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 Base Layers. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of GripGrab Windbreaking Performance Base Layer 2020.
The first thing is material. Looking at what GripGrab Windbreaking Performance Base Layer 2020 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 Base Layers. 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 Base Layers. Brands like GripGrab 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 Base Layers 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 Base Layers.
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.

GripGrab Windbreaking Performance Base Layer 2020 Reviews
Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.
There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.
1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.
2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.
Our best advice is to head over to Chain Reaction Cycles and read the GripGrab Windbreaking Performance Base Layer 2020 reviews there.

- Description: GripGrab Windbreaking Performance Base LayerThe GripGrab Windbreaking Performance Base Layer makes use of innovative Arrowind™ technology to give you the very best balance of wind-blocking performance and breathability.The difference between the Windbreaking Performance Base Layer and previous wind-blocking base layers lies in its use of a single windproof layer. Instead of an inflexible, poor breathing two-layer membrane, this single layer Arrowind™ technology remains incredibly flexible and breathable.This windproof Arrowind™ is used across the front and shoulders, blocking up to 80 per cent of the air particles hitting your torso while maintaining the same breathability and flexibility found in warp-knitted fabrics. Meanwhile, the back is made from a high-stretch, super-breathable material, ensuring sweat is quickly wicked away and humidity can escape – vital for comfort when working hard.Polygiene® treatment is also used for all-day, everyday freshness. Its ‘Wear More. Wash Less®’ technology resists the build-up of odour-inducing bacteria and won’t wash out. This gives freshness for the life of the garment, reduced need to wash between uses and hence an extended life span and minimises its environmental impact.The GripGrab Windbreaking Short Sleeve Base Layer allows you to leave your gilet at home and enjoy a lightweight setup on windy days.Features:Materials: 50% Polyamide, 20% Polyester, 20% Polypropylene, 10% ElastaneArrowind™ wind-block technologyPolygiene® anti-bacterial, anti-odour treatmentHighly breathableBuy GripGrab Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
