    Can anyone suggest a good riding pants. I am on the heavier side and the options are limited.

        Just visited the store near to my place in Delhi to checkout the jackets....they got A*,ICON and some RIVELLI jackets, SHARK and BELL helmets. Shark helmets starting from 12k and Bell from 10k upwards....checked out a BELL helmet worth 28K.

        Nothing fitted my budget....however if someone is looking for some high end gear then they can checkit out.

            The Spg helios is the best , it has good ventilation for the summer , good quality and provides good protection too .
            But the only one problem is that it doesn't have a thermal liner , although you can buy one separately.

              Thnx bro, do you know the cost of the thermal liner, and can the rain liner inside it protect us at 12 degree.

                Sorry mate i don't know the price of the thermal liner but you can contact the customer service of SPG . The rain liner is not for the cold condition , for that you need the thermal liner [emoji2] .

                    • Need Help Buying a Riding Jacket

                      I need some help buying a decent riding jacket. Being a student, my budget is under 7k (maybe 8k at the max). I live in Pune, and mostly ride short distances. I searched and came down to the following
                      Cramster breezer 4s mesh- Really like this considering it has all CE approved protectors, looks like best VFM and seems to be the best for pune heat.
                      DSG Nero- I see great reviews for this but think the zip vented jacket may be too hot
                      DSG Triton,SPG Helios and DSG Pheonix- Don't know much about these, but they seem like good buys.

                      I'd really appreciate some insight from riders who have bought and used these.
                      Both negatives and possitives.
                      Also many people cite bad cramster service as a reason to not buy from them. However i bought my gloves and am pretty pleased with them. Are there any other reasons to not buy cramster

                              SPG launched a new all-season jacket today - The Nemesis.

                              The Nemesis is a Mesh/Cordura combination jacket with two removable and interchangeable liners - one thermal and the other rain. Fitted with Type B (Men's Size -Heavy Duty) CE rated moulded PU armour for impact protection and 3M Reflective piping for visibility at night. Mesh construction provides excellent ventilation while the liners are interchangeable to provide thermal insulation or rain protection or both as required. Available from sizes S till 2XL, in two colour combinations, Grey/Black and Orange/Black.

                              Priced at 5900/- (inclusive of all taxes) in all states.

                              Is it correct to say Type B armor translates to Level 2 Armor ?
                              Couldn't find the details of this jacket in the website.

                              Also a small suggestion, the visual part of the jacket could do with some more improvement. The orange/grey stripes are a bit off-putting IMHO
                              I mean, if it could look a bit more attractive to the eye , would have loved it, then again looks are purely personal opinion.

                              Although Function always trumps style, a little more style never hurts right ?

                              Cheers
