Now why would you waste your time on the couch watching TV while your precious road bike is collecting dust in the shed? If the answer has anything to do with the weather, then get going, layer up and hit the road! Endura has developed lots of new items for this Winter/Spring 2012 season which will protect you against rain, wind, chilly conditions, and whatever else the elements might throw at you during the colder season. All of these items work together as integrated parts of Endura’s layering system, and will also come in handy in spring time when the weather is quite unpredictable and when it can still be quite chilly.

Wet Weather Protection – Photon Jacket

One of the challenges of making a waterproof cycling jacket is to combine high waterproof properties with low bulk and low weight. With the new Photon Jacket, Endura has mastered this challenge in style. This latest member in Endura’s exclusive family of cycling jackets is extremely lightweight and ultra packable for a fully waterproof, completely seam-sealed jacket. It is made of ultra compact 2.5-layer waterproof breathable fabric. For perfect weather protection, the Photon features a slimline inner storm flap with a wrap over zip guard. Further details include reflective print trims on shoulders and sleeves, a rear pocket with structured bonded opening, elasticated cuffs, hem and neckline, and a mini stuff sack. The jacket comes in a relaxed fit, and is available in a Men’s and a Women’s specific version in a range of colours including Hi-Viz.

Race Day Weather Protection – Adrenaline Race Cape

The Adrenaline Race Cape out of the FS260-Pro Series is a European style road cycling piece. In a transparent, lightweight waterproof fabric that is highly breathable, this fitted jacket offers an ultra-compact weather protection solution for race day since it allows for the race-number on the jersey underneath to be visible at all times. The simplicity of the garment with pull-on elasticated cuffs and collar and the straight forward front zip make it easy to put on and off in race conditions.
