These spring days can be very fickle. If you want to get on your bike now, you\u2018ll have to be prepared for all eventualities and weather changes. Of course, this ability to change is primarily required from outerwear, but other equipment should also play along. And that&#8217;s exactly where&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bike-discount.de\/en\/pearl-izumi\">Pearl Izumi<\/a>&nbsp;comes in. Fortunately, the American bike brand icon is broadly positioned in the road bike sector and has three lines to offer, which reflect the different requirements of road bikers. The heart of the range is certainly the ELITE series: a perfect blend of comfort and performance. But Tobi&#8217;s spring test didn&#8217;t stop there &#8211; it went through Pearl Izumi&#8217;s entire range!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:30.73459%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE_Action.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"998\" data-lbwps-height=\"1500\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE_Action-100x150.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE_Action-838x1260.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE_Action-838x1260.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE_Action-838x1260.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=998&#038;ssl=1 998w\" alt=\"Pearl Izumi ELITE in Action\" data-height=\"1500\" data-id=\"1519\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/pearl_izumi_elite_action-2\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE_Action-838x1260.jpg\" data-width=\"998\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE_Action-838x1260.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:69.26541%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"998\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"Pearl Izumi ELITE\" data-height=\"998\" data-id=\"1518\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/pearl_izumi_elite-2\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE-1260x838.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Pearl_Izumi_ELITE-1260x838.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a02 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/pearl-izumi-transitional-outfit-review\/#onto_the_bike_%e2%80%a6\" >Onto the bike \u2026<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/pearl-izumi-transitional-outfit-review\/#my_pearli_conclusion_regarding_the_transitional_outfit\" >My Pearli conclusion regarding the transitional outfit<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"onto_the_bike_%e2%80%a6\"><\/span>Onto the bike \u2026<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201e \u2026 with the jacket<\/strong>: Sometimes, the transitional period is not so easy.

insulation thanks to its windproof properties. Its breathability is also good for a jacket in its price range. After all, whenever you&#8217;re under a lot of strain, you have to make sure that it doesn&#8217;t get too wet underneath your clothing. The thin textiles also make the jacket\/vest look good when stowed away; the packing volume is surprisingly small. This is certainly an important aspect for a transitional jacket! In addition, this characteristic qualifies the ELITE Escape Convertible to be carried along as a constant emergency companion in summer as well.<br>The size chart worked reliably: I ordered size L according to the chart &#8211; and it fitted. The fit is typically &#8216;race tight&#8217;, but not too tight &#8211; in other words, exactly as the ELITE series wants to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter

make the sleeves and shoulder pieces surprisingly easy to take off. This means that the sleeves cannot be zipped off individually, but form a bond with the narrow back part. This is good, because you don&#8217;t run the risk of losing a single sleeve. Plus, the additional material on the back also makes a difference in the warmth performance of the jacket\/vest.<br>But I particularly like the safety aspect of the ELITE Escape Convertible! For one, of course, the intense bright colouring of the yellow version is immediately noticeable. But also, Pearl Izumi&#8217;s HiViz technology is used here, which converts existing light into conspicuous signal colours even in poor lighting conditions. I always felt very safe, even on dark February evenings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div

pants very comfortable and warming. Their wearing comfort was not only due to the SELECT Escape Chamois, but also by the smooth and cuddly material, which easily wicks away moisture and leaves rain outside. The cut is &#8211; as you would expect from tights &#8211; tight, but comfortable. The size chart and the actual size match up, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I chose them as transitional pants. And was taught a better lesson &#8230; because from my point of view, these pants are also suitable for year-round riders. With them, temperatures can easily go below 10\u00b0C. By the way, I tested the version without bibs. Generally, I would recommend the variant with bibs. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bike-discount.de\/en\/buy\/pearl-izumi-select-escape-thermal-cycling-tights-with-pad-640297\">SELECT Escape Thermal Cycling<\/a>&nbsp;is a real alternative for riders who want to train outdoors all year round. But of course it also works well during the transitional period, as the high-quality fabric ensures good moisture transport and is not too thick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div

I chose the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bike-discount.de\/en\/buy\/pearl-izumi-elite-thermal-toe-cover-1297\">ELITE Thermal Toe Cover<\/a>&nbsp;in L\/XL for shoe size 44, which was a great fit. The cut-out for pedal cleats is large enough and the workmanship overall is great &#8211; they&#8217;re very sturdy. So far I\u2018ve only used overshoes if anything, so I was a bit sceptical if these things would do the trick.<br>I was a little surprised when I compared riding with them to riding without them. The difference was quite clear &#8211; the toe warmers have a good heat output. Their advantage is quite clear: they\u2018re used at decisive points of the shoe, where wind, cold and rain penetrate it most. And in the neon yellow version they even contribute to safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2026 with the gloves<\/strong>: Matching the convertible wind jacket, I tested the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bike-discount.de\/en\/buy\/pearl-izumi-escape-softshell-lite-gloves-763666\">Escape Softshell Lite Gloves<\/a>&nbsp;extensively. These are very light while offering excellent wind and cold insulation.<br>The grip on the handlebars is fully guaranteed thanks to silicone strips on the inner surfaces. And if you ever want to check your Strava route on your smartphone, you don&#8217;t even have to take off the gloves, as their fingertips are suitable for operating a smartphone or bike computer.

For the hobby biker, this is a great piece at a good price. The vest alone can also be used as an emergency vest in summer, which every road biker needs, due to its small packing size. But if you call yourself a pro, you might be interested in a higher quality level out of Pearl Izumis product range.<br>I would also recommend my other test subjects. Their sizes always corresponded to the manufacturer&#8217;s specifications, which I personally find very important &#8211; especially if you want to buy them online.
