Q36.5 Team Gelato – Ice cream for the street
Whether in pink, a colourful design or the Pro version: Q36.5’s Gelato jerseys bring a summery feel to every ride.

Q36.5 Gregarius Pro Team Gelato
This jersey is pure summer fun on two wheels: the playful ice-cream print meets a highly functional road cycling design.

A jersey for riders who prioritise performance – but with a touch of humour >> available here.
Attaquer W ROSE Racing Circle Jersey
The Rose jersey stands out thanks to its eye-catching circle design, which creates a modern, sporty look. The bold ‘watermelon’ colour emphasises its fresh, dynamic character and makes it a real head-turner on every ride. At the same time, the fabric is designed for high performance: a lightweight, breathable technical fabric that wicks moisture away quickly and, thanks to elasticated panels, is designed to provide a very close-fitting, comfortable fit. >> available here.
Q36.5 Women’s Gregarius Pro Team Gelato
The women’s version combines the same technical sophistication with a women’s-specific fit. Lightweight, breathable and featuring honeycomb mesh on the back, it is designed to keep you comfortably dry even during intense summer rides. The ribbed aero sleeves are also designed to enhance performance, whilst the all-over print makes a fresh, stylish statement. A jersey for female cyclists who want to combine comfort, performance and fun. The jersey is available here.
Q36.5 Gregarius Team Gelato Signature Collection
The Signature Edition is the most playful variant in the Gelato range: colourful, cheerful and full of energy. The ice-cream print on the jersey – which is partly made from recycled material – instantly lifts your spirits. Micro-perforated fabrics and aerodynamic raglan sleeves are designed to support serious training performance. The jersey is designed to reliably regulate body temperature and, thanks to its close-fitting cut, fit like a second skin. A real treat – and not just visually >> available here.
