Submitted by Tim a Weekend Warrior from Cape Canaveral, FL, USA
Date Reviewed: June 27, 2003
Favorite Trail:Pine Island Conservation Area
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $45.00
Purchased At:Colorado Cyclist
Strengths:Cool, lightweight, can show off your mus-culs
Weaknesses:Zipper track kinda pooches out in the front. Seems like they could come up with a better design. Shoulders will get scratched up a little more on tight singletrack.
Similar Products Used:none
Bike Setup:Zion Sentinel 18" - Marzocchi MX Pro w/eta fork, Shimano XTR shifters/derailleurs/crank/bracket, Avid SD-7 brakes, Shimano PDM-959 pedals, Moots laid back Ti post, WTB Saddle, Litespeed Ti Bar, Chris King hubs and headset, Bontrager valiant rims with Panaracer Fire XC tires w/Stan's No-Tubes.
Bottom Line:A nice lightweight comfortable jersey. Perfect for hot and muggy summer days in Florida. A little tweaking on the zipper and I'd give em a perfect 5.

Submitted by Glenn Vernes a Cross Country Rider from Middletown, CT
Date Reviewed: November 28, 2002
Duration Product Used:More than 3 years
Strengths:Very cool, very unconfining, lets you show off your biceps.
Weaknesses:You get a lot more bicep/shoulder cuts, pockets too small
Similar Products Used:none
Bike Setup:Sugar 1, Bomber XTR
Bottom Line:I have three of them and use them both on and off road. They are the setup in hot weather, much cooler/more comfortable than short sleeved jerseys. They have a mesh back. They're easier to move around in than short sleeves. They also allow you to show off whatever shoulders/biceps you might have, and who knows what that might get you. My only gripe is that they have three very small rear pockets, where two larger ones would be more practical. Also you will get more cuts and scrapes on your biceps/shoulders than with short sleeves.
