        You need to decide short or long first. Have a look at TBG Gear (Bangalore Let's Gear up) on FB, Spartan website, Bachoo Motors etc.

          After years of dreaming to own some gears finally I'm in a stage to buy one🙈. Have decided to go for Spartan Nemesis jacket as I found that it is the best jacket for my budget with sastec armors. Btw 95℅ of my commute will be in Bangalore traffic that to sarjapur. I'll be wearing this jacket daily to office so would like to know will it last for atleast 2years as it won't be feasible to spend 7k if it doesnt last for couple of years.. if that is the case I would rather go with Atlas or razor..
          And for the gloves I serious have no idea which one to go for, as most of them are priced almost the price of a jacket and are too flashy. The only cheaper gloves which I liked is dsg phoenix as it's kind of simple with some protection. If anybody have a any alternate choice please mention.

            I have been using Nemesis from past one year. No wear or tear, never had a crash so i guess i can use it for few more years. I have the first version of this jacket with CE approved armours. I wear it to office, sometimes after removing the armours so it's more comfortable to wear. It's a good jacket for the price. Nemesis 2 is indeed a better option with sas-tech armour.

              Hey guys, recently i went to a shop and tried on zeus spider gloves as well as spartan pegasus gloves. I noticed a major difference in them in that while the spider gloves had foam padding throughout the glove and were a lot more comfortable, the spartan gloves had no foam padding whatsoever (except maybe palm for protection). Due to the lack of padding, the spartan gloves did not fit as well and failed to offer a premium feel. This got me wondering whether the foam padding is exclusive to the zeus spider gloves or whether they are lacking only in the pegasus.
              So, what's the deal guys? Do other gloves come with padding similar to the zeus spider or not? If yes, then which models?

                  2. Gloves (full gauntlet most probably) - TBG gloves are good if you want in medium range or if you want to go for high range then alpinestars & iicon are there.

                  3. Boots (Thinking about RE ones) - TBG boots are good i think it costs 7.7k.

                      Cramster TRG2 is also good, you can also look for spartan gloves. For boots you can have a look at figo boots at moto madness, I think they stock figo boots.

                        You could check out Orazo boots. They are based out of delhi (Noida) itself. I bought their picus (velcro) product and it costs 4.7 k and have good protection and comfort. don't go for RE, their performance has been bad and I have got info that they might stop their boot line.: www.orazosafety.com

                        For gloves you can check out Zeus Hawk:
