Rab Men’s Cinder Phantom Waterproof Jacket – Sahara

The Cinder range of cycling kit from Rab is designed for all kinds of adventures on two wheels. Whether it’s a quick lap of the local woodland trails or a cross-continent bikepacking expedition, you can rely on Cinder clothing to go the distance.

The Cinder Phantom Waterproof Jacket is ideal for minimalist bikepacking. It’s made from an incredibly lightweight, 7D, 2.5 layer Pertex Shield fabric and the whole jacket weighs less than 100 g (about half an apple). It packs away super small and the stuff sack can be attached to your bike frame or saddle, so it’s easily stowed away and forgotten about until you need it.

The jacket is incredibly comfortable thanks to a bike-specific cut. An under-helmet hood and drop tail shelter your head from the rain and rear from tyre spray. Minimalist features like the stretch-bound cuffs and hem make putting the jacket on quick and simple, as well as reducing weight.
