Fantastic new touring jacket from Held. This motorcycle jacket is constructed of a 100% polyester, 500 denier outer shell made of Heros-Tec fabric. It is highly breathable thanks to the Humax-Z-Liner which also offers waterproof and windproof properties. A technical rider would feel comfortable throughout their whole tour in this jacket no matter the weather because the Zorro is waterproof and has both a mesh lining for improved air flow in hotter climates and a removable thermal liner for when it turns colder.


Not just a pretty face. This Held waterproof jacket doesn't just look and feel great, it's got all the technical functionality you expect from a touring jacket. CE certified protectors at the shoulders and elbows as well as a pocket in the back for adding an EN 1621-2 back protector. Reflective sections greatly improve your chances of being seen when the sun has set and the connecting zip reduces the chilly wind that finds its way up your back. The Zorro has a total of eight pockets, four inside, four outside, so you can keep everything you need close to your heart. This really is a motorcycle jacket worth a look.

What we wear: The Held Masuda motorcycle helmet just got better...

I've been wearing the Held Masuda full face motorcycle helmet for a couple of years now, and have been very impressed with it. Held have taken an excellent helmet and made it even better - with the addition of a carbon fibre version to the range.

The carbon fibre not only looks 'lush', but is also strong and light- which means reduced neck fatigue and more comfort. At only £334.99 for the pattern version (£319.99 for plain) it's superb value for what is essentially a 100% Carbon Fibre helmet!

Held Masuda Carbon Fibre Motorcycle helmet - £319.99 for plain and £334.99 for pattern. 

 

Held Masuda Carbon Fibre Motorcycle helmet - rear view

The Official Word:

• Carbon motorcycle helmet ideal for racers & sport riders

• Outlast temperature control lining offers maximum performance

• Double-d ring closure with pinlock ready visor

Race away from the competition in this awesome helmet: Now, it may not have the logos on that you're used to, but give it a chance. This motorcycle helmet is awesome for sport riders and racers. The carbon outer offers a lighter weight, which reduces neck fatigue as stopping and starting often can cause a strain.

Temperature controlled lining for maximum performance: Being too hot or too hold can decrease your performance, especially when it is your head and face that are suffering! An Outlast lining, which is made by NASA, stores heat and releases when you are cold and takes heat and expels it when it is warm. Now, that's clever!

Great features for rider comfort: Air vents allow airflow in summer months and a sun visor stops dazzling. The visor is pinlock ready and can be changed for different coloured visors using a no tools mechanism. A pump system offers the perfect fit and washable removable cheek pads allow you to keep the helmet fresh after a hard day grinding the tarmac.

Outer Shell:

• 100% carbon

Lining:
