RiDE best buy rain suit

Yes, rain. Unfortunately something we have to deal with!

Here's a great all in one rain suit that's won a 'Best Buy' award from RiDE magazine. We've got it at £37.99- a small price to pay for keeping dry!

BLH BERING Eco Light Motorcycle Rain Suit

First class motorbike rain suit
• Totally waterproof
• Easy to get into
• RiDE Magazine Best Buy recommendation

"Well-priced and effective: The features of a top-end rain suit at a rock bottom price!" RiDE Magazine's verdict: Best Buy! If staying dry should not cost a bucket, the BLH / Bering suit is the answer!

BLH and Bering are brands of the French motorcycle clothing manufacturer BERING. The BLH Light and the BERING Eco suit are identical; Supply tends to be tight and depending on availability the suit may bear either logo on delivery to you.

Note: Buy one size larger than your regular motorcycle clothing size.

The Techy Stuff:

Waterproof 100% polyamide nylon
Reflective panels
Quick change opening
Elasticated waist
Adjustments on cuffs and ankles

Held Arctic Winter Gloves

 Waterproofness, protection and winter rating:

Gore-Tex winter gloves to beat wind-chill & rain

• Waterproof guarantee for the life of the gloves
• Highly breathable for warmer hands
• Extra Thinsulate layers to protect from wind-chill
• Superfabric palm panels & leather covered knuckle armour
• In-built rain wiper

For years HELD have produced the last word in winter gloves and won comparative test after comparative test. The HELD Arctic gloves are designed to stay on top of Mr. Frost: You get superior 180gms Thinsulate on the back of the hand to fight wind-chill, and remarkably the gloves retain the dexterity of far less warm gloves due to their construction. Safety is not at the margins either with Superfabric highly abrasion resistant palm panels and leather covered knuckle armour. If you get cold hands, these are simply: superb!

Winter Rating:
Warmth: 60 mins+ at 0C degrees/50mph
Protection: 5 out of 5 stars
Durability: 5 out of 5 stars
Below zero degrees C, you are likely to need undergloves, muffs or heated grips as well.
