Cold damp weather has more often than not meant constantly having to layer up to stay warm on cold downhills but then having to shed layers when you have to pedal harder up the hill. Thanks to the Flexair Pro Fire Alpha Trousers that is a thing of the past. Polartec® Alpha® insulation creates the warmth you need for cold-weather mountain biking, with minimal bulk. But it offers adaptable breathability too, letting sweat easily escape as you build up the warmth from riding.

As you'd expect the Flexair Pro are tailored to move with you, keeping you mobile and unrestricted both uphill and downhill. Tapered legs prevent snagging and at the waist the race-ratchet closure allows precise adjustment, even on the fly. When the plunging temperatures of winter hit but you'll still be out mountain biking, you'll be more than happy to pull on the cosily warm Flexair Pro Fire Alpha Trousers.

The shorts also feature an all-over water-repellent finish, keeping you comfortable on a damp and drizzly day of trail riding. Low-profile waist adjusters, inspired by Fox's own goggle straps no-less, prevents slippage and a TruDri™ lined waistband prevents sweat from causing discomfort in this key area.

Mountain biking can be a pricey hobby to get into, but when it comes to keeping your head safer in the event of a tumble, you shouldn't have to compromise, even if you don't have the biggest budget. And this is where the Mainframe Helmet (MIPS) comes into play. Packed with the latest head-protecting tech, it offers superb coverage at an accessible price. Trail-Slaying Safety The construction is of Fox's in-moulded EPS design. This sees a shock-absorbing inner EPS foam covered by a tough polycarbonate outer. Should you crash, always a possibility when tackling technical trails, then the EPS foam soaks up and dissipates the damaging forces of a head impact. The tough outer is there to fend off those smaller knocks and bumps you might get when getting a bit too close to tree branches and trail-side overgrowth. Next comes the MIPS brain protection system, a brilliant bit of technology to feature at this entry-level price point. What is MIPS? The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head. Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions in oblique hits to the head. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head.

With large vents and carefully optimised inner air channels, you'll always have fresh airflow over your head. So whether it's a stiff climb or fast downhill, you remain comfortable and fresh. Inside the Mainframe, the moisture-wicking padding does a great job of preventing you from being soaked in sweat as you pick up speed. And they're washable too, so you can always get that new-helmet feel back. The MIPS integrated fit is the final touch on this impressive MTB helmet. This gives a quick and easy way to get the fit just right. And a secure helmet is a safer helmet too. So twist the dial, get comfortable and go rip up some trails.
Riding during wet weather is a fun challenge. The slippery, muddy and wet trails adding an extra challenge. But you need the right kit to keep riding comfortably.

Using CE Certified D3O® Viper™ across the back and D3O® shoulder inserts, the Baseframe Pro Short Sleeved Body Protector offers incredible levels of mountain-bike ready protection but without the drawbacks of less flexible, heavier systems. The D3O® polymer is remarkably flexible in use, softening with body heat, allowing you to move and position yourself on your bike with ease. The back insert also features flex-grooves to further enhance flexibility. However, in the event of a fall and impact on the ground, the D3O® pads stiffen in order to absorb hits that would otherwise leave you battered and bruised.

Perforations in the pads also ensure easier air circulation and breathability. When you're charging down technical trails, you can be sure you'll enjoy excellent protection should you get your line or landing wrong.
