Wool is wool and so long as it's a cut and softness you are comfortable with it will work just fine on the bike whether or not it is bike specific. I don't own a bike specific piece of clothing anymore, but I wear wool year round (skivvies and t-shirt in summer, other layers as needed). Brilliant stuff. Add in a cotton shirt over a few layers of wool and you have a great, breathable cold weather wind protection system. I use that down to about 20˚F.
