dhb Aeron Tempo 2 Waterproof Jacket – £80 RRP

First up is an updated version of the impressive and best-selling Tempo Waterproof Jacket, which for 2018 has received extra reflectivity on the elongated back in the form of dhb branding, as well as being available in a svelte black colourway alongside a bright red and blue.

The jacket fabric features an improved 30,000mm waterproof rating, up from 20,000mm, and has a 25,000g breathability rating. That figure is up from 15,000g from the jacket we tested last year, and that was already impressive. Other features include taped seams, a waterproof zip and underarm vents. The jacket is also designed to pack away into a jersey pocket should the weather of the day be changeable.

Additionally, the Aeron Tempo 2 Waterproof Jacket is available in a women’s-specific cut, in black, pink and orange colour.

dhb Aeron Roubaix FLT Bib Tights – £85 RRP

FLT stands for ‘Flashlight Technology’ and has been used to boost the visibility of these Roubaix-lined winter bib tights. FLT was first used in the high-visibility range of dhb commuter products but has also been integrated in its performance winter riding collection.

The reflective details have been added to key areas on the thigh and lower leg for maximum effectiveness, without losing the fit and comfort the flexible Roubaix lining provides, according to dhb.

Long distances in the saddle shouldn’t be an issue either, thanks to the use of a Cytech Elastic Interface Tour HP Air chamois, featuring a dual-density construction to minimise unnecessary bulk – it’s said to be equally at home for off-road use as well as on the tarmac.

The female-specific version of the tights also features an added polkadot design flourish on the calves.

dhb Aeron Storm FLT Waterproof Jacket – £150 RRP

The excellent Aeron Storm jacket has also been updated for this winter, following its launch last year. Where before it took the form of an all-black affair, dhb says it’s responded to media and customer feedback by introducing a high-visibility yellow colourway with added reflective features.

Those features are situated over the shoulders, down the back of the arms and on the storm guard. Otherwise, the jacket is made from seam-taped 37.5 fabric, so-called because it’s designed to keep your body temperature at the optimal 37.5 degree temperature. That means you get the impressive figures of a 45,000mm waterproof rating and 30,000g breathability rating. Whereas the Tempo is designed for fast riding in showery conditions, the Storm is for all-out wet weather.

Attention to detail is also a priority, with double cuffs and a fleece-lined collar for added comfort and reduced ingress, while the long storm guard sits under a large zipped cargo pocket to protect your rear end from road spray.

dhb has also produced a female-specific cut available in a distinctive ‘Winterbloom’ deep purple colourway.
