are they any good? Im looking at a wind/waterproof set and they seem a good price, and look pretty good (i want the black/black combo).

Very good! I have that kit and its windproof and waterproof, but it isn't breathable though. The jacket doesn't zip all the way down so its a lid-off job if you get caught out. They are also lined with a mesh material which makes them a fiddle to put on over boots.

Go for it :thumbsup:

Yup its the kit I bought at the weekender. Wore it on the ride home and kept me dry. What price are you paying Neil there are quite a few variations on the price just doing a quick google on it. Shop around.

Coz ya get a chance to chat with them and play it cheeky is that the best price, you've been looking around etc etc.

You should always get 10% off if ya can, the profit margin can happily take it.

Whats a few quid to a well paid professional like myself?!

I wanted the eclipse jacket, but these are so much better priced!
