I was looking at it too! Great price.
I wonder how it would perform in Finnish weather and in how low temp I could use it? Did you use gabba 1? To compare?

with a couple of (warm) layers underneath I would guess you could go as low as -5 or something. But then I'd take a down jacket in saddlebag for breaks. Or just ride really fast the whole way :-)

Seems to work pretty well in Norway.
That's for races or training rides.
For longer rides i need to be wearing something warm and breathable like a woolen jersey, and carry a more resistant weather jacket.
It's mainly down to effort level. If you're working hard in a shit climate. You want maximum wind/rain protection with minimum insulation. Which is where something like a gabba shines.

bought a gabba 2 yesterday, it is pretty good although I wouldnt mind a way to keep the tail tugged in somewhere or not having the jersey slowly creep up by few centimeters
not rapha level refinement but the fabric is nice
