The functions of a cycling jacket
This 3rd layer is the one that protects you from external aggressors such as cold and wind, while retaining the warmth and breathability benefits of the lower layers. By using the right cycling jacket, your performance and comfort will remain the same, whatever the weather conditions.
This RC100 cycling jacket keeps you warm so you can ride in winter.

Pour savoir si un tissu est respirant, on mesure sa résistance évaporative RET (test basé sur la norme ISO 11092). Plus la résistance est faible, plus le tissu laisse s’échapper la vapeur d'eau générée par le corps en activité, et plus il est respirant.
• RET <6 : extrêmement respirant, adapté aux efforts les plus intenses
• RET 6 à 12 : respirant, adaptée à un effort modéré
• RET 12 à 20 : moyennement respirant, pas agréable en cas d’effort
• RET >20 : peu
