Best Adventure Bike Gear – The guide from KNOX

Best Adventure Bike Gear – The guide from KNOX Riding the latest Adventure bikes as they are designed to be ridden presents riders with endless Adventure riding possibilities. However, that same on road to off road capability also presents riders a challenging task of choosing the right gear. Therefore, we’ve put together our guide to the best Adventure Bike riding gear designed comfortable, dry and protected during all aspects of your Adventure! As part of putting this guide together, we tackled some of the tougher trails here in the Lake District that we are often found riding on and brought the latest KTM 1290 Super Adventure S with us and what a machine it is! We were also riding our Husqvarna 701 Enduro (more a dual sport but definitely adventure capable) and our Yamaha WR250f (for the rougher stuff!). The Adventure gear selection we’ve put together works perfectly on all of these bikes and works seamlessly from fast road pace, to tackling the trails at low speed. Upper Body Protection. As the foundation of our top and bottom half, we wear Dual active base layers, these provide huge levels of comfort and breathability, enabling moisture transfer and always keep you within the right operating temperatures. The Dual Active fabric is finished with HYDROCOOL® and SILVERPLUS® for enhanced wicking, drying and anti-bacterial properties meaning moisture management and odour resistance are achieved. The Knox protective layers will, of course, work without a Base Layer, but the Dual Active Base Layers provide the right foundation and in practice, they make a huge difference in performance and comfort. Next, we have the Urbane Pro mk2 or Urbane Pro MK2 Utility Shirt. This is all new for 2021 and is now certified to CE level AA, a class normally reserved for heavier textiles. Impact protection is achieved with our class leading smart and innovative Micro-lock level 1 elbow and shoulder armour, and level 2 back protector.. All-new materials are used for 2021 certified to CE standard EN17092. Knox exclusive materials allow us to achieve game changing levels of abrasion resistance whilst maintaining a light, comfortable garment. The Urbane Pro MK2 allows you to ride pretty much anything you want, anywhere! During our shoot with the KTM 1290 Super Adventure S, we layered up using our Quilted Jacket and Welbeck waterproof jacket for the long (and fairly chilly!) commute to the Lake District trails we had planned. Once we arrived at the trails, we simply removed the outer layers, rolled them up and packed them away so we were just wearing the Urbane Pro MK2. #nojacketrequired. Lower Body Protection. Brand new for 2021 are the Knox Urbane Pro trousers. Providing all the features from the Urbane Pro MK2 shirt but constructed into a trouser. The Urbane Pro trouser offers the same great level of protection – CE Level AA. This product offers massive amounts of ventilation whilst riding, this is achieved with the integrated mesh panels discreetly positioned front and back, these panels prove very effective especially when riding in the stand-up position. The Trousers also feature deep pockets on the front and back and a discreet, smart zipped side pocket for storage of items that could otherwise tend to fall out of standard back pocket. The Urbane Pro trousers share the same Knox exclusive materials used in the Urbane Pro Mk2shirt, this means the same great level of comfort, breathability as well as impact and abrasion resistance. Finally, we move to the hand armour, new for this year is our Urbane Pro Glove, this lightweight, short cuff summer riding glove offers off road feel with on road protection – CE approved to EN13594. Our new glove is constructed using a highly breathable, abrasion resistant mix of textile and leather fabrics with no compromise in performance. So there we have it, the best riding gear for Adventure bikes from Knox Armour! If you have any questions regarding any of the kit don’t hesitate to get in touch or leave a comment below.
