Gnu Carbon High Beam MTX

Advantages: Comfortable & Durable
Disadvantages: None

...I have been wearing Mountain Horse boots for years now including the ever popular 'Cheetah' boot. I have always ridden in a pair of long leather boots and normally the zips have either gone on them or the stitching which is quite frankly damn annoying! When I bought another horse about 2 years ago I decided to treat myself to a new pair of long leather boots but something which is a bit more durable and hardwearing. I dont know why I never thought of Mountain Horse before! It might be because alot of their boots are quite chunky. Anyway Mountain Horse hadnt had the Sportive High Rider out for long and I had a look and went into my local saddlers to try them to see what they were like, I was smitten. They were so comortable and fitted really well, I have slim legs and normally I get a gap at the back of the boot but not with these... Read review

Advantages: Very bright light, long battery life, waterproof, easily detactable
Disadvantages: Only 1 setting - on or off, no function to flash

...This is an amazing light! It may be more expensive than most but there is a reason for that. It is one of the brightest lights you can buy which doesn't run on rechargeable power packs. It uses standard AA batteries. It fixes easily to the handlebar of your bike and the light itself can be quickly put on or off if you leave it parked up.

It's so bright, that often oncoming cars flash their headlights, thinking I am a motorbike with my headlights on! It is also fully waterproof... Read review

Advantages: probably one of the best boards on the market
Disadvantages: Won't except anything less than full throttle

...Shape: Directional Multi-Beam Design – This shape allows you to carve it up but won’t let you down in the park. Sidecut: Bi-Radial – The side cut of a board refers to the curve of the ‘waist’ of the board. If you were to create a full circle out of the curve then this is the sidecut expressed as the radius of this circle. The timeless is bi-radial meaning two different sized circles go to make up the side cut. So when you go into a turn its nice and smooth but when you leave it the tighter radius gives you and extra kick! Construction Features: 37° Misty 2+ Con – Cap: This refers to the way the board is made. Ride boards tend to have the pieces which are non-critical to performance cut out to make the boards lighter and this gives them a characteristic look. The 37° angle refers to the way should be ridden, right up on its... Read review
