Warmth, protection and comfort even under the harshest winter conditions

Cold winter winds, sudden rain showers, and the temperature fluctuations of long rides… The Element model was developed precisely for these conditions. Based on the aerodynamic fit of the Pro Team Vent , this new model uses special technical winter fabric combinations to provide maximum protection and a stable body temperature.

Full winter protection with Paves fabric (front, back and collar)

When the harsh winter wind whips your face or you're caught in a sudden downpour, Element is there for you. The PAVES winter fabric, used throughout the chest, back, and collar areas, creates a stable and warm microclimate inside, no matter what's happening outside.

What makes Paves special is not just its density and warmth, but the combination of three different layers into a high-performance structure: The outer surface is water-repellent, the middle membrane completely blocks the wind, and the soft, brushed inner layer traps body heat. This makes the word "cold" meaningless, even on wet and windy winter days.

As soon as you wear this fabric, you will feel the difference: The weight of the material gives strength, the substance provides security, and the inner softness ensures comfort from the first to the last kilometer.

• Raindrops simply bead up and roll off the surface.

• Wind cannot penetrate.

• Body temperature remains constant without fluctuations.

• Despite the robust winter structure, your movement is never restricted thanks to the flexibility.

In short: Paves is not an ordinary winter fabric, but a high-performance and premium outer layer optimized for cycling that inspires confidence.

Thanks to the unique Drystorm™ membrane technology, the Element vest becomes the perfect solution for riders who want to stay warm and protected from wet conditions in winter.

And most importantly: this feeling of warmth isn't oppressive – thanks to intelligent thermal management, the ideal climate is always maintained inside. Whether on early morning rides, cold descents after long climbs, or in sudden rain… Element constantly works to keep you at the right temperature.

High Speed ​​Winter Side Panels – Intelligent Heat Management

To control overheating, which can occur with thick winter fabrics, the High Speed ​​Winter Aero stripe fabric was used on the sides.

The purpose of this fabric:

• Discharge the warm air generated during the journey in a controlled manner via the sides.

• Prevent overheating inside the vest and maintain thermal balance.

• Increase the overall freedom of movement of the vest.

The same fabric was also used on the inside of the collar to add extra softness and comfort to the neck area – especially in cold weather, a soft contact surface on the neck makes a big difference.

Functional design: 2-way YKK® zipper

Just like the Pro Team Vent, the Element also features a YKK® zipper that can be opened from both the top and the bottom.

The advantages:

• You can quickly reach the back pockets of your jersey without having to take off your vest.

• If you get too warm, you can open the zipper from the bottom to allow controlled ventilation.

• In cold weather, using it with the top closed and the bottom slightly open is significantly more comfortable.

An indispensable part for the new generation of winter driving

Element is a design that adapts the logic of the classic wind vest to winter conditions. It not only blocks the wind, but is also water-resistant, warm, breathable, and offers a snug fit.

It is versatile:

• On cold winter days as a protective layer,

• In combination with a jersey and long-sleeved baselayer,

• Or as an extra layer under a jacket on rainy days.
