Mammut Motion Pro Shell Jacket - Men's - 2009

Mammut made the Men's Motion Pro from three-layer Gore-Tex Pro Shell, so you know you're going to stay dry when you pack up your crampons and tele skis and head into the furor. This technical jacket exists to meet the needs of avid backcountry users. The smart design features stretch shoulder panels for abrasion-resistance, long underarm zips for quick and thorough ventilation, and articulated elbows for freedom of arm movement. Gore's Micro Grid Backer Technology improves breathability, shaves weight, and slides over mid layers like butter.

Bottom Line: The Motion Pro Shell is pared down for simple, effective performance during fast and light alpine pursuits.

This jacket claims to be completely waterproof. But I want to know if it will still keep me dry after biking an hour in the rain. Has anyone experienced this? And is it as breathable as it claims?

I've not tried this one in particular, but being Gore Tex brand, it is "guaranteed" or your money back. http://www.gore-tex.com/remote/Satellite/content/care-center/our-satisfaction-guaranteeThat said, biking in a jacket like this will almost surely make you sweat unless it's at a very leisurely pace. Add rain and you're gonna get wet from somewhere, either inside or out. Will it leak or wet out? Maybe.... the only way to know is try it. Breathable? That's a gray area of all waterproof/breathables. Every person is different, so every person will tell you something different. Yes, it breathes, but to what extent depends entirely on the individual and how they function.Personally, I would never cycle in a WB jacket because I find even a uncoated shell lacks real breathability, so how would a WB one be better? It wouldn't. The only shell I do use is a Pearl Izumi Vagabond, with zip-off sleeves and a caped vent in the back. Ventilation is the key. Any jacket for cycling needs a caped back and some sort of venting, either pit zips or large chest pockets. If they made such a jacket in WB fabric, you'd likely have your best chance to stay drier from both inside and out.

This is an awesome jacket. Just about everything about this jacket is perfect. Taking it out of the wrap you can tell this thing is extremely well made. The only issue is the length of the sleeves. They are about 2 inches too long. I am keeping this jacket despite this because the rest of the jacket is superb.
