I tried the Rapha Brevet jacket recently and sent it back: far too short at the back. Some of their own photos show it:

It's also intended as a packable jacket so not very substantial.I replaced it with the Rapha Classic winter jacket, a much better shape for me, warmer, but not as packable. Probably too warm for much above 10 degrees if you are going at any pace. But it's a great jacket and, so far, properly waterproof. Fabric is very prone to picking up marks though so would get a darker colour.
If you want something for "general rides where it could rain" would jerseys + packable rain jacket not be better? Shakedry in the back pocket?

I'll be using it for general rides where it could rain white I'm out on the bike... and temp wise between 0-15 maybe... needs to have room for layers underneath. I can only ride at the weekend so there will be ample drying time.
