Budget Trail Riding Gear

Those are rad and R800 on sale is a bargain.

 

I'd hate to know what bike gear is going to cost once the R17/$ stock starts hitting shelves.. eek

 

No need to wonder, check out the links I posted...

I see it doesnt have a zip pocket(I think). How's the main pocket for storing a large phone?

Nope, no zip pockets but it’s a damned nice shirt. It should fit a large phone, but my pockets the last place I put one while ridding.

On the *completely* different end of the scale, Spez's 2021 kit has just dropped locally.

 

The effects of our weak ZAR (not that it's only that, I know) are now well and truly hitting us with all the new stuff reaching our shores.

I love Spaz riding gear but there is no chance in hell I would spend that on shorts. Even if I was filthy rich.

I think it includes a free budget hooker

What's a large phone?

I haven't got that exact pair but I have tried them on and they have a winner fit. The Fox shorts I have fit my Note 4 when I had it just fine. Zips on pockets is nice peace of mind but through all the years of riding I've never lost keys or a phone out of a pocket without zips.

To the guys talking about the fox ranger shorts. Do they fit true to size or did you have to go a size up or down? Compared to your usual pants size?

Especially in our old age.

I have a pair of normal jeans and tried to climb into the ceiling the other day while wearing them... Yeah nah... 

 

I put them out to pasture

Yoh... Stretch denim is life changing.

 

Ha ha. I find it rubs my thighs the wrong way somehow. 

 

But I do agree that they're a lot more forgiving.

I also find Fox sizing spot on, I wear the same in Fox that I wear in jeans and any other shorts.
