My new gear came in today.... it all fits and looks good

When I ordered it I figured that I should buy it from one manufacturer and I did...

Joe Rocket Alter Ego 2.0 jacket
Joe Rocket Alter Ego pants
Joe Rocket Meteor Boots
Joe Rocket Gloves.

I zipped it down the the mesh and went for about a 40 mile spin tonight even at 85 degrees I was comfy not HOT

The funny thing about it is the little logos all over make me think of a Buster Brown outfit

new to sport bikes ----maybe this look is fine ....just seems funny ...

what say ye????

Not a fashion show, right? Do the jacket and pants zip together?

mikebike · 09-05-2007, 07:58 PM

PIcs to follow.... later...

I have the rocket black mesh jacket and black mesh pants. The little rocket on the jacket disturbs me as well.
Setup boots black, and aerostitch gloves in brown and tan. They dont match the black theme at all. Oh well.

Any reports on how the meteors work? I've got a larger foot but am looking to order some... Thanks! -John

I have been happy with the boots.... comfy and waterproof

Mike, you're just a wannabee unless you get the matching Joe Rocket socks, underwear, and balaclava.

Joe Rocket is proud of there logo's. On mu JR Reactor the only patch that I removed was the Rocket Logo on the back/kidney pad. It did look much better. then add your own patches. The shoulder Joe Rocket patches to look good, in the end they have a great products.
