The basics remain the same with a 600-denier outer shell including ballistic fabric overlays in key areas, CE-approved shoulder and elbow armour, a CE back protector and provision for an optional chest protector. The changes are fixed sleeves rather than the detachable ones on the older version, colour- coded zips for the waterproof membrane and thermal liner, and two additional waterproof pockets. ■ www.tri-motive.com This AGV communications system is designed to fit easily and discretely into a range of the Italian firm’s helmets, including the popular new K3-SV model. The unit’s battery and processor slot into the place of two panels which are removed from the inside of the chinbar and speakers go into recesses in the polystyrene liner. That only leaves a slimline control panel on the outside of the shell to let the rider adjust volume, switch between phone, sat-nav, a built-in FM radio or rider-to-pillion comms. ■ www.agv.co.uk Colours: Black, black/green, white/black, white/red Sizes: XS-XXXL Dutch company Rev’It is taking a serious stance with its new Jerez Pro race gloves, which are based on its existing Jerez gloves. They’re made from a combination of kangaroo leather, cowhide, and mesh materials for airflow. And the protection on the back of the hand sits on a panel that flexes separately from the rest of the glove, boosting flexibility. There’s also impact protection on the cuff, which often takes a hard whack in a spill, and the stitching on the palm area is all external so the seams don’t disturb the comfort. ■ www.revit.eu Avon released the Storm 3D X-M last year as a long-lasting sports-touring tyre and now it has added a range of new fitments to suit adventure touring machines and hypersports bikes. The tyres boast sipes and a high silica content for improved wet weather performance, and Avon claims an extra 15-20% mileage over the hard- wearing Storm 3D tyres on which the X-M is based. The X-M was originally limited to 120/70 x 17 fronts and either a 180/55 x 17 or 190/50 x 17 rears, but now these additional sizes are available: 110/70ZR17, 110/80ZR18, 110/80R19, 120/60ZR17, 150/70ZR17, 150/80ZR16, 160/60ZR17, 160/60ZR18, 160/70R17, 170/60ZR17, 190/55ZR17, 200/50ZR17. ■ www.avonmotorcycle.com Avon Storm 3D X-M, from £210 Made from a mix of kangaroo leather, cowhide and vent- ed panels, Jerez Pro are protective and comfortable Slimline and discrete, this comms unit works with a range of AGV helmets
