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…

Knox K-Pack Rucksack review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson RRP: £49.99 This rucksack’s fit for purpose. In the few months that I’ve known it, it’s proven itself to be a great motorcycling companion, but the love stops the minute I dismount. Sounds crazy, but all the features that make this bag suitable for motorcycling in my opinion, work against it…

Tucano Urbano Steve AB jacket review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson RRP: £106.99 (with armour £126.99) Some people look cool naturally, while others, like me, need a little bit of help from jackets like Tucano Urbano’s Steve AB. It caught my attention ahead of a cruiser launch in the States, on which I knew the temperatures were set to be baking. I…

Shoei GT Air Wanderer TC-5 helmet review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Carli Ann Smith RRP: £469.99 This is my new lid from Shoei – the GT Air. It’s the first in the manufacturer’s range to feature an integrated sunvisor which offers 99% UV protection. Often with this ‘integrated’ items, they are a pain to try and open/close/move with your gloves on – but not…

KTM Performance Jacket review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson RRP: £89.92 I picked this jacket up mid-January. The weather was pants, so its usage was relentless. And it’s still getting a hammering six months on. I love it. Without a doubt, my favourite jacket of now. It’s super light in weight, looks fantastic and does a good job of keeping…

BMW Function 3 Rucksack review
Posted
by
Reviewed by: Bruce Wilson for 2000 miles RRP: £105 It’s rare I go a day without lugging a rucksack around, which explains why I’ve got through so many over the years. But none of them have proved quite as well thought out as BMW’s Function 3. When I first got the bag, I had no idea of…
