Reviews:
What MTB Magazine UK - 8 out of 10
"Made from Gore-Tex Paclite, the Alp-X is designed to be a bike specific, lightweight, foul-weather jacket. The Alp X is a very specific jacket, but one that's incredibly well-built and should last - a sort of sporty bmw of the jacket world. We pack it regularly for the big marathon rides because of its weight, protection and small pack size. For its low weight it has an impressive array of features: stowaway droptail, hidden quick-draw hems, waterproof chest pocket and rear pocket with integrated carry bag."

"This jacket couldn't be more bike specific...the rounded back cut fits perfectly when riding; the collar has an extra long, articulated shape; the sleeves are velcro cuffed, and an extendable tail wraps right round under your bum. The breathablity and strom-proofing of the paclite fabric is first rate, staying dry at a steady cruise and drying fast after warm/wet work."
