A new jacket aimed at urban riders who need a lightweight and stylish top layer with enough protection for biking duties, the LS2 Zirconium is made from stretch softshell and ripstop fabrics and has a crossover style more akin to a hiking anorak rather than biking jacket. 
The fabric is waterproof to 8000mm – enough to withstand most British downpours – and there is a detachable hood for use off the bike. A removable thermal liner extends the seasonal suitability of the Zirconium, and for hotter days there are two chest vents and sleeve vents to manage airflow. Protection is provided by CE level 1 elbow potectors and external shoulder armour. Pockets are provided for optional chest and back protectors. It comes in sizes S to 5XL, in black or blue/black colourways, for an SRP of £179.99.
