Is the Gabba still the go to in this area. I can get a Le Col Pro Therma for £75 with discount voucher, has anyone tried them and does it work as a three season jersey or are there better alternatives?

Which three seasons?

It's good for about 8-14C, and in the wet. Works well with arm warmers for changeable days.

I think most manufacturers have copied the concept now, it's no longer the unique item it was when it first appeared.

I find the short sleeve Perfetto better than the Gabba - it’s lighter with a breathable back panel. Still windproof otherwise. I have Gabba and Perfetto and prefer the Perfetto.

I have a gore windstopper one which has seen a lot of use.

I've not gone out often in it, but when I have like this afternoon, the PX Magma (without long sleeves) has been great.

Today all I had underneath it was a long sleeve PX baselayer.

I have the gabba and the perfecto, at this time of year its too cold for either for me. But if it’s above 10 then the perfecto. Don’t know if they’ve changed but my perfecto isn’t very warm. But then again I must run cold as I prefer warmer jerseys.
For 1 hour crits in March / April I wear my Gabba if it’s wet.
Was also tempted by the Le Col with the Strava discount. Agree with Beej that it seems most manufacturers have copied the Gabba.
