dhb Aeron Rain Defence Bib Tight features
Quality
Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Tights. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of dhb Aeron Rain Defence Bib Tight.
The first thing is material. Looking at what dhb Aeron Rain Defence Bib Tight is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.
Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Tights. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.
There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Tights. Brands like dhb are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.
Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Tights category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.
Comparing Prices
Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Tights.
It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

- Description: dhb Aeron Rain Defence Bib TightThe dhb Aeron Rain Defence Bib Tights are engineered to keep out water as you cycle, using a brand new Schoeller® PU foam waterproof and windproof fabric that still retains an incredibly level of breathability when compared to standard waterproof fabrics. Schoeller® Fabric TechnologyThe usual way to make a waterproof fabric is to use a laminated construction using a membrane between a face and inner fabric. This does achieve excellent waterproof performance but flexibility and breathability suffer – not so great for cycling garments.dhb has worked with Schoeller® to create tights that are incredibly waterproof but are far superior in flexibility and breathability. This has been made possible using PU foam as an alternative to a standard membrane. PU foam is a unique bonding process which enables the dhb winter bib tight fabrics to have the right level of windproofing, water resistance, breathability and stretch. Whereas a laminated fabric construction would completely block wind flow through the fabric, the dhb PU foam bonded fabrics block the wind but also allows a small amount of air to pass through the fabric. This slight air-permeability speeds moisture transfer allowing you to ride at higher intensities and still remain sweat free.Schoeller® Nanosphere® Water Repellent TreatmentIt’s not just the innovative construction of the PU foam that makes the Aeron Rain Defence so good, it’s also the addition of a NanoSphere® treatment. This prevents water from soaking into the tights and so creates extra comfort when cycling in the rain. NanoSphere® is an advanced DWR finish that provides a natural self-cleaning effect and an extremely high level of water and dirt repellency. NanoSphere® is one of the most durable water repellency fabric treatments available. The finish lasts for up to 50 washes at 40°C, and with the right care will remain effective long after, even after serious use and frequent washing.New Elastic Interface® Paris HP ChamoisA new pad from Italian chamois maestros, the Elastic Interface® Paris HP Chamois features ultra-high density foams used in key pressure zones to provide the finest comfort for rides of any distance, from short to long. Three densities of foam are utilised to create a pad that is extremely comfortable but has a surprising lack of bulk.NEW Aeron Rain DefenceCompletely redeveloped over two years, the new Aeron Rain Defence Collection takes protection from the rain, road spray and other foul weather to the next level. Using technologies from the World’s leading fabric mills, this new collection is a massive leap forward for dhb.Features:Materials: 48% Polyester, 37% Polyamide, 15% ElastaneInnovative Schoeller® PU foam waterproof – windproof fabricSchoeller® Nanosphere® Water Repellent TreatmentNew Elastic Interface® Paris HP ChamoisHighly breathableHigh level of stretch for maximum mobilitySuper-stretch lay flat bib-strapsNew Elastic Interface® Paris HP chamoisBuy dhb Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
