THE BIKE JACKET

Whether you're into trekking, mountain biking or road cycling, a reliable cycling jacket is an essential piece of gear for ambitious, passionate cyclists, no matter what they're riding. It keeps wind and rain off your upper body while offering high breathability and excellent moisture wicking. This means that even long bike rides and weekend trips become an enjoyable experience with optimal support and comfort.

THE PERFECT SOLUTION FOR EVERY NEED

Thanks to modern functional materials, innovative technologies and over 90 years of experience in high-performance textiles, GONSO is your reliable specialist for cycling clothing. We offer cycling jackets for men and women that are designed for all performance levels and disciplines and provide their wearers with a tailored fit that meets their needs.

Cyclists differ in many ways: they ride different types of bikes and prefer different riding styles, speeds and areas of use. In order to provide the right cycling clothing for every requirement, at GONSO we offer cycling trousers, jerseys and cycling jackets specifically designed for:

• Road cyclists

• Mountain bikers

• Commuters

• Touring cyclists

Optimum functionality and high wearing comfort are always part of the package, ensuring that even long tours and changing weather conditions can be mastered with ease. Our cycling jackets effectively increase the feel-good factor on the bike and provide cycling enthusiasts of all ages with the best possible support in every situation.

Why is a cycling jacket so important?

A cycling jacket is an essential part of functional cycling clothing. In addition to the fashion aspect, functionality and safety play a decisive role. A good cycling jacket:

• protects against wind and rain.

• is breathable.

• wicks moisture away from the body.

• has a signalling effect in road traffic.

• is aerodynamic.

• is lightweight.

• is compact.

• fits perfectly.

Depending on the season in which the cycling jacket is to be worn, GONSO also offers models that are specially tailored to the warm or cold months of the year: the jackets for spring and summer are particularly light and airy, while those for autumn and winter are equipped with additional thermal insulation and Co.

Speaking of tailored – cycling jackets usually have a special cut. They are slightly longer at the back than at the front. This is due to the hunched posture that cyclists adopt on their bikes. A normal jacket would expose the back, leaving sensitive organs such as the kidneys completely unprotected. A special cycling jacket, on the other hand, effectively covers the lower back while riding and protects it from moisture, cold and draughts.

THE RIGHT CYCLING JACKET – FOR ALL WEATHER CONDITIONS

When cycling, in addition to the terrain, external conditions such as wind, humidity and ambient temperature play a decisive role. Depending on the weather conditions and personal preferences, cyclists have various options when it comes to choosing the perfect cycling jacket:

• Windbreaker

• Rain jacket

• Vest

• 2-in-1 jacket

• Coat

The characteristics and advantages of each item of clothing in the GONSO range are explained in more detail below. Once you know which features are most important to you, you'll find your new favourite cycling jacket in no time.

The windbreaker

Windbreakers are particularly lightweight and made from a windproof functional fibre. They are an important part of the equipment of regular cyclists, as stormy periods on a tour through the countryside can lead to cold limbs and premature fatigue. A windproof cycling jacket effectively prevents this and ensures that the upper body does not cool down while also providing high breathability.

The rain jacket

Bad weather – that's exactly what a rain jacket is made for. It keeps the body reliably dry during rain showers and ensures that a bike ride through picturesque landscapes doesn't have to be interrupted because of a little water. Thanks to a multi-layered, functional fabric and a waterproof membrane, the jackets prevent moisture from penetrating, keep the body warm and allow it to breathe.

The vest

A wind vest is the ideal compact companion when the weather doesn't call for a jacket. As a complementary piece of functional clothing, it is perfect for windy, slightly cooler days and supports the upper body in regulating heat. Particularly lightweight, it doesn't weigh you down and can be stowed away in your luggage to save space during sunny, warm moments of your ride.

The 2-in-1 jacket

If you want to combine the advantages of a cycling jacket and a cycling vest, choose a versatile 2-in-1 jacket. This can be converted into a vest in just a few simple steps thanks to a special zip system on the chest. A cycling jacket like this offers a particularly wide range of uses and is an excellent companion for long tours and constant changes in weather.

The coat

A raincoat is the ideal piece of cycling clothing for commuters. Thanks to its longer cut and waterproof properties, it will keep the suit worn underneath safe and dry on your way to the office. Additional features such as multiple zip pockets and a ventilation system in the hood enhance everyday commuting with storage space and plenty of comfort.
