I don't ride my bike to work, so it would be pretty hard for me to justify the purchase of the Rapha Rain Jacket. However, if your bicycle is your choice method of transportation, this jacket is right up your alley.
The Rapha Rain Jacket is lightweight and almost looks like any other regular jacket until you unfurl the bib. This key feature enables the Rapha Rain Jacket to ensure splatter-free slacks from mount to dismount.
