It's like an air conditioner, and it stayed cool for over an hour.
    usually wear underarmor HeatGear as base layer, never used anything riding specific for under garments, Klim Aggressor seems nice.

    If I cared enough to invest in the gear, I would do armored baselayers like Forcefield and then kevlar lined jeans. Then I wouldn't have to worry about the armor staying put.

    What's the difference between a bolt and a screw?
    First you screw, then you bolt.

    I use these. They're the only CE abrasion rated undergarment you can buy, and it's nice to be able to wear normal pants over them. I sometimes wear them under my 1 pc tracksuit if it's not too hot, because they have a little extra padding and some extra protection too. Highly recommend them although the price is a little steep.

I've bought a lot of gear and 6 bikes from them since 2007, plus I want my senior discount!


    PS -- Looks like the Klim and REV'IT! prices are pretty close.

    Who stocks KLIM in the area?
    Did you ever get the Tornado pants?
    I purchased the Cayenne Pro pants, excellent construction but the color is different than what I had expected. Thinking about returning these for Tornado

    For the cost of the Cayenne Pro, you should really check out the Klim Baja S4. Everything I've read says it's way better than the Cayenne at ventilation with equal if not more protection.

    When I called Adam at SSC, he said they had a number of choices to check out. Then I twisted my knee. So I haven't gone shopping yet.

    Thanks, knee is all good now. I'm riding, but in between heat waves. I did get the MOTO-D undersuit and really like it.
