re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Guys,

Looking for riding boots. I want the sort that offer shin protection and have grooves on the soles. For eg if I ride to some place and their is some amount of hiking to be done, the boot should not disappoint.

I particularly liked TCX Track Evo WP boots. They were reviewed on Overdrive.in by Shumi. But those boots are not available at the store it seems.

They cost 16k and I cant stretch beyond that, that is like top limit.

O'neal Elements (Rs. 14 K) also seems okeish, but the sole hasen't got enough grooves.

Please suggest if there are some other options..

Take a look at the Alpinestars SMX6 boots. I paid 16.5 for my pair.
They not only have shin protection but also prevent the ankle from twisting. The boots are extremely comfy and have broken in quite early is what I feel and I had no issues walking around or climbing up/down the stairs..
The sole has a nice groovy pattern. And there is a water proof version I believe.

However if you are looking at "Off Road" boots, They are very sturdy and I think walking around them will be a slight botheration.

re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Hi,
I'm facing pain in my palms(mostly right) after just 20-30 minutes of riding on my KTM D200 on the highways with mostly upright position at an average speed of 80-100kmph. Can someone help me out in choosing the right gloves with proper padding(right now I'm using the cheap ass Pro-Biker gloves) or can the issue be solved by replacing the handle bar grips??

These pro-biker gloves are no good. The plastic piece on the palm with they have causes this fatigue.
Get good quality gloves and this problem will be solved. The small vibes are taken care of.
Cheapest in the market are Rynox Rampage and Cramster Twister, both retailing for ₹1700.
I personally use Rampage.

Also try to hold the grips lightly. Too tight, the fatigue will set in.

The Cramster ones look better, will check them out today. The Pro Biker gloves was just given to me by one of my friend just to get used to wearing gloves, and I've gotten so used to wearing gloves, that riding even for a kilometer or two feels incorrect and uncomfortable.

Universal : Riding Gears Thread

I saw Cramster Twister and Flex both costing below 1700. I did not get to see the Rynox rampage anywhere though.
Anyone from Pune if someone can help me where can I find Rynox gear??
I have visited Cramster store, Kothrud (near McDonald karve road),
Probikers, MG Road, and
Laxmi Auto, JM Road,
Planet DSG was closed by the time I reached there.
So Could not find the Rynox gloves anywhere. Are there any other riding gear stores in Pune?

re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

[MENTION=62961]wallpapers123[/MENTION] you won't get Rynox at dsg. Try Moto 101 (Dhole Patil road).
