• I no longer have much room for a handlebar bag, though, which isn't so great.

    Topeak Fuel Tank (Large)?

    (If you find your knees hit tri-bar pads when climbing then you'll probably find you knees hit a top tube bag when climbing. Whilst some people hate this kind of annoyance I find it a useful companion on long rides as it gives me something minor to be annoyed about and staves off something more major to be annoyed about that might actually hurt.)

  • If going down that direction, rather get an Alpkit.

    I'm looking to panic buy a new waterproof jacket, given that my current one doesn't look to be really waterproof and fits poorly anyway. So it should pack (bonus if in its own pocket), and be really waterproof. Breathability, meh, it's never really breathable anyway.

    Looking at the dhb aeron tempo waterproof, or maybe the rapha core rain jacket. Or another option?

    I should get myself some arm warmers too. Decisions, decisions.

  • I got the core rain jacket. It's a little bit boil-in-the-bag but it is pretty waterproof, and the neon chartreuse one feels pretty damned visible.

  • After my Rapha one died, I bought a non cycling Rab Atmos which is way better. Breathes (as much as a waterproof can) and has a hood which will go over a helmet. Packs relatively small too.
