Complete guide to motocross gear: Get ready for off-road adventure
Motocross is an exciting discipline that requires not only exceptional riding skills, but also the right equipment to ensure safety and optimum performance. In this guide, we will explore the essential equipment needed to successfully tackle off-road tracks.
Motocross helmet
The helmet is the most critical piece of motocross equipment. Make sure you choose a motocross specific helmet that has solid protection, an adjustable visor and an effective ventilation system. Investing in a quality helmet is crucial to ensure your safety.
Motocross goggles
Goggles are essential to protect your eyes from dirt, dust and mud splashes while riding. Look for goggles with good ventilation and an adjustable strap for a secure fit.
Motocross suit
Motocross suits are designed to offer complete protection. Opt for a durable suit, made of anti-abrasive materials, and make sure it offers good ventilation. The suit should be close-fitting to the body to prevent snagging on parts of the bike while riding.
Motocross gloves
Motocross gloves protect your hands from impacts, debris and abrasions. Choose gloves that are sturdy but allow a good feel for precise riding. Make sure they are ventilated to avoid overheating.
Motocross/enduro boots
Motocross boots provide crucial support for the ankles and protect the feet from impact and debris. Opt for boots that offer a combination of strength and flexibility, allowing a full range of movement while riding.
XC PROTECTIONS
Back
The bib and brace offers protection for the chest and back. Look for lightweight but sturdy models with adjustment systems for customised support. Some bibs also include shoulder and elbow protectors.
Knee and shin guards
Knee and shin guards are essential to protect joints during falls. Make sure they are adjustable and fit comfortably over or under the suit.
Water bag
A water bladder integrated into the suit or carried as a backpack is handy for staying hydrated during long riding sessions. Staying hydrated is essential to keep energy levels up.
Additional protective equipment
Consider the use of additional protectors such as bumpers, back protectors and armbands to provide additional safety in the event of a fall.
Equipment maintenance
Regularly check your equipment to ensure that it is in good condition. Replace any damaged components and keep your equipment clean and functional.
By following this guide and choosing your equipment carefully, you will be ready to dominate the track with confidence and style. Enjoy the ride!
