A full season of product testing has now elapsed and we have created a very detailed report of the entire experience with this little known gourmet gear manufacture with a funny name, Klim. Okay…there is no detailed report. In fact, we forgot we were testing before leaving sight of the truck. The gear functioned so well it became invisible and got out of the way of the important issue of riding. Last season we experienced every possible riding condition from biting 25° below winds in the deep woods of Canada to rainy 37° spring days in the U.P. Never did we find fault with our Klim gear, in fact we became somewhat accustomed to being pampered. We were reliably dry, and comfortable; this rock solid gear was coveted by all. While riding in even the coldest most hostile places our Klim gear inspired confidence as it swallowed all the environment had to offer and then begged for more. At no time did we feel the least exposed to the elements. Klim’s layering system provided a limitless range of options and features to customize the gear for each riding condition.

As an aggressive rider I often get hot and sweated up while riding the twistys, the Klim gear and its superior breathing ability did an amazing job of keeping me dry from within as well as from without. When I wanted to cool things down, it was as easy as opening one of the large well placed vents that was standing by. So when you’re ready to finally say goodbye to that “bargain” gear that you “put up with” take our recommendation and purchase gear you will love.
