Shimano dominates the road component market. But the road clothing market? Not so much. After a few rides in the brand's new winter S-Phyre pieces, I can say some of it is quite good and some of it, like the bib tights, isn't.

The hits: Shimano S-Phyre Wind Resistant Jersey, Base Layer and Toe Covers

The S-Phyre Wind Resistant Jersey ($299) is closer to a lightweight winter jacket than a jersey. Thin, thermal material throughout keeps you warm down to freezing or so temperatures during a moderate level of exertion.

The 'Windresistant Jersey' functions similarly to a stretchy GoreTex piece

The fit is relatively slim and longish in the torso.

The miss: Shimano S-Phyre Bib Long Tights
