I am in the market for a new rain jacket for bikepacking (packs small)/touring duties (and day-to-day riding), but it needs to tick the touring box first and foremost.
7MESH's SkyPilot would be very nice, but at US$450 + postage, it is likely to stay on the wish list.
Ground Effect's Rivet looks interesting at AU$305. Apparently, it packs down small and has good specifications. There is no hood, which is a nice feature to have in my experience.
The alternative from Ground Effect is the
Storm Trooper, which has the same specifications as the Rivet but is heavier at 340 grams versus 260 grams. It does have an under-helmet hood, but I haven't found any details on how small it packs down.
Are there any other suitable options, particularly with bikepacking in mind?
