Rider essentials - value without compromise

Thursday, March 26, 2009

Available in men and ladies’ versions, the Acton range is especially suitable for all-weather riding & touring. The jacket (RRP £110) is constructed from 600 denier Polycordura water repellent outer fabric and includes a removable quilted liner, CE-approved Knox protectors on the elbow and shoulder, and sleeve width adjusters. 

The TriTex membrane has been developed to give excellent waterproofing, breathability and windproofing. Enhancing rider protection are reflective logos on the chest and back. 

The matching Acton Jeans (RRP £90) also feature the TriTex membrane, 600 denier Polycordura fabric and CE knee protectors. Two leg lengths are also available (30 Inch or 33 Inch Inseam). Ankle to lower thigh zippers also allow for easy use. 

Finally, the Acton Gloves (RRP £30) offers the complete touring, all weather package.  The TriTex waterproof, windproof and breathable membrane is placed under the Polycordura water repellent outer fabric.  A hard knuckle panel is applied along with non-slip grip palm and finger panels. 

 A draw cord on the hem of the glove allows the wearer to tighten the gloves and prevent water ingress while the wrist restraint can be adjusted for a perfect fit.
