Gobik takes aerodynamics to the next level with SUPERSONICA, its fastest collection to date

Gobik has officially presented SUPERSONICA, a new collection developed for top-level competition that aims to squeeze every available watt when speeds exceed 45 km/h. The Spanish brand has worked on this project alongside WorldTour teams and top cyclists like Filippo Ganna, relying on an extensive wind tunnel testing program to optimize each garment in the set.

Gobik bets on the science of speed with its new SUPERSONICA collection

The new range is born under the premise that in modern cycling aerodynamics no longer solely depends on the bicycle. According to data presented by Gobik, the cyclist's body and their equipment account for nearly 77% of total aerodynamic drag, far ahead of elements like the helmet or wheels.  

More than 30 sessions in the wind tunnel

To develop SUPERSONICA, Gobik conducted over 30 testing sessions in the Silverstone wind tunnel. The goal was not to optimize a single position or a specific situation, but to ensure that the garments maintained high aerodynamic efficiency at different speeds, positions, and wind angles.  

The result is a complete collection that combines competition suits, base layers, and accessories designed to function as a single aerodynamic system.

Among the most striking data is the new MACH TT time trial suit, which combined with the BOUNDARY base layer saves between 15 and 18 watts compared to the previous time trial suit from the brand at high speeds.

On the other hand, the new STRATOS road suit improves aerodynamic efficiency by up to 10% compared to the Madison model it replaces, also offering more stable performance when the wind changes direction or blows from the side.  

A collection designed as a complete system

Beyond the suits, Gobik has developed a whole ecosystem of products aimed at reducing air resistance in traditionally difficult areas to optimize.

The DRAG shoe covers have been designed to smooth airflow around the foot and ankle, one of the areas that generates the most turbulence on the bike. According to the brand, they can provide an additional aerodynamic saving of between 5 and 8 watts.

The collection is completed with the BOUNDARY base layer, which uses three-dimensional panels to modify airflow behavior over the outer garment; the KINETIC gloves, which use structured 3D fabrics to improve aerodynamic management in the hands; and the PINKIE socks, specifically designed to integrate with the DRAG shoe covers without creating fabric overlaps that could hinder performance.  

Aerodynamics gains weight in modern cycling

The presentation of SUPERSONICA comes at a time when aerodynamics has become one of the main fields of development within professional cycling. The data shared by Gobik shows that at speeds close to 45 km/h, aerodynamic drag can account for more than 90% of the power generated by a cyclist.

In this context, small improvements can translate into real differences on the clock. The brand itself reminds us that a saving of just one watt can represent around ten seconds in a 40-kilometer time trial contested at high speed.  

The new Gobik SUPERSONICA collection is now available through the brand's international network of distributors and its online sales channels.
