kaintxu Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Hi guys, As you know I'm getting a bike at the end of the month, so I was looking into gear. Could you give me your opinion in the following jackets for Scotland (Edinburgh-Dunfermline daily commute)? I was looking at this jacket and was wondering why the http://www.fc-moto.de/Scott-Distinct-1-Pro-GT-Jacket" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Which seems to be the older model, has a higher price than the http://www.fc-moto.de/Scott-Distinct-2-Pro-GT-Jacket" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Which is the current model scott has in their website. If the distinct 1 pro is better, the discount is even bigger so it would be quite a good buy The contender is the following which I Can get for around 320 at the store after the discount for buying a bike, http://www.fc-moto.de/Revit-Neptune-Gore-Tex-Jacket" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Is it a good enough jacket? From what I can see is not laminated gore tex, it just has a gore tex linen, would that be better than a waterproof RST? OR the above mentioned Scot laminated Gore tex? Any call between these 3?

onesea Posted July 13, 2016 Posted July 13, 2016 Just to play devils advocate, if your serious about a commuter suit...I would seriously consider one of these or similar...http://www.fc-moto.de/Alpinestars-360-R-Drystar-Suit?gclid=CjwKEAjwqpK8BRD7ua-U0orrgkESJADlN3YBa0ZDj-jKISEG35ilIT8FkgDSvC6ONVuSXaNBHf2mRBoCZtPw_wcB" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;Although not the prettiest thing they are useful. I have a Spada all in one that is great when I am going on courses etc I can change out of biker gear in 2 minutes. Iused to do it every day at the station really handy... Quote

Hi one sea,Sorry for the delay, I have been in holidays without Internet.I'm not that keen on one pieces as sometimes I could want to wear on or the other. Thinking in the onset I posted, any tips?Also anyone else can give some feedback? Thanks Quote
