Mountain biking kit has evolved considerably since the 70's. We've gone from wearing skin-tight kit with no helmets (what road racing was wearing at the time), to light decipline-specific clothing and protection full of technologies. So not only has the style changed (for the better?) but the safety has improved with it. Explore the different styles through the ages with Anna Cipullo as she shares some insight on why the changes were made.
