Strengths:
looks good, cannondale qaulity if you don't know they are the bomb, this is the newer version i have, it 98% windproof allowing 2%in to evaporate sweat, its light and comfortable, its so light you would never think that it can keep you warm in below freezing weather, but it does all i wear is a summer short sleeve jersey under and i feel great rode for more than 3 hours, people in there cars would look at me like "are you nuts riding in this cold weather" but bikers in there cars would give me the thumbs up, i new they were bikers by the bike racks, well if your looking for an excellent cold weather jacket check this one out...
Weaknesses:
none a little expensive but worth every penny, i was hesitant because of price but brought it because this damn cold weather is not going anywhere and i need to ride, i hate stationary bikes....
Similar Products Used:
none, in the past i would layer with wind breaker on top, but damn its cold here in the east cost...
Bike Setup:
cannondale jekyll all the way baby!
Bottom Line:
i think cannondale makes awesome bike but there clothing is even better, if you need a cold weather jacket get this one, its wind proof, water proof made with polartec, has soft fleece interior, rear pockets arm pockets, reflective accents, very very warm but breaths very very well and most important looks damn good i love it....ps they also make the matching 4 winds tights excellent and gloves too cool woops i mean too warm....
