If so what are they like for biking in? A tarmac crash has totalled my endura superlight jacket.....which I found was a bit of a boil in the bag effect, I am a Zindane Zindane sweaty type person, so thinking a windproof would be better hence the Paramo, any suugestions?

I had one, it will work fine on a bike, it's not laminated so breathes well, just re proof with nikwax every so often, it's heavy compared to most bike windproofs, like the Altura Copton or Montane velo, it won't pack down that small either as it has a wired hood but is good off the bike too, as a general windproof to use on and off the bike it's great, but if it's just for the bike then a bike specific would be better, I only got rid of it as I had a ventile smock for christmas and didn't use it anymore!

Suggestions
Altura Copton
Montane Velo
Howies Extra miler

I ride in one ... love it. Keeps the worst of the weather off and dry's very quickly.
