Request a Development Feasibility Review

One form reaches the development manager who runs your project from the first reply to the signed spec pack.

Send your race apparel brief once, and the development manager starts on your feasibility review from that message.

We develop race-fit jerseys, aero jerseys, thermal jerseys, gilets, windproof jackets, arm and leg warmers and cycling caps for product leads at performance cycling brands, technical directors at national and regional cycling federations, and technical leads at competitive race teams and club race squads, across the United States, Europe and Australia.

Send your garment list through the form, or email sales@procyclingapparel.com with the same lines.

  • Reply within 24 hours on working days
  • Feasibility review within 48 hours of a complete spec
  • First sample in 5–7 days
  • First 2 revision rounds with no extra sampling fee
  • ISO 9001:2015, OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 fabrics and BSCI audit

Development Enquiry Form: Each Field and the Part of Your Feasibility Review It Sets

Each field carries one line saying what it decides in your review. The required fields are your development spec: fill them, and the first reply goes straight to your review.

Who the review is addressed to, and who signs the colour cards and confirms the size chart.

Please enter your name.

The organisation the development manager works with, and who confirms each specification.

Where the review, the sampling plan and each revision log are sent.

Please enter a valid email address.

A second line for quick questions; every answer is confirmed by email.

Where your samples ship, and the shipping dates in your sampling plan.

Organisation type (required)

The development route: a brand line on its existing colour standard, one spec pack per race format for a federation, or race-day garments for a team.

Choose your organisation type.

Engagement model (required)

Whether we start from a riding-position base pattern or from your reference garment, and where the signed spec pack goes.

Choose an engagement model.

Race format (required, or a temperature band)

The riding position the base pattern is drafted in, and the race position used for the aero check on an aero jersey.

Choose a race format or a temperature band.

Temperature bands (required, or a race format)

Which garment and which base fabric each band calls for, and so how many colour cards your set needs.

Garments (required)

The garments your review covers one by one, and the files each one adds to your spec pack.

Choose at least one garment.

The grading range and the men's and women's versions; every sample is measured against this chart.

Please give the size range.

What you have now

The step development starts from.

Colour standard

When strike-offs can be printed; a colour card is signed against your standard.

The pad specification the review assesses that garment against.

NDA

An NDA is signed before development starts.

Fit requirements, decoration methods, reference garments and your season timing.

Give us your garments, your size chart and size range, and the race format or temperature band, and your development spec is complete: the 48 hours start the moment you send it. The review states, garment by garment, whether we can build it to your spec, the pattern and fabric direction we propose, and a sampling plan with dates.

The garments are set out on the race cycling apparel range, with fit on race fit cycling jerseys and the three aero tiers on aero cycling jersey development.

After You Send: A Reply in 24 Hours, a Feasibility Review in 48 Hours

  1. Within 24 hours on working days:

    the development manager confirms what arrived and, if a required item is missing, lists everything still needed in one email.

  2. Within 48 hours of a complete spec:

    your feasibility review arrives. For each garment it states whether we can build it to your spec, the pattern and fabric direction we propose, including the base fabric for each temperature band, and the sampling plan with dates.

    A bib, skinsuit or tri suit is assessed against your pad supplier's specification.

  3. Before the first sample is cut:

    the pattern maker draws the cutting diagram, and the colour and print technician prints a strike-off on every base fabric in your set for your colour card signatures.

  4. First sample in 5–7 days,

    each one sent with a measurement report checked against your size chart.

  5. The first 2 revision rounds

    carry no extra sampling fee, and every change goes into the revision log.

Files and Reference Garments to Send With Your Reply

Reply to the development manager's first email and attach your files there:

  • Your size chart,

    for each garment and version.

  • Artwork and logos

    as vector files.

  • Your colour standard:

    give us a physical swatch or a colour-system reference.

  • For rework:

    post the reference garment to the development studio, or send photos and its current specification first.

  • For a bib, skinsuit or tri suit:

    your pad supplier's specification.

Your Development Manager and the Three Specialists Behind the Review

The development manager issues the feasibility review, schedules sampling, runs the revision rounds and signs off the spec pack.

The development manager brings in

  • the pattern maker

    for fit and grading,

  • the sample technician

    for sewing and measurement, and

  • the colour and print technician

    for strike-offs and colour cards.

Fit is decided by the pattern maker, sizes by your confirmed size chart, and colour by your signed colour standard.

Every decision reaches you in writing. The four roles and the development studio are introduced on about us.

Confidential Project Files and an NDA Before Development

Your patterns, cutting diagrams, spec pack and colour parameters are used on your project only. They are not reused for other clients and are not shown on this site.

Tick the NDA box on the form, and we sign an NDA with you before development starts.

At sign-off the spec pack, colour parameters and revision log are handed to you.

Bulk Production and Team Ordering Through Our Sister Sites

Production handoff:

when your engagement model is development with production handoff, the development manager passes your signed spec pack to cyclingapparelfactory.com for bulk production.

You do not resend your files.

Team ordering:

club and team ordering, with rider sizes and rosters, is handled at teamcyclingkits.com. The development manager's reply names that door when your enquiry is an order for riders.

Projects Already in Development or Signed Off

  • Next season or a repeat project:

    give your project name. Each spec pack, colour parameter and revision log is kept on file with the project, so the next season starts from the same pattern and the same colour standard.

  • A change to a confirmed spec:

    send the change to the development manager. It opens a new sampling round, and the change is logged by cutting panel with the reason.

  • A new garment added to a signed set:

    it adds its own cutting diagram, graded pattern, fabric specification, decoration map, size chart and seam notes.

    A new colour card is needed only when the garment uses a new base fabric.
