As promised, the latest reviews for:
REV'IT Galactic Leather Women's Motorcycle Jacket
REV'IT Challenger Cooling Vest Insert.
Summer review, REVIT Galactic
Landing in my hot little hands April 1st, this will be the perfect start for summer gear reviews!
Modeled after the Ignition 2, the Galactic ($499) is designed as a sporty summer jacket with a removable waterproof liner.
Of course, for those of us in mild climates like San Francisco, the Galactic would be perfect as a year round option. A couple of differences between this and the Ignition 2 from what I can tell is the fitment: more hourglass through the middle, vs. boxy on the Ignition 2; and sport cut for a full forward riding position. Now that my body shape has changed, I definitely am looking forward to this newer fit.
I'll also be trying out the Challenger insert ($89), which is a cooling vest that zips in. Genius!
I've got a nice list of weekend trips/rides planned to hot places so I'm sure this will come in handy.
