Prime: The LM3 and CF3 Kit, Head to Toe
Prime is our performance line. Here's every piece, from the LM3 and CF3 jerseys to the base layer and shoe covers, and how to layer them.

Built with the rider in mind.
Prime is our performance line. It came out of years of small improvements to how our kit fits and works, and it's one of our most complete kits: two jerseys, bib shorts, a skinsuit, a gilet, a cap, a base layer and shoe covers, all designed to be worn together.
The jerseys
LM3, the men's jersey
A clean white race-cut jersey with a small black dot pattern. The front and sleeves are soft LUXE 135 GSM fabric that wicks sweat fast, and the other panels are lighter Luna 115 GSM for hot days and hard efforts. A hidden key pocket sits beside the three rear pockets, and a reflective tag helps you get seen in low light. Sizes XS to 2XL. Shop the LM3 jersey.
CF3, the women's jersey
Pink hibiscus and palm leaves over a black zigzag print. The back panel is 10% lighter and more ventilated to help you stay cool, a hidden zipped fourth pocket keeps your cash, keys or card safe, and a silicone gripper holds the hem in place when you're in the drops. Women's XS to 2XL. Shop the CF3 jersey.
Bibs and skinsuit
The LM3 bib shorts are charcoal grey with white straps. We tested over a hundred chamois and 50 fabrics to get here: the Cytech Endurance 2.5 HD chamois is good for rides up to 7 hours, with 12 mm of padding where you need it and only 3 mm where you need to move, on Miti Shield 240 GSM fabric with a 7.5 cm Forza silicone leg band.
The LM3 skinsuit is the same look in one piece, made for maximum speed: more aerodynamic fabric at the shoulders, breathable stretch fabric on the torso and compression lycra on the legs, two mesh rear pockets and an Italian Elastic Interface chamois built for rides of seven hours or more.
The layers
- Prime base layer: 75 GSM Italian fabric, about half the weight of a jersey. It pulls sweat off your skin, so you stay warmer on descents and cooler on climbs.
- LM3 gilet: a dark brown wind vest with a full zip to vent and two rear pockets under a moisture flap.
- Prime shoe covers: 240 GSM fabric for rides below 55°F (13°C), with heel and cleat openings and a rear zip.
- LM3 cycling cap: light Cool Air 140 GSM fabric. Wear it under your helmet or off the bike.
How to layer Prime
- Hot day: jersey and bibs, with the cap under your helmet.
- Cool morning: add the base layer under the jersey and the gilet on top.
- Cold ride: base layer, jersey, gilet and shoe covers. Cold toes end rides early.
