10,000 mm Waterproof Protection for Young Cyclists
The Madison Freewheel Youth Waterproof Jacket features waterproof fabric and fully taped seams to help prevent rain entering through the material and stitching. Its 10,000 mm waterproof rating provides protection during wet-weather rides, while the DWR coating helps water bead on the outer surface. This makes it a practical choice for children cycling in changeable British weather, whether riding to school, exploring local trails or enjoying weekend family adventures.
Breathable Fabric for Active Riding
With a breathability rating of 10,000 g/m/24 hours, the Freewheel Youth Jacket is designed to allow moisture vapour to escape while maintaining protection against external rain. This helps manage moisture build-up during more energetic riding, providing additional comfort when climbing hills, cycling to school or spending longer periods on the bike.
Comfortable Fit with Stretch Fabric
The jacket features a relaxed fit with articulated construction designed around the seated cycling position. Stretch fabric allows young riders to move comfortably when pedalling, steering and getting on or off their bikes. Tailored elasticated cuffs provide a comfortable fit around the wrists and are designed to work neatly with cycling gloves.
Packable Design for Everyday Adventures
The Madison Freewheel Youth Waterproof Jacket can be rolled up and stored in a backpack or pannier when not required. Its lightweight, packable construction makes it particularly useful for family bike rides, school journeys and days when the weather may change unexpectedly.
Reflective Details for Improved Visibility
Reflective inserts on the rear hem and arm help make young riders more noticeable to other road users when illuminated by headlights. These details provide an additional visibility feature for cycling in dull weather, early mornings and fading daylight.
Practical Chest Pocket
A chest pocket with a water-resistant zip provides convenient storage for small essentials such as keys. The water-resistant fastening helps protect the pocket opening from rain, although moisture-sensitive items should be kept in additional waterproof protection.
Who Is the Madison Freewheel Youth Waterproof Jacket For?
The Madison Freewheel Youth Waterproof Jacket is ideal for children and teenagers who need a comfortable, practical waterproof cycling jacket for everyday riding. Its combination of waterproof protection, breathable fabric, reflective details and compact packability makes it suitable for cycling to school, family bike rides, recreational mountain biking and exploring local trails in changeable weather.
