Any one use a Rab Spark jacket for MTB use?
If so how do you rate it.
Was looking at a Gore Alp X GT but rather expensive.
Yes I've had one since February. It's good, I take it with on most big rides although I have another jacket for really manky winter riding.
+ Very lightweight
+ Hood fits over helmet for truly rank weather or standing about
+ Properly waterproof
+ Blue / orange one is bright without being day-glo
- Taping started coming away on seams after 2nd wash, replaced no questions asked by Cotswold
- Not the hardest wearing fabric if you intend to subject it to regular winter use
- Cut isn't mtb specific so can ride up a bit on the lower back
I got one back in feb. The cut is not really good for MTB rubs on chin hood flaps around if not secured down and mine leaked like a sieve during my 6 / 7 hr training rides. Maybe I got a dud !
