Experience with the fabric Epic by Nextec?

Anyone ever used this stuff? How waterproof is it? Will it hold up to the wear that a saddle dishes out?

I have it in two jackets by Cannondale, the stuff is amazing. It is equally as good as Gortex, but not as hard.

I do not know what is it like in trousers, but its waterproof and drying qualities are fantastic. I do a commute of 110 miles a week in wet Ireland, so it gets a good old test.

If you do go for trousers I would be interested in hearing in say 6 months how you get on
