Assos Mille GTC Loewenkralle C2 JacketFace unpredictable weather and challenging terrain with confidence in the Assos Mille GTC Loewenkralle C2 Jacket, the ultimate protective shell designed for the adventurous cyclist. This jacket redefines versatility, providing exceptional performance for gravel grinding, bikepacking expeditions, and even the demands of a wet, windy urban commute. It´s the one piece of kit you´ll never want to leave behind, seamlessly blending high-performance protection with ingenious portability.The core of the Loewenkralle C2 is its ability to offer a triple-threat of protection. As a thermal, wind-blocking, and water-repellent shell, it creates a personal microclimate, shielding you from the elements without causing overheating. The front panels are constructed with a new membrane-backed material that is both waterproof and highly breathable, ensuring that biting winds and road spray are kept at bay while internal moisture is allowed to escape. This crucial breathability is enhanced by strategically placed, more flexible fabric on the back, promoting airflow where it´s needed most during high-exertion efforts.Durability is paramount when riding off-road, and the Loewenkralle is engineered to withstand the rigors of the trail. The sleeves are fortified with a robust, abrasion-resistant ripstop material, providing peace of mind when navigating overgrown singletrack or leaning against rough surfaces. The entire garment is treated with a durable water-repellent finish, causing rain and spray to bead up and roll off, keeping you drier for longer. For complete weather security, the seams are fully taped, eliminating potential entry points for water during a sudden downpour.One of the most innovative features of the Loewenkralle C2 is its transformative design. When the weather clears or the temperature rises, the jacket doesn´t just pack away—it converts into its own fully functional handlebar bag. This clever, built-in storage solution eliminates the need for an extra bag, keeping your essential protection readily accessible on your bars, secured with integrated straps. Furthermore, a stowable scuba-style hood provides crucial head and neck coverage, designed to be worn under the helmet for a snug, weatherproof fit when conditions truly turn foul. Reflective detailing on the back enhances your visibility to others in low-light conditions, adding a vital layer of safety.Engineered with the Assos regularFit, this jacket is optimized for comfort over long distances, offering a slightly less aggressive cut that allows for layering and freedom of movement, both on and off the bike. It´s the definitive choice for the rider who demands performance, protection, and unparalleled versatility from their equipment.Technical Specifications:* Protection: Windproof and water-repellent main body construction.* Durability: Abrasion-resistant ripstop fabric on sleeves.* Weatherproofing: Fully taped seams and a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment.* Ventilation: Highly breathable materials with a more elastic back panel for thermoregulation.* Portability: Ingeniously converts into a self-contained handlebar bag.* Visibility: Reflective rear stripe for enhanced safety in low light.Attributes: Men, Synthetic, Thermal, WindproofThe most versatile ASSOS thermal, wind-blocking and water-repellent shell, that also stores as a handlebar bag.Engineered for rides beyond the tarmac, but can also be used for a wet daily commute. tradeinn Bikeinn
