Medium weight waterproof?

I've got a long ride (24hrs+ non-stop) coming up in April and given the time of year I'm expecting some rain. I've got a rather heavyweight commuter waterproof and an Altura Pocket Rocket that I carry in my jersey for the odd shower.
I'm looking for something inbetween that will keep me dry for the duration without feeling like I'm wearing an overcoat.
The Altura Vapour and the Endura Flyte look ok and this Decathlon seems good too -

Any tips on a good option??
Haven't really got a budget but sanity should prevail when it comes to price!

I know this might be a little lightweight, but I swear by these, I use it for hill walking, riding and pretty much everything else.

They pack down to about the size of an apple, weigh nothing and are waterproof, plus I am a bit of a montane kit whore0 -
