Textile Review: Aerostich Roadcrafter suit

Andy Downes, 13 May 2013 08:35

Aerostich Roadcrafter suit: £600 approx (plus import duty and shipping of about £300) Tester: Andy Downes Time/miles: 50,000-plus/eight years What’s good? If you ride every day the Aerostich Roadcrafter suit is the answer to the hassle of getting in and out of riding kit – you step in fully-clothed, close two zips and then it’s on. All I need to ...

Clothing Review: Draggin Biker jeans

Richard Newland, 07 May 2013 17:21

Draggin Biker jeans £169.99 Time tested: 30,000 miles/2.5 years What’s good? Few things seem to divide opinion more than riding in Kevlar jeans. Personally, I love riding in them. I know from independent research that these particular jeans last over four seconds in SATRA abrasion tests and that the material used in their construction is identical to that used in ...

Suit Review: Held Race-Evo one-piece leathers

Tim Thompson, 07 May 2013 17:02

Held Race-Evo one-piece leathers £1199.99 Time tested: 5500 miles/7 months What’s good? Down we go: Onto the shoulder, forearm and heel of hand, followed by a 70mph slide and an involuntary roll onto back and arse, stand up too soon, fall over head first and face plant into the grass. Test complete. I’m fairly sceptical about all the protective extras ...

Suit review: Spidi T2 Wind Pro Kangaroo

Bruce Dunn, 02 May 2013 16:39

Spidi T2 Wind Pro Kangaroo one-piece suit, £1299.99Time tested: 12,500 miles/three years What’s good: This is the most comfortable race suit I’ve ever had. Some of the road tests we do on MCN involve us having to wear leathers for hours, often in particularly hot conditions, and this suit makes that almost bearable. Despite it being off-the-peg, people always ask ...

Jacket review: Tucano Urbano Libeccio AB

Mykel Nicolaou, 13 November 2012 11:40

Tucano Urbano Libeccio AB jacket, £169.99Miles covered/time: 2000/eight months What’s good: They don’t come any more stylish and practical than this all year round use jacket. It’s a well cut piece of kit, with CE approved protection on the elbows and shoulders and a neat removable inner quilted liner makes it ideal for urban riding all year. I particularly like ...

Leathers review: Alpinestars Racing Replica one-piece

Michael Neeves, 19 October 2012 14:26

Alpinestars Racing Replica one-piece suit. £1999.99Time used: One year What’s good: These protected me from serious injury a few weeks ago after a cold tyre highside going in to Graham Hill bend at Brands Hatch, on my race bike. It was one of those crashes when I fell from a great height rather than speed, so it’s more about how ...

Product review: Rukka jacket and trousers

Simon Brown, 05 September 2012 10:04

Rukka jacket/trousers (superseded, try Arma-S £1099/£769)Miles covered/time: 15,000/five years What’s good: Liner in, vents zipped up, winter rain… liner out, vents zipped open, summer sun… this truly is all-weather riding gear. More than five years of almost daily use and my Rukka gear is still in great condition. It has never leaked and all the zips and fasteners have remained ...

Product Review: Alpinestars Tech Chest Guard

Michael Neeves, 23 August 2012 11:30

Alpinestars Tech Chest Guard £44.99Time used: Six yearsWhat’s good: I’m so used to wearing a chest protector now that if I forget to use it, I go into a blind panic, especially if I’m racing. I feel as naked without it as I do without a back protector. I use it in my race leathers on-track mainly, but also in ...

Product review: Alpinestars Quick Seal Out Jacket and Pants

Michael Neeves, 16 August 2012 09:50

Alpinestars Quick Seal Out Jacket and Pants £89.99Time used: Six months What’s good: I’ve had more use out of these two-piece waterproofs than I’d like this year, thanks to all the rain we’ve had. They’re lightweight and fold away to almost nothing, so you can keep them in a rucksack or tank bag without taking up loads of room, which ...

Jacket review: Bering Shelby

Liam Marsden, 20 July 2012 16:14

Bering Shelby jacket, £327.99Time owned: Two months What's good? The Knox armour in the shoulders and elbows is very comfy and fits perfectly to my frame (lanky, slight). It’s one of the thickest leather jackets I’ve worn and as such can be worn more often than most, but it still manages to keep me relatively cool when it is hot ...
