Me too... it takes me ages to buy bits these days as I do look into it a lot before a purchase. It keeps on coming back to Albion personally and I do like buying from independents... thanks for your advice... and everyone elses... I guess summer riding is that much easier as you don't have to worry so much about the elements... I'll carry on looking!!!

I fucking love a bit of jacket talk.
0-15 is a two jacket range: 8-15 and 0-7. Gabba / perfetto type thing or other thinner recommendations above for 8+ and a proper rain jacket in the back pocket for when you know it's going hammer down. Skinny knows what he's talking about. 7 and below is thick winter soft shell / rapha PT jacket / albion insulated jacket or whatever the other recommendations are above with Base layers of your choice and then a rain jacket. OR hardshell if you run cold and want to combine the two for the 0-7 range. You will die of heatstroke if you try and do a reasonable ride in a hardshell jacket at 12 degrees. Buy two different jackets and save money now
