MAAP has launched its latest jersey, the Pro Aero, which it claims will save you between 6 and 8 watts, equivalent to as much as 60 seconds over 100km, thanks to its aero features.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new jersey has been developed alongside the Jayco AlUla<\/a> men\u2019s and Liv AlUla Jayco<\/a> women\u2019s WorldTour pro teams, which are kitted out by MAAP. <\/p>\n

Between them, the two teams have scored four victories during the 2025 season, including Ben O\u2019Connor\u2019s summit win on the Col de la Loze on Stage 18<\/a> of the Tour de France.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"The aero ribs are woven into the sleeves, so MAAP says they won’t degrade over time. <\/p>\n

MAAP uses a proprietary thin aero fabric, which it calls Aatero Flyte, which includes woven ribs in the sleeves that it claims reduce airflow turbulence. <\/p>\n

MAAP says its new fabric was the culmination of testing of 16 prototypes and is only 20 microns thick, with a weight of 100g\/m2.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The bad news is MAAP says the aero gains are only achieved at riding speeds of over 40km\/h. The good news is it states the aero features are woven into the fabric, and so are permanent and won\u2019t wear out or degrade over time.<\/p>\n

\"\"The low-cut collar is designed for comfort. <\/p>\n

Other features designed to make you faster include raw hems to the sleeves with internal silicone grippers, hydrophobic fibres to increase evaporative cooling, an ergonomic collar and bonded rear pockets.<\/p>\n

MAAP says the new jersey<\/a>, made in Italy, has a lower environmental impact too, thanks to an elastomer made without solvents that reduces chemical use during production, and is more durable and more easily recycled.<\/p>\n

You can purchase the MAAP Pro Aero jersey from MAAP\u2019s site, its Lab stores and retailers of its clothing, priced at \u00a3210 \/ $265 \/ \u20ac220 \/ AU$345. It\u2019s available in MAAP\u2019s usual men\u2019s S to XXL and women\u2019s XXS to XL sizing, and in the purple and green colours shown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"MAAP has launched its latest jersey, the Pro Aero, which it claims will save you between 6 and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":214800,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[4985,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-214799","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cycling","8":"tag-cycling","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/214799","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=214799"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/214799\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/214800"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=214799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=214799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=214799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
