The 1986 Tour de France was a very reluctant passing of the torch. Hinault, forever the Badger, originally promised to help Lemond take the top step in the GC, but after feeling stronger than he expected, he challenged Lemond only to be shown that Lemond really was the stronger rider. Alpe d'Huez Kit celebrates one of the most iconic climbs in the history of the Tour de France where Hinault and Lemond finish side by side after Hinault realizes the Lemond has taken the mantle from his shoulders.

Completely black, the Kit features an exquisite insert in the distinctive Via Claire colors, a tribute to one of the most successful jerseys ever. 1986 remains an indelible chapter in the history of the Via Claire at the Tour de France. Wearing the Alpe d'Huez jersey also means embracing the greatness of the Via Claire and reliving the emotion of an indelible moment in cycling history.
