Good MTB jacket for rainy days
Excellent jacket. Nice and light and good shower resistance. Would have liked a back pocket as the front pocket is small. Looks good on and off the bike. Price a bit high for this type.

Great all round jacket
I bought this primarily for commuting and I have been surprised at how warm it keeps me now the weather has turned. It’s very light, very comfortable - not restrictive at all and keeps away the wind and light showers. I haven’t used the hood yet but sure it will come in useful. Only qualm would be when you’re not wearing the hood it flaps around a little so I tend to roll it up - shame there isn’t a tie or zipped collar to stow it when not being used but otherwise an excellent jacket. Also very comfortable and suitable for wearing off the bike!

Great jacket for bikepacking!
I bought this jacket for bikepacking rather than MTB. It can be stored directly on the frame of my gravelbike for when I need some extra wind protection or warmth during stops. I have not tried it in rain yet since I usually carry a dedicated rain jacket as well. It looks great and the fit is excellent (181 cm, 80 km size M). Can also be used off-bike as a layer on top of a t-shirt etc and look representable!

Lightweight, packs up small and keeps warm start
Love that it packs up so easy, as it's usually warmer in the trails and i start with it on but take it off fairly quickly once things warm up. Strapping it to the frame is a great way to have it at the ready

Just okay, but with cost
Nice lightweight, love the look but it's super expensive for what it is and missing pockets. Only one pocket on the breast.

Unexpected....
I was honestly surprised by this. When I took it from the packet, it felt too light to be useful. But It's actually such a well fitting and purposeful jacket. Even in some winter riding, throwing it on over a long-sleeve winter top helps you build up a bit of warmth in the early stages of your ride. And it's going to be even better come the spring!
And even off the saddle?! It's just a truly stylish item!

Good but has a problem
A nice lightweight jacket, however it could do with something to secure the hood, as it blows about when not in use and this is annoying.

Superlight, super-packable.
Definitely the most packable, lightest-weight biking-specific windshell I've ever owned. Great for rides that are in-between "do I need a jacket or not?" territory. Easy to pack up and strap to your frame, or fit in even the smallest of fanny packs.
Breathable and comfortable. Good for a light rain, don't expect to stay dry in a downpour.

My new go to jacket, top drawer effort from Rapha
Superb quality as always, have worn this jacket on a few rides now and dealt well with light rain, breathable but warm and even survived me sliding across the pavement after my front wheel wiped out on a drain! A real bonus that it stuffs down into its own built in pouch and attatches to the frame. Fantastic as always.

Good looking light rain jacket.
Great for casual riding, bike packing, mountain bike. I wouldn’t use it for a toad ride, fairly light. Not had a chance to test in the rain yet, so no comments on its ability to keep you dry. Arms nice and long, long in the body. Packs up small in its own pocket.

Not just for mtb
Lightweight and seems durable enough so far. Keeps the wind out, it shrugged off the moisture and, with a few layers underneath, copes well with Canadian winter riding/commuting. Being able to strap it to the bike when I get too hot is pretty handy though I sure wish it had more than one pocket.

Top quality light jacket, looks good
Well fitted and go look. Only downside is I mistakenly washed this with normal detergent. It then lost its water proof layer and no matter what I did, I couldn't get it back. I reached out to Rapha for guidance, who apologised and sent me a new one. I'm now not gonna wash the new one haha

Lightweight
Emphasis on lightweight, this thing was shipped in a letter! Nonetheless very useful light jacket on the trail, love it. Keeps some wind out and very packable, nice for autumn rides when a long sleeve technical shirt isn’t quite enough. I ride MTB enduro.

Warm …
Very well cut jacket, snug all around so no flapping. The hood is excellent and can be adjusted, I wear it under my helmet. Have been using it this summer in warm but showery conditions… it does get hot and sweaty though, fabric is not breathable so off it comes after the rain … then ride to dry out the base layer. Packs down into the chest pocket and comes with a rubber strap to cinch onto your frame. Could do with a gore tex version with some under arm vents and a 2 way zip … would be perfect !

It's that good, I wear it off the bike aswell...
Bought as a shell for use whilst gravel riding - Looks great and the fabric has a luxury feel whilst having the ability to pack up small enough to fit in a pocket or secure onto the bike frame using the supplied strap. Very happy!

Great Lightweight Jacket
A great looking Jacket that performs well both on the bike and off, keeps the wind and light rain off when out and about.
I also wear mine when running and nipping to the shops, really nice piece of kit and easy to stow on your bike.

Love it
I don't know how I managed commuting for years without a hood. However I would prefer pockets but that's personal preference.
Didn't have blue so I got black which I'm glad about now. XXL fits me perfectly (6'6'', 17stone).

Really disappoints
This jacket has a nice trim fit and looks great, but from a performance perspective really disappoints. As far as I can tell it neither sheds light moisture or blocks the wind. I rode with it in a very light drizzle and it was soon stuck to my skin like wet cotton. Even for light urban use I found it inadequate, basically feels like having zero protection even on a mildly inclement day.

Great packable jacket layer
Instantly one of my favorite gear items. Perfect jacket to take some of the chill out of the weather when u need it. Love the functionality of attaching to your bike. Packs easily and never looks wrinkled.

so close to being perfect.
excellent jacket! the chest pocket that doubles as a pocket sticks out due to the extra material looking really awkward though. would not want to wear off the bike or sitting upright.

So far so good - 4 rides in
Have the Infiniim Gore Trail and Lightweight Trail jackets. The former is super breathable and warmer on cold days. It doesn’t fold that small and takes 3/4 of my hip pack up (Evoc 3litre). This jacket is great because of its small packable and I have strapped to frame with included strap. Not much warmth under 10deg celcius but block wind. Was caught out in hail and rain storm for 20minutes and kept me dry from elements and wheel spray. Any longer and I reckon would have wetted out.

Top Quality Jacket
Good quality materials and has a nice amount of stretch to allow for movement. Keeps the wind out well and breathability is pretty decent. Fits good on and off the bike.

Ultra thin paper like - not in a good way
Think this is a poor product - really thin, was going to send it back but ripped my last windproofer / light rain jacket and needed this for a ride. It performed decent on the wind side of things. But was mega disappointed on this cost wise, was expecting a more substantial packable jacket, instead this is the thinnest thing I’ve ever seen almost see through - My son has a similar Altura jacket that was 40 quid. It’s poor but 40 quid, not way over 100
