Knox have been busy improvingbtheir already pretty good Seasonless Collection. This rugged looking chap (not one of our staff) is demonstrating their latest Walker 2 overtrousers. They're light, they fold up small, they're sensibly priced and if you want to know whether they keep you dry...read the article! BMW's latest incarnation of their firebreathing S1000RR appears at first glance to be just a paper exercise - add a bit here, tweak a bit there - but the truth is rather more interesting. I might even go as far as to say that history is being made right here... Knox will be well known to regular readers as purveyors of funky armoured gloves and useful bags. Less well known, perhaps, for fashion items like jeans. Don't panic - Knox Rydal jeans are fashionable, yes, but they're armoured as well. A tricky combination, perhaps. Have they managed? Read on and see...

Seats.Pretty much every bike has one, and pretty much everyone ignores it.

Tyres. Round, black (usually) and really difficult to photograph without studio facilities. They're also incredibly important for us bikers as the single most critical component in the whole "staying out of hospital" equation. Pirelli's Diablo Supercorsa Pro SP will go some way toeard helping you there...

Knox Handroid gloves have been around for a long time Over ten years, in fact. And their latest incarnation are the best yet, for all sorts of reasons which you'll have to read the article to learn. But - spoiler alert - they may just be my favourite gloves of all time...

The future, ladies and gentlemen, may well look something like this. It's not completely alien, but it's definitely different. And it's called the BMW CE04. It looks like a radical modern scooter, goes surprisingly well...and sounds like a milk float. Read on to see why...

Luggage is something we've touched on here a few times because it's been a problem since...well since bikes have existed. Knox have an interesting take on this problem with their Trekker rucksack, and it's really rather good. Obviously you'll need to read the article to see why...

 

 

 

Sensible twin cylinder BMWs have been a familiar site on these roads for longer than most of us can remember. Here's another - the R NineT Pure - which is actually not sensible at all. We got our hands on one for a while and the conclusion was surprising.

Turtles have hard shells, live ages and are spectacularly cool. This eTurtle has a hard shell, some really cool electronics and will help you live a lot longer. It's a development of the original Turtle we tested a while ago, and it's different. Have a read to find out more...

KLIM is one of the most successful companies in the motorcycle industry of whom you have probably never heard. The Hardanger suit is a prime example. Over the last ten months and several thousand miles we've oput those claims to the test. Well most of them, anyway...
