FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it is constructed from a fully seam-sealed 3-layer waterproof fabric designed for severe mountain biking conditions.

Can I wear this jacket with a backpack?

Absolutely. The jacket features backpack-compatible vents and silicone shoulder grippers designed to handle pack usage.

Does it have a hood?

Yes, it features a 3D adjustable, helmet-compatible hood for maximum protection.

What does 'PFC-free' mean?

It means the fabric is manufactured without toxic perfluorinated chemicals, making it safer for the environment.

How should I wash it?

Use a specialized technical cleaner in a gentle cycle and avoid fabric softeners.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric surface rather than beading off.

The DWR coating has worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray-on treatment.

Internal condensation builds up during high-intensity climbing.

Ensure all ventilation zips are fully open before starting your climb to maximize airflow.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Industry-leading waterproof performance for wet weather riding
  • Excellent breathability given the durable nature of the fabric
  • Backpack-compatible venting system prevents overheating
  • Reinforced shoulders improve longevity during frequent backpack use

Cons

  • Heavier than minimalist wind-shell jackets
  • More expensive than entry-level cycling rain gear
  • Specific fit requires accurate sizing for mobility

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the technical performance of your jacket, adhere to the following guidelines:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure the 3D hood is adjusted while wearing your helmet to prevent vision obstruction.
  2. Layering: Wear as an outer shell over thermal base layers or light jerseys depending on the temperature.
  3. Cleaning: Wash in cold water using a technical gear detergent specifically designed for waterproof membranes. Avoid standard fabric softeners as they can strip the water-repellent coating.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically refresh the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating with a spray-on treatment once you notice water no longer beads on the surface of the fabric.
