Review on Optimized Cycling Rain Poncho: Ultra-Light Bike Raincoat with Reflective Strips by Ben Balas

Revainrating 3 out of 5

50 percent dry bike

Pros: Head and upper body remained dry up to about the knees. Cons: wet hands, wet knees down. it was cycling. I walked over some dog poo and Pancho rubbed it a bit since it hung far enough to chafe a bike tire. I like the hood very much. The transparent sides are much appreciated as I don't have to turn my head as far to look for cars. I was hoping to stay completely dry but was only 50% dry so I ordered rain pants from another company and 5 cheap packs of rain panchos with sleeves. This coat fits my new bike and I like the reflective strips but they will probably match. better for those who walk than bike.

Pros
  • Sport and outdoor activities
Cons
  • I don't remember
