tankygsy Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Hello fellas and wanna be fellas... I need a suitable jacket for when I go trialling, I also like to be able to carry little bits and pieces like plugs and mobile phone etc. Question 1. Should I get a jacket that has an elasticated waiste or Question 2. Should I get one without.. Question 3 . Would either of the above restrict movement? For a budget of say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Regards your last line/question....you will have paid for the priviledge of (mebolongi tribe) advertising somebody els's product. Some are breathable waterproof etc..you pays yer money and takes yer choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tankygsy Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Lol chewy! Seriously, is there anything in particular I need to consider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clay Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 You could spend a small fortune on a brand jacket? But they are still as susceptable to thorn bushs as a cheap one. "And would it make you ride any better" Or you could buy a cheap light weight jacket, and a bum bag,,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doogle Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Deffo MTb jackets in my opinion. Try wiggle.co.I'm and chainreactioncycles.com. I have always had Altura ones and they have worked well/ been good value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
