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 ...

Tyre review: Michelin Pilot Road 3

Andy Downes, 26 November 2012 11:15

Michelin Pilot Road 3 tyres, £235 (approx)Miles covered/time: 1000 miles/six months What’s good: I tried a set of these Michelins on a Honda CBF1000 that I was running over winter a while back and they were amazing. Sticking them on my old 1998 Honda CBR600F has transformed the braking, handling and wet grip. The bike is so much better than ...

Product review: Knox Cold Killers mens sport top

Liam Marsden, 30 April 2012 12:01

Knox Cold Killers mens sport top, £54.99Miles covered/time: 500/two months What's good: It’s lovely and snug and surprisingly, for something so thin, warm. The arms and front are both windproof and keep your torso nice and warm during cold rides. The entire garment is lined with a fleece material that feels soft on the skin and doesn’t irritate like some ...

Helmet review: Arai Tour-X3

Steve Farrell, 02 February 2012 15:02

Arai Tour-X3, £354.99 (£299 on MCN Shop; superseded by Arai Tour-X4) Miles covered/time: 3500/one year What’s good: It’s an off- and on-road lid in one.  Detach the peak and you have a normal helmet for the road. Put it back on and it’s an off-road/adventure lid with a visor. The Arai name gives you a certain confidence in the level ...

Heat Holders Men's Long Leg socks

Marc Abbott, 15 December 2011 11:58

Heat Holders Men’s Long Leg socks, £7 Time used: Two months. What’s good: Putting these socks on for the first time was a one of those rare revelatory motorcycle moments. They’re lining with a gloriously fleecy layer that has so far helped to keep my feet absolutely, 100% toasty in temperatures not far off freezing. They stretch to the top ...

Revit Tarmac one-piece leathers

Liam Marsden, 02 November 2011 12:42

Revit Tarmac one-piece leathers, £699.99 Miles covered/time: 2500/two months What's good?: I don’t remember these leathers being particularly stiff when I first put them on, and after a day of road testing they were nice and supple – the cut of these leathers seems to match my lanky 6ft 1in frame perfectly, with all the armour in exactly the right ...

Scorpion Exo-1000

Dan Aspel, 12 October 2011 17:05

Scorpion Exo-1000, £259.99Miles covered/time: 600/two months What’s good: Surprisingly, the inflatable cheek pads inside the Scorpion EXO-1000 aren’t just a gimmick. The extra support they provide is reassuring as they manage to expand without exerting too much pressure against any one area. The pump and release buttons are well placed on the inside of the chin guard and are as generally ...

Alpinestars El Nino waterproofs

Andy Downes, 26 September 2011 17:19

Alpinestars El Nino waterproofs, £89.99 Miles covered/time: 1500miles/three years What’s good: They are completely waterproof which is handy as that is their only aim. I always find it incredibly disappointing when a one-use motorcycle garment fails to perform but there is no such worry with this one-piece waterproof oversuit. Some of the rides I have worn these Alpinestars El Nino ...

Book review: David Jefferies – The Official Biography

Michael Neeves, 23 August 2011 17:56

David Jefferies – The Official Biography, £9.99Time read: Two months What’s good: I missed this biography when it was originally released in hardback in 2009, but now it’s available in paperback. It’s a book for committed Jefferies fans and it tracks his life through childhood and on to the beginning of his road racing career - starting club racing in ...

Alpinestars SMX-2 Air Carbon glove

Michael Neeves, 03 August 2011 15:49

Alpinestars SMX-2 Air Carbon glove, £54.95 Miles covered/time: 1300/three months What’s good: These wrist-length summer Alpinestars gloves are a mix of leather, mesh, with a carbon-fibre knuckle protector. I haven’t been able to wear them too much as they’re only good for sunny weather, but I’ve used them for a sunny Moto Guzzi launch in Italy with two-piece leathers, on a ...
