A&S Wants You to Cycle Safe and Enjoy the Ride!

JACKET
BMW Rallye 2 Pro Jacket
Manufactured from Cordura® 500 (a very long-wearing, air-permeable material) with CE approved NP protective armor in the shoulders, elbows and spine this jacket is not only safe, but is truly for all four-seasons. Its GORE-TEX insert with thin fleece ensures protection from the rain, its mesh lining and removable sleeves ensures comfort in the summer heat, and its myriad of pockets, including a removable hip bag and a provision for a hydration system makes this an awesome choice for anyone into off-road or distance riding!

The thermal inner lining is removal, making the jacket wearable all year round.

BMW Boulder Jacket
Besides being an attractive jacket, the Boulder Jacket transforms easily from a well-ventilated summer jacket to a cold weather jacket by zipping in the waterproof and windproof Venturi climate insert.

BMW Comfort Shell Jacket
This windproof / waterproof jacket is perfect for the summer months due to its light weight and ability to breathe. It’s abrasion resistant and touts the BMW NP armor in the shoulders and elbow and a removable back protector. Most remarkably though, is the attention spent on making this truly waterproof: a double-zipper up the front of the jacket with a waterproof length of material between the two so that little drips of rain can’t find their way between the zipper at highway speeds!
