Hi,

I use the tights (bought from Performance) almost everyday. The only time I don't wear them is when I ride w/o (using leg warmers) which is only possible in Switzerland during the summer months (commute, and it's colder then...)

The arm warmers are fine, but not to the comfort lever of Gonzo et al. I used them yesterday, and they were great (amazingly, they don't reflect under my Burley jacket...) but the fit is rather, well...long. They do do the job, but somehow they aren't as perfect for my upper arms as the Gonzo ones I normally use.

I have NOT found that the tights cause water build-up when wearing them. Actually, they are great unless you're getting pounded by major rain. I have used them in weather from between -10 to 15 C without problems. As they are lighter than my normal winter wear, it helps with heat dissipation, which is usually more of a problem.

I like them, use them, and would recommend them highly.

P.S. oh...one thing...the fabric isn't bomb-proof...it's rather delicate. Still, I've used mine (tights) for two fall-winter-spring years now, and they are still holding up.
