Cheap cycle jacket?

mondeo

Can anyone recommended a light weight jacket for cycling? My regular one is too heavy and making me sweat unfortunately. I was thinking of a light rain coat of some description. Any cheaper options out there other then usually quite expensive dedicated cycling coats?

Thanks

Keep an eye out on ebay especially for old team kit jackets, I picked up a lovely Nalini jacket for €30 which was nearly brand new!

I got the one in the link for the winter. Not overly light but not heavy. Happy enough with it and its nice and toasty in the cold mornings.
I refuse to buy expensive jackets as if you go sliding on black ice and rip it .....
Plenty of other jackets on there as well.

That's a lovely jacket I must say

I orders the rain jacket as well but turned out to be a shade to big. Gonna order another dedicated rain one of them.

The problem buying clothing online though is the fit may not be ideal. Its great to be able to try stuff on first. The prices bike shops in Dublin are looking for relatively simple clothing is abit mad.

Yeah the one I linked is a perfect large but the rain one was on the bigger side of large.
