Leatt Gravity 8.0 MTB Jersey V26 Downhill Racing Performance Jersey

The Leatt Gravity 8.0 MTB Jersey V26 represents a sophisticated fusion of performance engineering and rider comfort, meticulously developed to meet the demands of serious downhill mountain bikers. Engineered in partnership with Pivot Factory Racing, this jersey integrates advanced textile technologies and ergonomic design to deliver a superior racing experience. Its innovative construction features a regular-fit torso paired with compression-fit sleeves, utilising a seamless 3D-knit technique that offers a second-skin sensation, enhancing both mobility and aerodynamic efficiency essential for competitive performance.

Crafted from IceYarn fabric in the torso, the jersey inherently resists static build-up and bacterial growth, ensuring the rider remains fresh and comfortable throughout intense sessions. The sleeves incorporate CoWeave and Deflextion technologies, which provide targeted ventilation and reinforced durability without compromising weight. Laser-cut perforations further improve airflow, while the collarless, welded neckline minimises irritation and excess fabric. These thoughtful design elements, combined with the use of bluesign® approved materials, underscore Leatt’s commitment to quality, sustainability, and rider wellbeing.

Designed for riders who prioritise reliability and functionality, the Gravity 8.0 Jersey excels in aggressive riding scenarios by adapting to every movement with its 4-way stretch fabric. This ensures optimal breathability and moisture management, making it suitable for high-intensity downhill runs. Additionally, the jersey’s eco-conscious packaging aligns with modern environmental standards, reflecting a responsible approach to product development.
