i've taken this out in 40-30 degree weather and it does great most of the time. however, when it windy (and it's windy a lot during the colder months here), this thing starts to show its weakness: not waterproof (i believe it says it is, but forgot), and when it gets soaked, the wind drives through like a ton of icicles. it has some nice fleece on the back, but i would prefer some on the top of the arms (one of the more exposed areas): instead, the sleeves are thin and let wind through especially when soaked. overall, this product is good, the price is not bad, although, like everyone says, beware of the zipper (almost crashed trying to get it unstuck while pedaling at the same time). lastly, it is not breathable (i generate a lot of heat and have to work the zippers inorder to cool down, otherwise the wind gets at the sweat and chills). so expect to have this thing half open to find that perfect temp.
