Summer riding sounds easy—sunshine, smooth roads, and light gear. But cyclist knows that’s not the whole story. One minute, it is blazing heat and the next, there’s wind, sweat, or even a sudden rainstorm. If your gear isn’t ready, your ride can quickly go downhill.

Sweat Control That Keeps You Focused
Let’s be honest—summer rides are sweaty. But overheating can kill performance and wet fabric sticking to your body is every cyclist’s nightmare. That’s where the HEATR2 shines.

Every panel of this jersey is engineered with intention: from sweat-wicking chest and sleeve areas to breathable mesh zones in the back and shoulders. The result?
