From the fantastic quality of the materials to the well considered design, this is a masterpiece of engineering! The ability to tailor the ventilation in both amount and distribution, the wind proofing and the water repellency all work like a charm. Very comfortable aero fit and true to size. The usual 3 pocket system to the rear is supplemented by an extra 2 with an additional zippered pocket on the outer face of the right, making a total of six!. If it sounds like I’m gushing, it’s probably because I am. Loads of positive feedback from the club members and one admiring look from a woman ( my grandma ).

Look good and fits me well. Arm length, front and tail length all are spot on. Venting works well and easy to change on the bike. This will be toasty on cold days.   I like The separate  gilet, which makes the temp range of this wider than other jackets I have. I also like the extra height on the back of the collar.  For me, I’d prefer tighter cuffs and a slightly tighter neck, but these are minor niggles. Once I figure out the right combos of baselayer and gilet, I think this will be my go-to for the next 5 months.
