Gore Bike Wear Oxygen Jacket size Medium - Very Light, Waterproof and Breathable
-
28-06-2012 7:25pm#1Hi,
I have a superb cycling jacket for sale - the Oxygen made by Gore.
It is probably the nicest piece of kit I have had and it is just perfectly suitable for the weather we have at the moment - it weights only about 200g, is properly waterproof, windproof and still very breathable.
It was only worn few times and the only reason for sale is that I just ordered a new one in a different colour. It is in perfect condition with no damage, never washed (but this can be done, if required).
The jacket packs into a small pouch, which you can simply put into your back pocket.
The colour is as shown on the website here - Orange/Titanium/Black
Some reviews here.
They retailed at approx. €200, asking €110.

I think the sizing is spot on. I normally wear Medium and this jacket fits me perfectly. However, the first time I put it on, I thought it was too small, i.e. a little tight around my chest and a bit short on the front. But... I tried it without sitting on the bike, which was a mistakeIs the fitting chart accurate? There seems to be a lot of reviews on Wiggle saying it isn't?. After I sat on the bike with the jacket on and went for a spin I realised that this jacket is specifically designed for cycling - it works on the bike when you are in your normal cycling position. It is shorter at the front for a good reason, as when you are sitting, your front area get squeezed and then the jacket has the perfect length - not too long, as it sometimes happen with other products.
All in all, if you try the jacket in a shop without taking it for a ride (or at least without sitting as in cycle position), you may get an impression that there is something wrong with the fit. But once you are on the bike, it feels perfect.0 -

If you can stretch to €90 we have a deal (if it fits of course). It is still less than half of its original valueOffer €85, subject to correct fit and described condition. I can meet you in Killarney on Friday afternoon/evening!

Great so€90 it is! I really hope it fits!.
Regarding the fit, I believe if you are similar body build to my (below 70kg or so), it should be no problem. It is a slim fit anyway, i.e. you can't put much more that a long sleeve base layer under the jacket.
I am not in Dublin any time soon, but should this accidentally happen, I will let you know.I don't suppose you're in Dublin tomorrow or Thursday?0 -
