Thinking of new gear? This may help.....

We know what it's like - you need something new- you're not sure which one to go for- you quite fancy a couple of things - are they any good? 

We also know how important it is to be right when buying biking gear - It's a VIP (Very Important Purchase). So, we could show you all the pretty photos and technical data in the world, but it's the 'real world' that matters - the people who have ridden thousands of miles in our gear, who've skidded on their butts on a racetrack at 100mph, who have remained comfortable wearing it in the Desert at 55 degrees celsius,  people who wear it day in, day out. 

Enough waffle! here's what they say:

•  Got my new Slade race suit yesterday! Wow spot on and fits very well indeed. It will be getting a test this Sunday at Jurby! Tim D

• My Titan gloves saved me whilst sliding down the road on saturday :) Well Held! Scott Smart, racer

• Held Carese jacket, Torno trousers: After 3000 miles and 15 months It’s all good. No, seriously, it’s a stupendous on/off-road suit that has stood up to arid desert, snow-topped mountains and sheet rain with the odd tumble along the way, 5/5 Trevor Franklin MCN

• Kavir desert, Iran. Survived up to 55°C with Held Carese/Torno Igor D

• Gave my Held Slade leathers and Titan gloves the ultimate test at Snetterton BSB. Sliding down the track at 100mph+ you would have thought the leathers were dead and burried!... think again.... scuffs only and not a scratch on me with every seam in perfect condition ready to go again. A******* for Held :) Seb Bulpin, racer, BSB Superstock 1000

• Out of all of the brands that we stock here at Moto Central, i must say that since taking on Held Rider Equipment, no other brand has impressed us as much with the quality and customer appeal.  Fantastic range of gloves, superb 'soft' leather gear and a Gore-Tex range that we feel rivals and succeeds that of 'Rukka' who the market seems to feel is the very best. We stock a lot of fantastic brands, but Held is our personal favourite.  Jamie, Moto Central
  
• Can still type after coming off the Bonneville thanks to Held gloves. Jim W

• My new Held back protector is fantastic! Mike Edwards – racing coach and racer

• Held Slade suit: 10 star review in actuality and fully deserving of every single one! A truly impressive suit! Leigh – ‘Bikechatter’
