Reviewed by: Mau Spencer for 700 miles RRP: £77.99 I was a bit apprehensive when the Tuta Nano oversuit first arrived.

Reviewed by: Carli Ann Smith RRP: £7.99 (10 x sachets) These handy wipes are great should you need to clean your helmet and visor on the go. I keep a sachet in my jacket pocket and use it when I stop off for a cup of tea on my weekend jaunt. Simply wipe the wet…

by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson for 1500miles RRP: £119.99 I got these boots specifically for a couple of recent cruiser launches.

Posted
by
Reviewed by: Carli Ann Smith RRP: £159.99 The Cloud jacket combines everything I look for in my motorcycle clothing: a good fit, a stylish but not overtly ‘girly’ look and a high standard of protection given by strategically placed CE approved armour at the shoulders, elbows and back.

Reviewed by: Neil Manson RRP: £299 I had my reservations about this lid when I first got it: The styling is unusual and it was to be the first time I’d worn a motorcycle helmet with a detachable chin guard. However, since using it for the past year it has grown on me significantly for…

Reviewed by: Tony Carter RRP: Silicon Shine (500ml – £6.99) / Foam Fresh (400ml – £5.99) Muc-Off is a name that you’ll know if you’re serious about cleaning your bikes. I’m not that serious about cleaning bikes, it has to be said, so I am very aware of Muc-Off because it makes life simple. I’ve…

EDZ Merino Underlayers review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Tony Carter RRP: Top – £40 / bottom – £40 You might think that something like this is purely a winter garment, but the truth couldn’t be further from the err… truth. Yes, layers are the secret to warmth in the winter and EDZ’s Merino undergarments are some of the best layers you’ll…
