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: Bruce Wilson for 10,000miles RRP: Jacket £279.99 / Trousers £229.99 This suit combo’s been the backbone of my riding gear over the last two years. It’s been thrown into all kinds of weather from snow storms to sunshine, coping well regardless. Both the jacket and trousers are waterproof, windproof and, most importantly, comfortable…

HJC R-PHA Max helmet review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Wayne Tempest for 2000miles RRP: £359 I was very impressed with the long list of specifications that the HJC R-PHA Max boasted, and was eager to see whether it lived up to my expectations. HJC claim that it has a very strong, but lightweight shell due to its carbon fibre, Aramid and glass…

Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson RRP: Pro Shirt £189 / Pro Pants £159 I’ve only owned this kit a few months, but I’m already a big fan of the product. I’m not one for skimping on protection and with this stuff I feel super safe. The main purpose for getting the kit was to keep me…

Muc-Off Silicon Shine and Foam Fresh review
Posted
by
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…

Schuberth SR1 quick review
Posted
by
RRP: £649.99 I’m new to Schuberth, but already I’m a big fan. I got this SR1 a few months back and have enjoyed its quality feel and great fit for a good few hundred miles to date. The ventilation is top notch and the visor mechanism is really easy to work. It’s noisy, but what else…

Double Biker Tidy (Wall Mounting) review
Posted
by
RRP: £69.98 Finding somewhere to store your bike kit is often a challenge. I know it was for me before I got my hands on this wall-mounting Biker Tidy, which proved quick and easy to assemble. Mine’s mounted high enough to stow full length leathers on hangars, along with my helmets on the shelves and…

BST Black Diamond Carbon Fibre wheels review
Posted
by
RRP: £2805.90 (including both rims, sprocket carrier, sprockets and necessary lightweight bolts) SIZES: 120/70 x17 – 190/50 x 17 I wanted these rims for two reasons; the first being that they looked superb and the second being that I’d heard how beneficial lightweight wheels are to a bike’s handling. Which I can now reaffirm having…
