We had custom merino ones done few years back from these guy’s. Excellent service all round

Vintage Velos if you want something properly retro, not printed polyester - nice quality.
One year, my wife gave me the long sleeve Cinzano jersey for Xmas - I went out for a ride, crashed and made a big hole in the sleeve - gutted!

If by retro you mean old team kits planet x had some but mostly odd sizes.

I'd love a proper US Postal (Lance era) strip - but a decent made one rather than a cheap chinese copy.

There are some cheap Chinese ones on Ebay. I got a rather decent TI Raleigh 1980's copy for £20.

You just need the matching bike...

That's rather lovely! Wish I had £2500 to burn.

Really don't fancy a 10 speed cassette with those shifters mind!

Shame they didn't get Campag to make a 1980s groupset for it - but of a miss-mash of bits on it.

Cyclist magazine had a whole article about the bike this month.

That reminds me, I have an original late 80s early 90s banesto top. Miguel Indurain era.

It still fits but its a bit tight. I keep meaning to frame it and put it on the wall.
