N2 - We report on hypocycloid core shaped hollow-core Kagome fiber with a record loss of 70 dB/km at a spectral range of around 750-850 nm, which is compatible with Cs and Rb based applications. The fiber exhibits a single mode operation in a core diameter as large as 40~ \mu{\rm m}, and very low sensitivity to bend. We show experimentally that the bending-loss is limited by coupling between the guiding core mode and the modes in the cladding holes.
