Animal are proud to roll into their 20th Anniversary year with the formation of the new Animal Commencal international mountain bike team and enter a new chapter with long-term team riders Dan, Gee and Rachel Atherton.
The UK freesport clothing brand is excited to unveil the 1st pictures of the new team race kit designed by Animal’s in house design department. Inspiration for the kit was taken from Animal’s original zebra stripe Velcro watch strap of 1987. As part of Animal’s 20th anniversary, selected team riders from pro teams across board and bike sports will carry exclusive zebra graphics. To complete the look Animal’s design department has generated the entire team look including, the Animal Commencal logo and bike decals. Over the forth coming weeks expect to see all new team truck designs, Dan Atherton’s helmet, posters and post cards.
Beautiful! I graduated high school in 87 and used to have the zebra watch band. Yea, old bird! But after competing for 3 years in XC and winning the championship, I think I want to experience DH. My first true race will be May 5th at Duryea in Reading PA. Hope to live up to podium positions and getting more women to enjoy the thrills of mountain biking! NJ Jess
