MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Looks like my race face waterproof has finally given up the ghost...ripped and now ingress of mildew....lent it to a daughter who left it in her shed over the winter whilst wet......so what is there that is
Waterproof
Durable
Breathable....I will quanitfy that I sweat like zindane zindane .,
Pit zips to help breathabilty
Cost £100 or less. Ideally my go more.
Thanks
Not pit-zips but the Endura Convert jacket has a large vent along the back where the sleeves zip off. Might work for you? There's a softshell variant and a traditional waterproof (might be the Convert II?). I use the latter as my go-to waterproof jacket and it seems to work well.
I have a Madison Zenith that ticks that list.
Endura Stealth ? - loads of vents, breathable, waterproof - they were online for under £100 a few weeks ago. Maybe a bit warm tho...
The link works now WTF.

Thanks but I find with chest zips it is too cold on my chest/lungs....I like to have a windproof 'core' and then the pit zips seem to circulate air in to the jacket....not sure if that hàs made any sense at all.
I have a DHB EQ2.5, amongst many, many other jackets
I wore it in 2 days of welsh rain bikepacking over a weekend. I was dry underneath. Very impressed.
Roadie cut but works well on the bike, nice long arms. Has pit zips which are great for venting, though it was pretty cold at points so these were often zipped up
