dhb Aeron Rain Defence Bib Tight Review

• NEW Aeron Rain Defence Completely redeveloped over two years, the new Aeron Rain Defence Collection takes protection from the rain, road spray and other foul weather to the next level. Using technologies from the world’s leading fabric mills, this new collection is a massive leap forward for dhb. PU Foam Replaces the Traditional Membrane Making a fabric truly waterproof usually means sandwiching a laminated membrane between two other fabrics. This makes very protective fabrics, but the compromise is a lack of flexibility and breathability – two things you need when making cycling legwear. Working with Schoeller®, dhb have utilised PU foam as an alternative weatherproof option. PU foam is a unique bonding process which enables our winter bib tight fabrics to have the right level of windproofing, water resistance, breathability and stretch. Whereas a laminated fabric construction would completely block wind flow through the fabric, the dhb PU foam bonded fabrics block the wind but also allows a small amount of air to pass through the fabric. For winter cycling tights intended to be ridden at a higher intensity, this means more breathability and more comfort. Another benefit of PU foam construction is that it offers a much higher level of fabric stretch than a laminated alternative. Once again this means much more comfort and a better fit. Schoeller® Nanosphere® Water Repellent Treatment dhb Rain Defence tights use NanoSphere®, a class-leading fabric treatment that prevents rain and road spray from saturating the fabric’s exterior. This first line of defence prevents the fabric from becoming waterlogged, ensuring you stay warm, dry and comfortable. Developed by Schoeller – a global leader in fabric innovation and advanced technology – NanoSphere® is an advanced DWR finish that provides a natural self-cleaning effect and an extremely high level of water and dirt repellency. NanoSphere® is one of the most durable water repellency fabric treatments available. The finish lasts for up to 50 washes at 40°C, and with the right care will remain effective long after, even after serious use and frequent washing. After extended use and washing, the function can be reactivated by heat treatment, either in the dryer or by ironing on a low heat setting. Ensure that the garments are rinsed thoroughly after the wash cycle, and do not use fabric softener. New Elastic Interface® Paris HP Chamois The new Paris HP is the latest development from Elastic Interface®, the Italian experts whose unparalleled knowledge and experience go into making the best chamois in cycling. The Paris HP Pad features ultra-high density foam inserts under the sit bones to ensure a comfortable ride all day long. Rated as good for rides over 7 hours in length, three separate densities of foam have been used to ensure comfort, while also reducing the overall bulk of the pad.
