Grateful to hang out with @greenmonkeyvelo a few weeks ago while in Rotorua. A cold but fun morning.
The Whakarewarewa forest was so nice at sunrise. A very cool part of New Zealand.
We have been loving our Green Monkey suits, super comfortable and great colours. We didn’t make it easy for people to tell us apart though 🤪
Whakarewarewa forest on a crisp morning at sunrise = some pretty cool photo opportunities with the @greenmonkeyvelo team!
Falling off at the Rosebank River Crossing on the same crisp morning was not so fun - but worth it 🥶
The Twilight just landed.
New colourway in the Swift Aero, our top-tier race jersey with the raised aero ribs on the sleeves, making you slice through the wind. Above 35km/h you can feel the difference, and the watt meter agrees.
We named this one after the time of day the photo was taken. Kyle was out riding during the golden hour around the Cambridge region, sun about twenty minutes off the horizon. The colours on the jersey looked like they'd been painted to match the sky. Couldn't have shot it at a better moment.
The pink Alba Optics he's holding are no accident either. We have these in stock now, the Delta in Fluo Pink, and they're a near-perfect match for the Twilight jersey. If you want the full look, both are live on the site now.
Pre-order open for the jersey. Shipping June. Bio link for the jersey and the glasses.

70km/h. Tucked. Committed.
When you're screaming down a New Zealand backroad, the last thing you want is 'rim flex' or twitchy handling. You need a setup that tracks like it's on rails.
It's the physics of the "Snap." Lower rotational weight means when you kick on a steep climb, the bike reacts instantly. There's no lag. Combine that with CeramicSpeed bearings, and the friction essentially disappears. It's silent, it's smooth, and it's fast.
Getting the right wheels is the difference between hovering over your brakes and carving the apex.
Jersey: GreenMonkey Swift Aero (New).
Bottoms: Our Sew-Free Bib Shorts (The premium standard).
Details: Aero Black socks + @udog.cc shoes. @albaoptics@abus_cycling

Easter Sunday. 270km of beautiful suffering. Who’s watching? 🇧🇪🚴♂️
The Kwaremont. The Paterberg. The cobbles don't care about your watts or your budget; they only care if you showed up with the right attitude.
Watching Pogačar, MVDP, and Van Aert go head-to-head for the first time in nearly three years is going to be pure theatre!
I’m leaning towards MVDP, but it’s too close to call. Who’s your pick for the top step on Sunday? 👇
At GreenMonkey, we build kit for that exact mindset. The design is the easy part. The miles you put in wearing it—the pre-sunrise road loops, the Whaka Forest trails, or the local club race—that’s the real investment. 🏔️
If you’re putting yourself through "beautiful suffering" this autumn, you need a chamois that can actually handle the distance. We used Italian Dolomiti tech for exactly this reason. 🇮🇹
✨ THE STATUS: 40 pairs of our new premium NEXUS bibs landed in NZ last week. Now only 20 remain. .
If you want to secure yours before the next production run, the time is now.
Whether you're racing the Classics or just racing the sunset, do it in kit that belongs to you.

Some rides are for the data... or Strava!
This one's for the soul. 🌅
That moment you stop, look out at the horizon, and remember exactly why you started riding in the first place, that's the feeling we design for.
Custom kit. Your colours. Your crew.
