    • I had informed about the jacket to BD, however, not sure if I would be lucky to get one this time.

      At the same time, not desperate to buy one for the ride from other brands. Guess, might look out to borrow one for this time.

            @ Aargee - I beg to differ - I'm sure that the jacket is good; I'm unsure about it's comfort levels - all Cordura construction with only zippered vents is still likely to be quite hot, especially on the upcoming ride.

            I would suggest the Maze instead.

              Pls check the riding gears thread, there's unanimously a different opinion.

                  No offence to anybody, but the riding thread sees posts from all kinds of people/members. If I had to take the 'popular' view, I would be wearing fake 'AXO/Fox' knee-guards for 550 bucks!!

                  The open forum threads provide us with a diverse range of opinions and views and it is up to us to pick out what we think is pertinent and useful to us - at least that's the way I look at it.

                    • Aargee: i do own a A* T-Stunt which has mesh in the body and cordura over my shoulders and sleeves, but when i wear them during a ride my shoulders and sleeves will be damp due to sweat. considering i would suggest you to go for a mesh one instead of cordura.

                        You opinion is much needed Mr.Bikerfas - This is my plan of purchase, pls let me know your inputs...



                        Change the gloves to A* Carbon instead of Revive.

                        • Aargee: Thanks for noting my comments.
                          As for the jacket goes, it is fine, would suggest you to check it out before doing the purchase.
                          For the pants i would say go for a Riding mesh pant instead of Waterproof pants as you would be cooked if u r riding them in the summers
                          As for the gloves, Carbon is fine - before commenting is it a A* Carbon or DSG Carbon??

                              Well, this is not going to happen I guess; people are refusing to sell!!!

                              Point noted; anyway, the one I asked for is not available with DSG too.

                              Its DSG Carbon; but I'm changing my mind to revive, it has got an appealing look to me!!!

                                Morning time, we could always find an empty bay opposite to the bus stand.
