Icon 1000 El Bajo Boots Review

Icon 1000 El Bajo BootsThe Icon 1000 El Bajo boots are the half-boot version of the Icon 1000 Elsinore boots. The El Bajo are made of top grain leather in either black or oiled brown.  With classic American sizing, there are no surprises here. A extra level of thought has gone into the Icon 1000 styling with outrageous buckles that can be set to a preferred position, while YKK zippers simultaneously provide easy access. Along with the kick-ass look, this functional boot totes a heavy duty toe and heel cockpit, heat pressed leather for easy shifting and a welt sole.

Schuberth SR1 Technology Helmet Review

Schuberth SR-1 Technology HelmetThe Schuberth SR1 is a super-sport, race inspired helmet and one of the most technologically advanced lids available. The glass fiber carbon compound is compressed in a vacuum at a pressure of 4.5 bar to form a helmet shell that is exceptionally sturdy. The Schuberth SR1 Technology graphic adds a tech flavor to the already aggressive exterior.

Advanced aerodynamics make this helmet stable in the wind, and even at high speeds it creates no upward lift. The chin vents and front chimneys all add to an effective venting system. A unique feature called NRS, which stands for "Noise Reduction System," allows for custom tuning or
regulation of outside sound.

The shield removal is innovative and simple. The SR1 pad system is fully removable and washable, anti-allergenic and antibacterial. Double-coated Coolmax on the interior liners makes it skin-friendly, transports moisture and produces effective ventilation. Complex multi-zone foaming allows for optimal shock absorption and, along with its S.T.R.O.N.G. shell construction, makes this helmet both DOT and ECE approved.
