and avoid the line behind getting caught in the sticky draft

My cycling club did it a few years ago. I think they contacted them by e mail. Probably different now as those were early days of zwift.

Here’s the kit list

I like doing no socks on a TT bike, too.
Not got the disc combo yet

From the screenshot the triathlete kit looks like it has world champs stripes …roadies will appreciate that !

Came 5th in my first race as a fake CatA+ this morning.

Only 7 people racing and two were a DQ :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Think I got lapped.
Twice.

We were talking about one just so as to be able to avoid the sticky draft.

The kit our club has on Zwift is the exact replica of the kit we have at the club.

What club do you ride for?

Anyone done the Stampede ITT before? 19km & 335m. Wondering whether to buy P5 or stick with Tron given elevation.

Did the new TdZ in C, no late join, so I actually had to pedal to the group, then after a lap and all the stupid bouncing on the cobbles I had to stop and change all the settings that Otter left me, (yeah road feel, lovely) - back a few groups, but got most of the lost places back from stopping - who was getting dropped on the completely flat course after making the front bunch? Even the tiny short richmond hill is enough for me to go completely backwards… Then after the finish of the thing, I tried on some really steep thing but failed so much the little bike stopped moving.

First time on the non default bike, didn’t seem to make much difference, and still so much shit sticky draft, especially on this course where you’re lapping folk!
