Waterproofs

Post by yellowtrev »

Hi all,

I'm after a waterproof top/jacket but one thats the kaghoul type,not too bulky.I was thinking about the zip up the front types that the BSB racers use on wet race days.
Anybody know where to get them from and if they would be suitable or are they one race throw away types?

Any advice welcome,

Cheers Trev.

The ones you're talking about are by Respro and can be obtained from most race suppliers
http://www.trackparts.co.uk/respro.php

or direct from Respro

or Demon Tweaks

However, they are not especially compact and are a right bitch to get on/off
IMO you're better off getting a cheap mac from Milletts.
Lighter, cheaper, easier to use, the only downside is they are more billowy and you need to make sure you tuck the hood in or you'll suffocate!! :lol:
I've got an inferiority complex
But its not a very good one!
