Very well designed. Light, super protective, fits perfectly, I'm 6'0 185lbs got the L/XL. It has nice fasteners for a perfect fit.
It's a micro mesh liner and is a sturdy material. I read in reviews the Fox brand at a similar price point was a cheaper mesh and ripped easy so I went with this one and I'm happy so far.
Using currently for skiing as Extra protection for a separated shoulder. Under my ski coat it's barley noticeable and very comfortable. Much like normal armored bike jacket.
It just works and works great. Very well thought out. If this was also marketed for the Ski and Snowboard industry at this great price, they'd make a killing.
REVZILLA simply rocks. It came in like two days to California. Fantastic business I recommend to all my friends, the only place to shop for great GEAR. Keep it up! :)
Yes, I recommend this product.

The AGV Leguna was the other glove in contention for my price/quality choice. I went with the Cortech at $20 less.
These gloves are simply amazing. What makes them shine most is the price to quality ratio. They offer top notch craftsmanship, protection and style.
The leather is soft yet durable the protection is all you would possibly need for duel sport riding. They are a bit Darth Vaderish looking but not too bad.
I got them for $60 with my revzilla cash back. REVZILLA delivered them in 2 days!! You guys rock!!!
They truely feel like a $200 glove.
I got an XL, the sizing chart was spot on. I have long fingers and was worried but they are perfect.
They fit very comfortably over my BMW Rallye Pro 3 jacket sleeve. (I wish Revzilla sold BMW GEAR :)
I've not tried them under the sleeve, but I don't think that would be a problem.
def reccomend them.
Yes, I recommend this product.

AGV AX-8 DS EVO Helmet Brand new for fall 2011, the AGV AX-8 DS EVO Helmet takes one of the most high-end and lightweight dualsport helmets on the market (AX-8 DS) and makes some significant upgrades. The design and the line inevitably recall the AX-8 Model from which it is derived, but additional technical features like the visor and the specific visor mechanism, the chin air vent that can be opened, and the open-able supplementary ventilation on the top guarantee all the performance and comfort of a road model. New internal padding with increased thickness for improved comfort and greater stability in professional use. New shape of the outer shell in the chin area which, combined with a wider and softer base edge compared to the previous model, reduces interference with any back protector used and decreases risks of impact traumas, thanks to its shock-absorber function. Features SSL (Super Super Light) carbon, Kevlar and fiberglass shell construction IVS (Integrated Ventilation System) funnels air though channels in the outer shell New flat dual face shield in non-scratch, antifog polycarbonate Dry-Lex internal padding with sanitized treatment Removable and washable cheekpads and internal lining Outer aluminum peak screws 3 shell sizes DOT and ECE 22.05 Certified

I wanted the best duel sport helmet at the best price. I narrowed it down to the Arai xd-4, Shoei Hornet and the AGV AX-8 EVO. I was lucky enough to try on all 3 helmets. Each of the helmets were very similar in construction. I did not feel any brand was more safe then the other. They all felt top notch for either highway or off road riding.
In terms of fit:
I have a long narrow face and the Shoei felt a bit loose and the style compared to the others was very plain looking. The Arai fit like a glove as did the AGV. I wear a size M.
When it came down to buying I chose the AGV.
I felt at $530 Aria is essentially charging a $130 premium for the helmets notoriety.
I also bought the dark shield for $69. $470 for both IMHO was a great purchase.
The helmet has great visibility with zero distortion. Goggles fit beautifully with shield up or down. The visor screws off easily if you want to ride long distances at high speed. Helmet is also very light. Interior padding is great and the craftsmanship is stellar. I believe AGV is owned by Dianese.
All in all, very pleased!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Dainese's new 2012 collection is coming in so this one went down $100 to $450 Great buy!! Fast delivery.
Great looking jacket.
(I got the black/grey. The grey is darker looking then the photo shows, looks even better in person!)
Very durable. Tailored for an athletic build.
I'm 6'1 175lbs and size 52 fit me like a glove.
Only downside is the back protection (g2 wave) is not included and runs high at $89.
Love it!!!

