In need of some waterproof trousers, packable and light weight for that 'just in case' moment...

So I am looking at the dhb Minima Waterproof Trousers, any other must look at trousers...?

Inov-8 Mislite are good, but they're a bit baggy around the ankles so might catch on the big chainring.

I've got the Montane Atomic DT trousers, and I like them. They are waterproof, and pack rather small.
Though I've not actually used them cycling much, mostly just for running/walking. They do have a couple of velcro straps at the bottom, so you can get them fairly tight around the ankles, out of the way of the chainrings.

I got some trekmates ones from TK max that are very small and light and have been waterproof in the couple of big downpours I have worn them in

I got some berghaus walking ones from go outdoors and use a hi viz band thing on the bottoms. Hardly ever use them.
