Leatt HydraDri 5.0 MTB Mono Suit Waterproof Breathable Mountain Bike Gear

The Leatt HydraDri 5.0 MTB Mono Suit V26 is engineered to deliver superior protection and comfort for mountain bikers facing demanding weather conditions. Constructed with Leatt’s advanced HydraDri Max 3-layer membrane, this mono suit provides an impressive 30,000mm waterproof rating alongside 30,000g/m² breathability, ensuring riders remain dry without sacrificing ventilation. Its PFAS-free durable water repellent (DWR) finish enhances water resistance while supporting environmentally responsible practices.

Designed to meet the rigorous demands of off-road cycling, this suit incorporates innovative features such as the patented Ride Adaptive Hood (RAhD) with a magnetic attachment system, allowing seamless adjustment over helmets or convenient stowage on the back. The internal suspender system and adjustable waist belt deliver a secure and customised fit, complemented by ergonomic pre-shaped sleeves and adjustable cuffs for both arms and legs. Reinforced Deflextion abrasion protection on critical zones like knees, elbows, and seat areas ensures long-lasting durability without compromising flexibility, making it a reliable choice for serious riders.

Ventilation is expertly controlled through laser-cut vent holes, a two-way front zipper with ClimbVent connector, and strategically placed upper and lower hidden zippers, enabling effortless airflow regulation. The suit also offers practical storage solutions with six outer YKK zip pockets, a chest pocket equipped with a microfiber goggle wiper, and an internal phone sleeve, keeping essential items secure and accessible throughout your ride.
