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.

      the bag's material looks like a waterproof material...and bags are a must to be waterproof...
      and how are the straps...are they thick enough to give minimum weight over the shoulders.

      Also, Can you post some pics from front, back, etc.

        • @Jadhav: Thanks for that shortish write-up of the Pulse. I am really keen on buying it for myself. Do you think that waterproof liner will be able to hold rain-water for long (from seeping in)?

          It is tough to wear it in summers, I know, and more so during peak Delhi summers!

            Thanks a lot.. You mentioned about breezer 1.0 . My bro saw the cramster breezer 2.0 here in pune and he felt fine. Now how about the Pulse and Maze ? Which one will be better between the Pulse and Maze? That Pulse was out of stock in pune.. that guy was getting hold of new stock soon...

            • Does anyone know the exact location of Cramster store in Kothrud, Pune ? I'm looking for a sturdy well-padded , wet-weather wearable jacket , recommendations welcome.

                Hi

                You will get Cramster Jackets at Adventure World , in the McDonalds Lane , kothrud. Its inside a Building , on ground floor. its a Small shop.


                Regarding the pulse , I just went to the above shop , and checked out the Pulse . Red One. I liked the overall fit and quality of the pulse. Also tried a Breezer 2.0 , but somehow I didnt like the Breezer 2.0 . I felt the pulse to be heavy , and with better padding / protection than the Breezer .

                MRP quoted for the Pulse is 5,350 . I said that 5.2K is mentioned on the web-site. He said 150Rs are the courier charges. They get the jackets from Bangalore , and are made in UK( the dealer said so) ....

                Stil not sure whether to go for a Pulse or a DSG Maze..

                • Anyone from Delhi/Noida here who can tell me where I can buy a quality jacket? Preferably it should be a textile jacket (mesh would be ideal) but I don't mind leather if the quality is excellent. I'd need some good padding and removable inner linings. It should give good air flow in summer and restrict the same in winters. My budget is about 5-7k.

                          • Guys, I have a budget of 2k for gloves and 2k for knee guard (slightly extendable if its worth it), which one to go for? Protection would be my first priority then comfort ability in our hot summer conditions.

                            How good are Cramster products?

                              Cramster is good quality&VFM. My entire gear is Cramster. They have launched new models in knee guards&elbow guards are coming up soon. Since you are not looking for a high brand, yet do not want to compromise on the quality, Cramster is a good choice. Give it a thought!
