The store is open through Monday, September 4, 2023. Production will start shortly after the store closes, and items will be delivered in 7 – 8 weeks after that date. Please review the store navigation and clothes fitting advice under NOTES below. You will have the chance to try on sample clothes at three fitting sessions at BCC and MJT club rides – refer to the ride calendar for the dates and times. If any session is rained out, it will be rescheduled for the following week and the calendar will be updated.

NOTES (sizing and other details)
- Shipping charges: You can save a lot on shipping charges by combining multiple items into one order. Last year shipping was about $14 for a single jersey – this year it’s gone down to just over $9. Each additional item in the same order only adds a few cents to the shipping cost.
- Ignore the “MY ACCOUNT” link at the top of the page. You do not need to have an account on the Ascend web site to order clothes.
- Jersey Details:
- Both the Elevate and Volare Elite style jerseys are available in two designs: Main (traditional) and Retro.
-
Jersey fit: The Sport Cut fit is normal, and the Relaxed Cut fit is a little more roomy. If you want to match the fit of an old Club Cut jersey (Club Cut is no longer available), select a Relaxed Cut jersey one size larger than the Club Cut jersey. For example, a Medium Club Cut jersey = a Large Relaxed Cut jersey.
- All jerseys are available in short sleeve, long sleeve and sleeveless – there’s a drop-down selection list on each shirt’s description page.
- The jerseys have a full-length front zipper that detaches.
- The jerseys have a vertical zipper on the right rear pocket.
- Jacket/Vest Details:
- Sizing: Jackets/vests have the same fit as Sport Cut jerseys for men and women. If you fit in a Large Sport Cut Jersey, you could get a Large jacket/vest. If you fit in a Relaxed Cut jersey, you could get a jacket/vest one size larger (if you wear a Large Relaxed Cut jersey, you could get an Extra-Large jacket/vest).
NOTE: This sizing advice is only valid if you fit comfortably (not too snugly) in your jersey, or if you don’t plan to wear multiple layers under the jacket/vest. I wear a Large Sport Cut jersey. I bought a Large wind jacket last spring, and at that time it fit comfortably. Last summer I gained a little weight in the middle. The jersey still fit well, but the jacket was a little uncomfortably tight. Jersey fabric stretches, jacket/vest fabric doesn’t. I might have bought an XL if I knew how snug the Large jacket would fit. Good news is that I lost a couple of pounds in the winter and now the jacket fits. - Wind jackets/vests are thin and have very sheer and breathable backs. Each jacket has a toggle and cord on the center rear pocket so it can be folded into the pocket and closed into a pouch. No pocket zippers.
- Thermal jackets/vests are heavy and should be quite warm. They have a vertical zipper on the right rear pocket. No toggles.
- Bib/Short Details:
- The main page only shows pictures of bib shorts. You can select either bib or plain shorts on each short/bib description page.
Happy ordering!
