BMX Jersey Black Friday: long sleeve discounts
A BMX jersey in Black Friday is first checked at the sleeves: for racing, they need to cover the wrists, while a short-sleeved jersey is only suitable for dirt, park, or pump track. The promotions of the event, which run throughout November, are then compared at the same size, adult or child, and the same cut, loose enough to fit over protection.
Long or short sleeves: usage first
This page brings together race jerseys and leisure jerseys. The Rayce and the Radium from Fly Racing, the Lightning from Radio Race, the team jersey from Chase or Inspyre have long sleeves, as required by the federal regulations on the track. The Super D from Fly Racing, a short-sleeved MTB jersey, is suitable for dirt or park sessions but not for a race. Finally, the women's Ella jersey from Silvini is a road jersey, which is not allowed in BMX competitions.
Compare two discounts on a BMX jersey
A promotion is comparable when the usage, cut, and size are the same. A team jersey features the design of the brand's team and often changes colour: two crossed-out prices on the same jersey refer to different graphics, not different pieces. For a child, check on the product page that the discount applies to the junior size, noted separately, and choose a fit that allows for a back protector or elbow pads.
The BMX jersey brands in the operation
Chase, a BMX race brand whose team includes Olympic champion Connor Fields, offers the long-sleeved jersey of this team in child sizes.
Fly Racing categorises its jerseys by usage: the Rayce, versatile between track and trail, the long-sleeved Radium for racing, the Universal for children, and the Super D for MTB.
Inspyre, a French BMX race brand based in Saint-Symphorien-sur-Coise, Rhône, offers the long-sleeved jersey of its team, the Bias version.
Kenny offers the Track Raw, a jersey from its motocross range, which is accepted in BMX racing.
Complete the outfit during the operation
Outside of Black Friday, the BMX jersey page details the regulations and size selection. During the operation, the jersey can be paired with BMX pants and long gloves from the same category. The discounted MTB jerseys are suitable for trail rides, and the previous team designs are available for clearance.
Frequently asked questions
How to choose the size of a BMX jersey as a gift?
Measure the chest circumference on a top that fits well and compare it to the brand's size chart. In a riding position, with arms extended, the sleeves should cover the wrists: if in doubt, the longest arm size is the safest choice.
Is a short-sleeved jersey accepted in BMX racing?
No, in competition, the sleeves must extend to the wrists. A short-sleeved jersey remains suitable for freestyle, where no specific outfit is required.
Why is a BMX jersey so loose?
To accommodate a back protector or elbow pads without pulling on the shoulders, and to allow for free arm movement when the bike moves under the rider. A fit that is too tight rides up in the back when in the riding position.
Why do we talk about Black Friday?
The term is American: it refers to the day after Thanksgiving, which kicks off the holiday shopping season there. The event has taken hold in France, and Vélo-Store extends the discounts throughout November, with pages for each activity, including this one.
How to care for a BMX jersey?
Turn it inside out before washing, in cold water, with other sports clothing and without fabric softener. Air drying preserves the print on the jersey, which is sensitive to heat.
