Clothing Review: Oxford Merino Cosy neck tube

Richard Newland, 20 May 2013 09:20

Oxford Merino Cosy neck tube, £19.99 Tester: Richard Newland Miles/time: 1500 miles/three weeks What’s good? I’m not a big fan of neck tubes but at sub-zero temperatures they’re an invaluable warmth giver and draught excluder. This Merino is a new addition to Oxford’s massive range of neck tubes, offering great thermal properties. It’s breathable, has an anti-bacterial treatment to keep ...

Helmet Review: HJC RPHA Max flip-front helmet

Tony Hoare, 20 May 2013 09:17

HJC RPHA Max flip-front helmet, £359.99 Tester: Tony Hoare Miles/time: 1800 miles/one month What’s good? I’ve shied away from flip-up lids because I don’t like the image, but the RPHA Max soothed those concerns enough for me to use it on an 1800-mile trip to Italy. It’s essentially HJC’s RPHA10 race helmet, but with the convenience of a flip-front helmet. ...

Tools Review: Beta Torx screwdrivers

Tim Thompson, 20 May 2013 09:12

Beta Torx screwdrivers, £67.44 Tester: Tim Thompson Time used: Two years What’s good? I use these for nipping-up bodywork and screen retaining bolts: fasteners that need a light touch, just a couple of ftlb torque. The BetaGrip handles are lovely in the hand. They have great control and feel – and make me feel like a highly-regarded MotoGP mechanic. These ...

Clothing Review: Knox Cold Killers Sport top and pants

Andy Davidson, 20 May 2013 09:09

Knox Cold Killers Sport top £54.99 and pants, £44.99 Tester: Andy Davidson Miles/time used: 3600 miles/ three months What’s good? I used these on a sub-zero trip to Europe. The set was thrown on top of my base layer thermals when the going got really tough as a final layer before my motorcycle suit. The clever kit is totally windproof ...

Luggage Review: Ventura Luggage System

Alison Silcox, 20 May 2013 09:04

Ventura Luggage System £280 (bag £112, rack £52, brackets £116) Tester: Alison Silcox Miles/time used: 6000 miles/seven years What’s good? I’ve been a fan of the Ventura system since my husband bought a set for his Ducati 998S in 2002. It’s a very simple system to use, with a bike-specific fitting kit and rack that takes a universal 51-litre bag. ...

Luggage Review: Kriega US-20 tailpack

Richard Newland, 13 May 2013 08:54

Kriega US-20 tailpack, £75 Tester: Richard Newland Time/miles: Five years/20,000 miles What’s good? I have a real soft spot for Kriega’s unapologetic, but quietly understated, excellence. I’ve used its R35 and R30 rucksacks over the last six years, and have had this US-20 pack for more than five. The roll-top closure makes a perfect waterproof seal, and the waterproof inner ...

Accessory Review: Tucano Urbano Nano Shoe Covers

Steve Farrell, 13 May 2013 08:52

Tucano Urbano Nano Shoe Covers, £33.99 Tester: Steve Farrell Time/miles: 2000 miles/18 months What’s good? These really do make old boots waterproof again. They fold up into a zip bag not much bigger than a fat wallet, which is why they have ‘Nano’ in the name. They’re no less waterproof for it. I’ve never known them to let in a ...

Accessory Review: Granger’s G-Max Universal Footwear Proofer

Steve Farrell, 13 May 2013 08:49

Granger’s G-Max Universal Footwear Proofer, £5.99 Tester: Steve Farrell Time/miles: One month/1000 miles What’s good? The trouble with waterproof attire is that, sooner or later, it stops being waterproof. No one wants to chuck a costly pair of boots. In theory, this spray saves you that pain. Spray it onto damp, clean leather, and ‘maximum waterproofing’ will be restored. Also ...

Book Review: That Near-Death Thing, by Rick Broadbent

Phil West, 13 May 2013 08:44

That Near-Death Thing, by Rick Broadbent, £16.99 Tester: Phil West What’s good? The most compelling book about the TT I’ve yet come across. Written by Times sports writer Rick Broadbent, it paints a vivid picture of the highs and lows of the 2011 TT through the first-hand accounts of Guy Martin, John McGuinness, Conor Cummins and Michael Dunlop. Broadbent’s success ...