 REV'IT! Cayenne Pro Pants
REV'IT! Cayenne Pro Pants
REV'IT! Cayenne Pro Pants When REV'IT introduced the new Cayenne Pro Jacket , they were tasked with developing an equally strong pair of pants the CAYENNE PRO pants. All of the product improvements incorporated in the jacket, such as weight reduction, improved insulation properties and stitch reducing laminated reflection and Super fabric panels have also been incorporated in the new CAYENNE PRO textile pants. These pants can be zipped to the jacket by a short or an all around 360 degree connection zipper. For the serious commuter or adventure / touring rider, this is the pair of pants that will fulfill your needs . Available in standard, long and short leg lengths, the Cayenne Pro Pants will zip with any current model men's REV'IT Jacket. While made to work specifically with the Cayenne Pro Jacket, the Cayenne Pro Pants also function very well when paired with the REV'IT Sand Jacket or REV'IT Dragon Jacket. PROTECTION FEATURES Outershell DuPont Cordura 500D, DuPont Cordura1000D, SuperFabric Insulation detachable Exkin lining Protection SAS TEC CE protection, Temperfoam hippadding, double textile seat Waterproofing detachable REVIT! Hydratex 3-layer membrane Breathability detachable REVIT! Hydratex 3-layer membrane Visibility laminated reflective panels ERGONOMIC FEATURES Fit pre-shaped close fit Adjustability adjustable waist, stretch panels at the knee and back Ventilation ventilation zippers on the upper leg Features short and long connection zipper Pockets 2 slit pockets A commonly asked question we get is what is the difference between the Cayenne Pro Pants and the Sand Pants Both are high-end 4-season pants, but the difference is in the materials used. The Cayenne Pro's use an Exkin thermal liner, shown to have half the weight / thickness of the Dupont liner in the Sand Pants. The Cayenne Pro's use SAS-TEC armor, and the Sand uses Pro-Life and while both are CE level 2, the SAS-TEC armor is softer (only turning hard on impact) and more comfortable. The last major difference is the use of SuperFabric on the impact areas in the Cayenne Pro.
 

Mix and match?

Can you use the REV'IT! Cayenne Pro Pants with the Dainese System D-dry jacket together In terms of the jacket / pant zipper fastening?
Thanks

Size

Hello!
I have a 190 cm height and 120 kg weight.
What is the size of this protection is right for me?
I weigh 185lbs and am 6'0 and the L/XL fits perfect and I have thin arms. It might fit someone 200lbs with slim to thick arms but IMO no bigger than that.

In my opinion if my kg math is right, you definitely need the 2xl/3xl if you weigh 265lbs.

This is listed under "Street Gear". Is this Street Armor or Motocross?

It says CE rated but does not distinguish between street or dirt. IMHO it can be used either way.

How hard is it to change the visor?

This helmet looks really great but I am concerned with my ability to change the visor during a ride. Do you need a screw driver just to change the visor? Is it something that could be done on the side of the road? Being able to change from a tinted visor to a clear one at night is crucial for me. Thanks.
Takes 5 min. Just a few screws.

Just bought the helmet. Where can i get a dark visor for it?

Revzilla carries it. It's the version from the previous helmet version but fits the new evo. I have it and it's super cool.

Dainese D-System D-Dry Jacket - sizing question

Chest size = 40 in.
Sleeve length = 24 in.
Weight = 160 lbs.
Height = 5'11"
I'm looking at either a size 50 or 52......not sure which would be the better fit.
Do these jackets tend to run true to size?
Thanks.
I had a size 52. (I returned it and went with a BMW RALLEY PRO 3)

I am 6'0 175lbs it fit like a glove. Seems a 50 would do you perfectly.

Hi-Viz Option

Why is this jacket not offered in Hi-Viz and will it ever be.
Just my 2 cents:
I bought this jacket in black and grey. And it is awesome.

The sleeves have two reflective stripes which create a very shiny beacon.

Research has proven that jacket color is not really a factor in reducing accidents. The helmet color is the main difference. It should be white first than hi viz yellow. Look at what cops wear, white helmets and dark uniform with reflective stripes.
