Vengence Jacket
Estremo Pants
Pro’s. Well made, good armour, leather feels and appears to be excellent quality. Price
Con’s. These are pretty minor. Lining on jacket is not that great (feels almost unlined). Zips a little weak.
Pants:
Pants are awesome, Armour moulded to riding position quite quickly and made for a comfortable ride. Ridden through summer and now winter. Warm enough so far with out leggings under them but I would probably get some merino thermals to go under them next year. In summer I wear some under armour leggings to help keep cool and make them easier to get off after a decent ride.
The only negative (and this is a little unfair to Quasi since I have not given him the chance to fix it) is the zip puller broke off pretty early on and I have put in a key ring thing. Could do with some loops on them so you can hang them on a hanger.
Jacket
Nice tight fit. Gives you a good sense of security. Not much room under it for winter warm things, which is why I am looking for some windproof thermals.
The venting works well in summer, as cool as you could expect to be in black leathers in the middle of summer. In winter it has been f*ckin freezing. –4deg C in the Tron. But I would still rather be wearing them than my cordura jacket, The leathers just feel much safer.
Even after 6mts I can’t zip the jacket up completely as it chokes me a bit. I thought this would soften up a bit over time, but it hasn’t.
Conclusions.
I have never worn top leathers, alpinestars etc. But I think Quasi’s stuff is right up there. He is awesome to deal with and really went the extra mile when I was choosing my gear, didn’t pressure me, offered great advice and top service.
I would recommend that anyone could buy of Quasi with absolute confidence. If you have an issue he will be right there to help you out.
Top stuff, top bloke. I will be buying more off Quasi in the future.
I would buy again.
I would recommend to a friend.
