Best bike purchase I've made. Worst purchase: a $300 Gore-Tex Shakedry jacket. I fell for the breathability hype and immediately understood the pointlessness of trying to stay dry when it's raining -- you might be able to keep the rain out, but the sweat generated will get you soaked and cold. That's the beauty of the Gabba -- it will keep you warm.
I have owned a Gabba for 8 years and it is literally THE best piece of kit i have ever bought. I recently bought a Perfetto RoS 2 jacket however, and that is now looking like a serious contender for the crown
I remember seeing an Ad about the gabba 8 years ago, thing how cool it was. I was in school, so could not afford it really. Now I have 3 of them. Gabba/Perfetto, hands down, the best cycling related purchase I have ever done.
Still have my original Gabba jacket!

I have 3. Convertible perfetto, short perfetto light, and a Gabba short. 3 season Oregon kit. So awesome.

Such an incredible piece of kit. Keeps you warm & dry but not hot. Amazing!!
Cervelo test team you say ? That sounds familiar... 😅
I think I might know of someone who used to ride for them.
A great bit of kit; I have number of Gabbas, Perfettos, plus an Alpha jersey & jacket.....cover all weather bases throughout the year!!
La Gabba è quell'invenzione che ha rivoluzionato il mondo del ciclismo, come la guarnitura compact.
I own one of the original 268 from the Winter 2011 season. Melissa Cate in PDX told me I need to get one!
Great piece of clothing, vest, jersey and jacket
