Tested by: John Milbank¦From £349.99¦www.nevis.uk.com¦01425 478936 Flip-front lids are the choice of many touring riders as they offer the protection of a full-face, with the option to completely open the front if necessary.

Tested by: Steve Rose¦£149¦www.spadaclothing.co.uk¦01384 413841 I like this jacket.

The Lati2ude comes with soft, (which means comfortable) but effective CE armour and a back protector too. There’s also a removable…

Tested by: John Milbank¦£19.99 to £34.99¦www.oxfordproducts.com¦01993 862300 I store my bikes in the garage, but I also use that same space for metal and wood-work. Even welding. While no cover will protect against molten steel, the dusty environment of my workshop isn’t the best place for my bikes’ paint. That, and the fact that I’ve…
