ROAD PRODUCTS THE WEREWOLF HAS IT No rider in their right mind wants to be invisible at night, but most high-vis clothing looks uncool during the day. Premium Dutch motorcycle clothing brand, Macna, has the answer. Its unique Night Eye panels on the Equator jacket look regular grey by day, but light up like big traffic signs after dark, when headlights hit them. Designed for long-distance trips, featuring removable thermo and Raintex waterproof lining, it also boasts CE protection, and the fit and finish you expect from a European brand. Distributor: Forbes & Davies Sizes: Men’s and Ladies available Price: From $619 Info: www.forbesanddavies.co.nz TACKLE THE TUNDRA YEAR ROUND Winter may be drawing to a close but it’s still frigging chilly on a bike. Time to try out the Macna Tundra 2 winter glove? Made of 500 Poly textile, it employs premium goat leather on the palm and knuckle. There’s a Raintex waterproof lining, Bemberg thermal lining, temper-foam knuckle protection, EVA palm and knuckle, and a 30-degree buckle. If you’re looking at upgrading your touring gloves, these babies are seriously worth a look.
