Do you like to use your bike for city trips or light off-road routes, but would rather not spend the entire day in Lycra? Then with Transit, Shimano has the solution for you. The Shimano Transit clothing and shoes line means you will enjoy all the benefits of top-grade cycling gear, yet with a much more stylish appearance.
SUITED BOTH FOR ON YOUR BIKE AND OFF IT

The Transit collection comprises garments that are specifically made for cyclists but that do not look like it. So you can comfortably use the elegant clothing off the bike too. With the Transit collection, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds: while cycling, you wear top-grade quality cycle gear, yet when you step off your bike you won't need to change thanks to the tasteful design.
