Royal Race jersey
Royal Racing's Race jersey has hints of motocross styling that will have you looking like you should be in a start gate waiting for the beeps. Royal Racing uses a moisture wicking fabric that does well when you are working up a sweat, as well as a soft lycra neck collar that won't feel like it's chafing you after a long day on the bike. Mesh underarm vents help air to pass through the jersey as you are moving and the forearms feature built in soft pads in case the gap between those trees is a bit skinnier than you had thought. The Race jersey is available in three colors: the purple shown here, as well as both red and black options.

Royal Race jersey built in pads
 | I liked the the Race jersey's long padded sleeves for the extra bit of protection they offered, but the jersey also stayed cool enough on hot days due to its vented mesh side panels - but I did find that the sleeves were a bit long for an otherwise great fitting jersey. - Jordan Holmes |

Royal Race short
The Race short from Royal Racing have a shorter race inspired cut that won't hinder pedaling at all if you're wearing knee pads, as well as a crotch that won't catch on the saddle in those heated moments when the terrain gets steep. Just like the Royal Racing jersey pictured above, the Race short takes design cues from our two wheeled motorized cousins with its heavy duty two button fly enclosure and a stout zippered fly with protective flap. There are Velcro waist tab adjusters and an elastic waist band that let you dial in the fit, as well as zippered pockets and a coccyx (
thats your tailbone) pad incase you loop out while doing wheelies in the parking lot. Inside you'll find a wicking liner to help keep you comfortable when things get hot. The Race short is available in three colors: the purple shown here, as well as both red and black options that match the respective Race jersey.

Royal Race short adjustable waist
 | I liked the heavy duty nature of the Race short and it played nice with my knee pads, not something I can say of shorts that use a longer or more relaxed cut - but look elsewhere if your local climate is on the hot side. - Jordan Holmes |

Royal Pro glove
The Royal Racing Pro glove matches well with the Race line shown above and is available in the same three color options (purple, red, and black). It strikes a good balance between protection and breathability with rubberized knuckle sections and mesh finger side panels. The palm uses vented Clarino and is quite thin with no padding. Both braking fingers get the silicone treatment and you'll find a soft snot wipe on the thumb as well. The cuff is short, but uses a Velcro tab to adjust.

- Thin Clarino palm
- Reinforced palm patches
- Four way stretch material
- Vented finger side panels
- TPR detailing
- Colors: purple (shown), red, black
