It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Are those Frog Toggs breathable at all? I was thinking about getting some for my regular bike rides.

Yes, but in my experience, not quite as breathable as higher end breathable membranes (like nicer/newer Gore-tex or eVent). Definitely way better than my old tarp style poncho and a still better than mid range stuff like Marmot precip. If you don't mind spending the extra money, eVent is amazing but for the price, Frogg Toggs are still pretty great!
