What matters

A cycling rain jacket, for example from Santini, must be waterproof and at the same time let moisture escape from the inside, otherwise you get wet from your own sweat on the climb. Besides the material, the seams are crucial for waterproofing. An extended back protects against spray from the rear wheel.

Tip: Take the rain jacket folded small in your jersey pocket when the weather forecast is uncertain. If a shower comes, you can quickly pull it on during the ride.
