Colombia's men cycling team have revealed their very own controversial new kit this week after their female counterparts were snapped in their very own shockers.

The first glance at Colombia's female cycling team would have one thinking that they are naked from the waist down, but the men are also not behind as they will wear a similar getup, the Mirror reported.

Most internet users might have seen the funny side of the female kit, but one prominent figure in British cycling has taken a more serious stance. Former President of British Cycling and current President of the Union Cycliste Internationale, Brian Cookson, has branded the outfit as unacceptable.

Cookson tweeted that to the many who have raised the issue of a certain women's team kit, they are on the case, adding that it is unacceptable by any standard of decency.

The new uniform of Columbian women's cycling team that includes a skin-coloured strip through the private area has provoked quite a rage on social media.

The women cyclists made a debut with their uniform at a major race in Italy over the weekend.

Italian cycling website Tutobiciweb published an article on the issue that was headlined 'how sad'.

There were immediate reactions on Twitter where users criticized the uniform.

One user tweeted saying that the uniform was horrible and that the whole outfit was unfortunate.

The team was backed by Columbia's ministry of sport and the nation's capital city of Bagota had sponsored them.
