REV’IT! Nucleus vs Proteus review

[@christopherfatigati1301]

perfect video. I own the nucleus and i use it as a mesh jacket above 20°C or as a base layer under a waterproof jacket (for example rev'it component). The abrasion resistance AA was important for me during asphalt riding. It feels much lighter than the sand4 jacket.

[@effuseakay]

Do you find it good for the summer, like 35-40°C weather?
Also any recommendations for sizing?
Thank you :)

[@christopherfatigati1301]

@ the airflow is amazing. The only problem is the black color. maybe the tornado or airwave from rev it would also be a solution. the sizing is normal. I fit in a L like in my sand or echelon jacket.
Don‘t forget to wear a functional base layer, because the jacket feels a little bit sticky when sweating…

Good review, thanks a lot for taking this time to do it.

Thanks a lot for this review, made me go for the Proteus. Will use it underneath my KLIM dakar jacket and with really high temperatures with a jersey only.

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

Sounds like a cool combo :)

[@Nick-xu2hh]

This was a good review, thank you

[@koldomachofernandez]

Me interesa el nucleus pero debo comprar el ajustado del cuerpo o algo flojo mejor ? Gracias y feliz navidad

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

It depends on how you ride and your body type, but Nucleus is less flexible so a bigger size should be safer choice. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

[@flip.910]

Thanks for the review! Which size are you wearing?

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

Hi, both are size XL

[@krasi.todorov]

@@ADV.NO.Mad1 How tall are you and how much do you weigh? It’ll be helpful for me, because I’m wondering what size to purchase 🙏 I’m 186, 82kg. Thanks, man! ❤️

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

197cm tall and 103kg

[@Miguelkse1]

Can i wear it for Harley Davison motor?

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

Don't let anyone tell you what you can and can't do 😉From my perspective this kit will work fine on any kind of bike. Of course, if you want to drive very fast it is worth checking the AAA protection gear

[@Miguelkse1]

Thanks very much. I drive slow so, this kit is for me. 👍

[@yamz342]

what size would you think for 6' 80kg?

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

Best you can do is refer to rev'it size chart on their page, if you have any trouble just contact Rev'it Customer Service, they are relay helpful

[@adamfriedrich1464]

Nic Pan nie powiedział o wentylacji. Nucleus bez koszulki vs Proteus z koszulką?

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

W obu przypadkach wentylacja jest na bardzo wysokim poziomie. Wydaje mi się, że w samym Nucleusie jest minimalnie lepsza. Na dojazdy do pracy w bardzo ciepłe dni, wyciągam ochraniacze klatki piersiowej dla jeszcze lepszej wentylacji 😉

[@kiddfpv]

Man i was gonna buy the nucleus but they’re out of stock of my size! :(

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

Wait for 2025, maybe they'll be back on stock after the new year. Many companies do this 😉

[@martyn_g]

I bought a Proteus. Why? Purely for the fit. For my skinnier arms, the Nucleus forearms simply flopped around too much. If you have skinny arms, skip the Nucleus.

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

True, Proteus is more elastic so it can be a better choice for people who aren't 100% standard size

[@tristantuma4315]

Thanks Nomad! Helpful as the Rev'It website is vague.

[@ADV.NO.Mad1]

I'll be honest, I didn't know 100% what I was buying when I was ordering Nucleus, so I thought that this video might be useful to someone.
