GAERNE SG12 Solid Blue Edition boots

The SG12 off-road and motocross boot from Gaerne are not ‘new’, in fact anything but however – we’ve had an original set as part of the ever-rolling kit bag for half a decade now. The new Solid Blue Edition Gaerne’s are literally going to kick those old ones out the door.

The list of features on the SG21 is as impressive as the new, blue colours: a dual stage pivot system attached to the “Razorback” rigid component that creates strong lateral support while a glide-plate keeps the upper boot firm and upright. A second pivot is fixed on a glide that allows the riders foot to move and feel natural on the peg gear shifting or braking. It locks-out and absorbs shock in the case of over-jump or compression.

Other features include the grip guard to hold the bike and provide heat resistance, thermoplastic shin plate, option to open and accommodate a bigger leg or knee-brace, four adjustable alloy buckles, breathable fabric stretchy gaiter, Gaerne’s “Memory Cell Foam” brings interior comfort, a protective heel cup and toe box and cap, an all-new foot-bed moulded to support the foot. There’s a lot going on.

Gaerne have a range of SG12 models including the Enduro version which is only available in black but which has a different, grippier sole.

Baja Designs LED headlight kits

These caught our eyes, we reckon 4900 lumins blasting out the front of a bike would catch anyone’s eyes to be honest. We spotted them as a new part on Beta USA’s site to fit 2020 onwards models but it turns out Baja Designs have a range of headlight options for racing, off-road, dual-sport and adventure.

The Squadron Pro headlight kit pictured “is in a league of its own, producing 4,900 lumens and 40 watts giving you the perfect mix of power and performance.” It is one of a range of options designed to plug directly into existing connectors without the need to upgrade stators.

Options include with or without number board mounting and they also differ in the power output and draw from the bike. The Sport for example produces 3,150 lumens and draws 26 watts while the more powerful Pro version puts out 4900 lumins at 40 watts.

All are waterproof, come with a limited lifetime guarantee and fit a large range of bikes.

Cost: from $200 depending on type
