OK, this was going to wait until the Autumn, but what with the weather being so appauling, I think it's time to do it now. I need a decent waterproof which i can stash in a jersey pocket, preferably of a tight-fitting style and as breathable as possible. Any recommendations? I was looking at the Altura Strada, but there's all sorts out there.

    ive got a starda jacket. its pretty good. screws up easily into my back pocket, and is nice and light.

    its nice to wear, keeps you dry, but like all jackets, makes you sweat after a bit!

    only problem is that its a bit baggy in the sleeves!

    apart from that, great jacket!

    Bit more expensive than the Strada, but I have got an Altura Crosslite. Had to use it more then I would have liked recently :( but it does the job. Keeps the rain out and I don't seem to sweat too much. Got good reviews in both C+ and Cycling Weekly. Link to these reviews and others below.
