Let’s be careful out there. The top below shows something that looks like it’s for the fittest fella on the planet. Cycling tops range from “very” figure hugging pro tops to an old bit of lycra you bought 10 years ago. Here at 4D , for middle aged men, we prefer to think comfort, fit and style together Here are some factors to consider when choosing a lycra cycling top:

• Fabric: The fabric of the jersey is important for both comfort and performance. Look for a jersey that is made from a lightweight, breathable fabric that will wick away moisture.

• Fit: The fit of the jersey is also important. A jersey that is too tight will be uncomfortable, while a jersey that is too loose will flap in the wind and restrict your movement. Look for a jersey that has a relaxed fit that allows you to move freely.

• Features: Some jerseys come with additional features, such as a zipped chest pocket or a reflective strip. These features can be helpful, but they are not essential.

• Price: Lycra cycling tops can range in price from around £40 to £200. It is important to set a budget before you start shopping.
