    These Etxeondo jackets are great, just a base layer needed under one. This Ebay site seem to have all the sizes.

    The sizings seem a bit odd....i'd normally buy a 42-44" top...would you go with X Large which is rated at 42"?

    The quality of these are great. They are normally £80. I got one for £40 from another ebay supplier. I am 5'11' 40'' chest and a large is a nice snug fit
    Great value at the amount they are currently at - £16. Can't go wrong there.


    Same site check out the Alura windstopper really good prices here

    I bought an Endura Stealth at this year's Bike show - and it's fantastic. It's waterproof, windproof, warm, and I just wear it with the long sleeve base layer. If it really nippy I add a buff round my neck to keep out the wind. Having the pit zips is also a good feature. If it's warm though I think it'll be too hot, but on chilly days when it may also rain I think it's bang on.

    I also have a stealth - great top, it does ride up at the back very easily though and all of the literature which implies that it's breathable LIES.It's great other than that, but if i were to have the choice again i'd probably go for the gore stealth-alike jacket (can't remember what it's called, but it's in this month's C+) as it's £35 cheaper and comes with an integral scarf/buff.

    I was very much glad of both my Assos airblock jacket and my element zero gilet today.
    I like bikes...
