  • Joe Rocket Atomic 5.0

    Ordered it on Amazon for $152. Will give it a review when I get it on Saturday. My daily jacket is a Tourmaster Air Intake, and the mesh in the Spring & Fall sucks, so I needed something to keep the wind and cold away, and my Kilimanjaro jacket is too bulky sometimes.

    So are you going to model this for us at the upcoming XSSE?
    Which color combo did you get?

    I had the reverse problem. My beloved heavy old yellow Sliders has seen over 100,000 miles and it looked like somebody puked on it. (((but as many know, i'm about function not about how things look), but since Kurt painted my 11E i promised myself to be more diligent in the clean & polish realm), but why polish when you can Ride??)

    Anyways, in Feb when i committed to attend the XS Colorado Rally I decided to update safety & comfort and bought the Bohn gear (shirt & pants) and a new mesh jacket. It was so much more comfortable in 105 degrees than riding with that heavy old dirty winter jacket. Huge airflow & comfort plus impact safety protection. Really was the cats meow. Sounds like you had the reverse problem. Too much cold air with that daily rider Air Intake mesh & the Kilimanjaro heavy like my Sliders.

    Happy riding in that Joe Rocket Atomic 5.0
