Ultimate Touring Suit Money No Object

Brian: Simple to use and very effective

To have a remote dual control easily accessible that varies the heat of the jacket and gloves independently is a godsend on the go when compared with button-pressing or phone-app-faffing Ive had to use before. I have the controller mounted on my clutch fluid cylinder which works well. The only suggestion I would make is to scribe the index markers onto the face of the dials where theyd be more visible as an easy reference to set it to your usual temp. They are currently on the sides of the dials which makes them disappear from view in a quarter of a turn.

Brian: Really excellent piece of kit.

Im pretty much aligned with all the rave reviews so far. Comfortable and a breeze to connect with the long single cable. Works brilliantly. Remote control is a must have for easy adjustability. A couple of very minor grumbles that may be useful to feed back 1. The index markers on the rc dials would be more obvious on the front rather than the sides. 2. The neck fit is too loose bearing in mind that you need and are recommended to use only a thin base layer under the jacket. Ive got an 18 inch neck so you wouldnt expect a gap that lets the cold air in and needs filling with a neck tube or two! 3. Im not a fan of the two-way zips as you want the jacket hem to remain a snug fit all around and not for the lower zip to slide open. The material is slightly stretchy anyway so I dont see the need for the two-way zip. 4. Ive now got at least seven merinodown base and mid-layers that cost a packet and are now completely redundant!! A fabulous jacket.

Bren: Cant beat them

I have had two pairs of these gloves, the first I have had for several years and still work but getting a bit tatty so invested in a new pair, and keep my older pair in reserve. I ride 8-10 hours a day everyday of the year and for the 4 months of winter these are an absolute must, I can cope down to about 5 degrees but below that is where these and the socks come into their own. allows me to keep on riding all day well into sub zero temperatures..
