Apex+ Lite Jersey
$128.00
Tried and tested on grueling Grand Tours, the Apex + Lite is made for training and racing in the hottest conditions. Super lightweight and incredibly breathable, the jersey is entirely constructed with an open weave, four-way stretch fabric with excellent airflow and ventilation.
Updating the cut of the jersey, set-in sleeves allow for a closer and aerodynamic fit, and a silicone-injected, wideband front hem keeps the jersey in place while riding. A low profile collar helps you stay cool in the heat, and three rear storage pockets provide ample space for ride essentials.

I really love to tight aero fit of this jersey. Snug in all the right places and doesn’t blow in the wind.

This is a very aero form fitting jersey. The zippered credit card sized pocket on the right side back pocket is a useful touch. Back pockets were too high on the 2017 version but this has been corrected on the current Apex light jersey.

This jersey is form fitting and relatively snug without being too tight. The sleeves come within an inch or two of the elbow and miraculously stay in place throughout my races and training rides, something that I cannot say about any jersey that I have worn in the past. The mesh-style fabric ventilates incredibly well, even in very hot temperatures. And most importantly of course, as a serious racer, the jersey feels highly aerodynamic, with no bunching up or rippling in the wind. I just feel fast wearing it. This jersey is seriously amazing.

Apex Lite is my go to jersey. The feel of the agile fabric on the skin is incredible so even though it is designed to be a warm/hot weather garment, I wear it year round and layer accordingly. Our apex jerseys do run on the small side, most people including myself size up from what we would wear in Tech or Performance lines.

How's the fit? Too Small: I would order a larger size.

From the 2019 collection, I own an Apex Pro, Lite, Summer and Aero. The Lite is very snug overall, especially the arms. I suggest a size below your Tech or Performance jersey size. The Pro, Summer and Aero fit much closer to the Tech and Performance, being more “race” than the standard race fit jerseys. Our team worked with Jesse Petersen, and he was very helpful in all aspects of helping us with product selection.

The Apex Lite is my year round go to jersey. It’s excellent with a baselayer from 65-80 degrees. Super cool with no baselayer when the temps get really warm. It also makes a great winter baselayer under jackets and is right at home indoors on the trainer. The Apex Lite is also, as the name implies, super light. People always want a lighter bike but what about a lighter kit? Top notch on all marks

I’ve used summer jerseys from a few different brands and the Apex Lite handily outperforms the others. The airflow is fantastic. I rarely unzip the jersey while riding – even when it’s in the 90’s. The jersey has a true aero fit but since the material has tons of 4 way stretch there is zero restrictive or tight areas. The rear pockets are made of a heavier material which helps keep cargo from shifting around – a really nice touch!
