Edit: yes you are right. Its the thermolite warm liner which is removable.

I have the older Cramster Breezer 1.0&have compared it with the DSG Maze&found the Maze better, though it is priced at 6K. There are leather inserts at the shoulders, giving it a classy look&also it has some chest padding which the Cramsters lack.

MotoMesh is available at Orion, opposite Forum.

Bought the DSG Nero on Friday in time for a trip to Yercaud. Few thoughts
Pros
(+) Very comfortable over long rides (500 kms in 2 days)

(+) Not flashy (which means I can happily wear it to office. Carrying it to my desk is another story in itself)
(+) Kept out whatever the rain gods have thrown at me so far


Cons
(-) Fitting at the waist isnt the best
(-) The loop on the inner sleeve to hold the sleeve of the inner waterproof lining has surprisingly come off. Which means that when I remove the jacket the sleeve of the waterproof lining comes out half way.


Overall a big thumbs up despite the tiny couple of niggles. I cannot but strongly recommend a good riding jacket to everyone reading this. After buying one, you will, like me, wonder why on earth you werent sensible enough to buy one earlier.

Thanks dude!
& congrats for the new gear..

Yeah but stich quality, i found it better in cramster's and also the Breezer 2.0 has some Impact protectors...above the normal paddings

P.S...Can some one give us review on Breezer 2.0.

Could'nt find any in the previous pages.

@ Neil: May be sometime down the line some zippers here and there might start cracking as a lot of owners have already reported this incident.

Yup, the rider on the inner lining zip broke. Had to get it replaced.

Got my Turtle!!

Finally...got the Cramster Tankbag for 1500 bucks. Worth every penny paid for it. The quality is excellent and all remains to be done is testing it on my Sikkim ride!! Hope it holds the rains away with the supplied rain-cover.

anybody here use Cramster's Laplace Backpack? Then how is the fit & finish and ergonomics on long hour's of riding? Looking for a good laptop backpack. The features of Laplace seemed interesting but is there any other similar product with better VFM?

I am using it since 2 weeks. The fit is good, the finish is questionable. The material doesn't seem great. the bottom is not stiff. so the bags falls when kept to stand with the laptop in it. Zippers are very good. Plenty of storage options and lots of space. Absolutely not waterproof. Make sure to have a waterproof lining inside like a plastic cover, etc.

The helmet holder is good and I have rolled it and kept it in the mesh pocket for use when in need.

Value for Money in my opinion.
