For me, the Gabba is more about the windproof front and it stays pretty warm even when you sweat/get soaked. I get sweaty and the jersey gets pretty damp, but not to the point where its uncomfortable.
The short sleeve perfetto is the lighter, thinner Gabba, might be worth considering if you're finding the Gabba too warm?I'll wear my gabba+nanoflex arm warmers on a damp/wet fast ride because its more aero and keeps me warm enough, but probably put on a long sleeve jersey + rain jacket if on my own.

Tempted by the lightweight shadow jacket but I find my Gabba pretty sweaty, not sure I get the whole "kind of waterproof but not really and if it actually rains you'll need a proper jacket anyway" thing. Am I missing something?
If I have a Gabba and don't like it much, no point getting the shadow jacket presumably...
