By Joe Hall • 16th February 2012 12:49pm • Posted in Products

The time of unveiling is almost upon us. All the latest designs, new components and revitalised colourways for Spring Summer 2012 will shortly be revealed. So to whet your curiosity, here are some sneak shots of the products that will make spring and summer 2012 a season of endless riding and racing. And if it isn't obvious from the photography, below are some cryptic descriptions.

• Stay faster and cooler than a cucumber with UCI points in this new colour update.

• Summer road-riding favourite Inspired by a Giro winner who took the yellow jersey from the Normand Gourmand.

• Bowler hats and time trials in the dark, bagpipes and daffodils, all in the weft of a nation.

• The finest tailors, the greatest street food, and 19 World Champions of la strada in one piece of performance roadwear.

• Inhale and exhale in perfect comfort as you ride homeward towards the second planet from the sun.

• No need for hats off even in the hottest battles, Rapha have it covered in weightless abundance.

My guesses:
1)Italian country jersey in Azzuri blue
2) Irish country jersey
3) Club jersey with pink to celebrate the Giro
4) Lightweight jersey with new blue/green colour

How's that?

Ooh! Exciting! I saw some of the new products at a Rapha Ride here in Sydney (attended by the CEO, Simon Mottram, no less!

I'm going to take an educated, slightly cheating guess at some that I know! A super lightweight summer jersey in honour of the Olympics, Paul Smith and/or Giro Jersey (??), GB Country Jersey.

Can't wait to order the GB Country Jersey!

Peter Richards

Oops, my mistake, obviously, the GB Country Jersey is in honour of the Olympics, not the Super Lightweight…..

More pro (team) gear I do hope!
Ie: full zips; longer sleeve length; tighter waist bands; great (slim) fit.
Love it. Super stylish and incredibly comfortable.

Please?

Deep blue lightweight? That would be sweet!

5 out of 6 ain't bad! Ireland Country Jersey and chartreuse Pro Team Jersey are the pick of the bunch for me…
