Staff Picks - Tim's Motorcycle Gear

Ok it's my turn. Here is my 'current' bike and 'current' riding gear. Ask me in 6 months and I'm sure I'll have something brand spanking new for both but what can I say, I'm fickle.

You guys should capitalise this format and make it a regular feature, after the Christmas gift one and now this, great banter and very entertaining. You could do maybe a staff wish list or just sit around talking about new products.

[@UrbanRiderlondon]

Hi Mark, More staff picks coming soon!

[@Fee.1]

They only have so many staff members and no disrespect intended but the previous one was kinda meh

[@MarkMcVann]

@@Fee.1 I meant Andrew and Tim sitting around talking about products unscripted they have a great chemistry, hence why I mentioned the Christmas gift vid

[@5tevieb954]

@@MarkMcVannI like the idea mate

[@Fee.1]

@@MarkMcVann ah well that I agree with, I’m down with that, and agree it doesn’t need to be about one persons kit at work. In fact maybe they could start taking this to the public

[@shookones2216]

Great review guys, I was back in London England in May of 2022. Had the pleasure of going to an Urban Rider store and trying some gear on that we don't get here in Canada. I'm curious to what size Tim wears for the Merlin Jacket as I'm wanting to get a new summer jacket this year. I typically wear a large for my Revit Jacket. Cheers.

[@mrbjay5443]

That yellow Ducati bike is just beautiful..DETAILS to it, just so gorgeous!

[@a13bkd62]

I feel this style of use-case presentation is really helpful when making one's own motorcycle related decisions and the style is easy to listen to which is a great bonus. You'll never please all the folk or produce an episode that doesn't leave somebody feeling 'nope' but for me, keep these going. The only problem I see is you will run out of staff/colleagues! You'll need to tap up your wider contact base I guess or your customers. Good luck, cheers Brady

[@UrbanRiderlondon]

Glad it was helpful!

[@paulscr]

Love this series. Great selection - Thankfully own some of this gear already :)

[@UrbanRiderlondon]

Great to hear!

[@samsonman2000]

This was great guys 👍🏼

[@5tevieb954]

Brilliant video. You guys are really good at this type of content. You should interview Freddie Dobbs he wears all this kind of stuff and has like 75k subs.

[@mrbjay5443]

Lovely bike. i love the color!

[@timsayer1519]

I ordered the Merlin Drifter ready for the summer after seeing this. Seems like a great jacket and the usual Merlin quality. The elbow armour seems really low down the arms though. Would be good to know if Tim or any other owners thought the same?

[@Fee.1]

Thanks, it’s the video we’ve all been waiting for.

[@tgmwright]

No sun visor on that arai due to compromise of the shell structure. Same reason the visor attachment points stick out the sides. Same reason the brow vents start inside the visor.

[@jasonoconnor9446]

With the Arai helmet they have the pro visor now which gives you both clear and tinted in one package ;)

[@bikegeist]

I like my Rapide Neo, but it feels so huge on my bonce. I also find it lets in a lot of air through the bottom of the visor after putting in a pinlock. Obviously something I messed up, but it is very annoying and I'm not sure how to fix it. Beeline Moto is great, too.

[@nickfifield1]

Heated gear! 😀 great vid as always!

[@UrbanRiderlondon]

Thanks 👍

[@Dylzhaar]

I think I have too much motorcycle gear. That being said, I'm waiting on a pair of John Doe Dylan Mono jeans that I ordered from you at the start of the week. Very excited for those 😁

[@UrbanRiderlondon]

What a great choice with the John Doe jeans, hopefully you will like them as much as we do! :) - Iza

[@sgtace]

africa twin! awesome bike, I got rebel in dct, that engine is super sweet

[@user-sw2lv3zp6o]

Great bike, Tim. That's a good top box. Is the AT the L model? I'd have got the Shoei X-Zero. I hate goggles. The Fuel Sargeant 2 kecks look better. Pando Moto pants: look good. Those Stylmartin boots would be great in GB in winter. I hate backpacks. My favourite kit video series by a mile.

[@d.Cog420]

Surprising choice of bike. Did you look at the Ducati Desert X for example?

[@rockyescape8989]

I love how Tim said he finally bought a dad bike.

[@sunday9492]

Enjoying this

[@claudionavarra4310]

I've never heard of beeline but it sounds great. finally a navigator that doesn't cost too much.

[@UrbanRiderlondon]

It really is!

[@rhysowen9566]

The scrambler style kit is way too costumey for me. Interested to hear what you guys wear outside of work when you're riding to meet mates for a coffee or a beer - are you wearing this kit in that sort of situation or is it mostly just a commute to work at a motorcycle accessories store type setup?

[@dannyjonze]

nice rundown of gear, you are making me spend too much. A thought about wearing a backpack, although i dont like them as such, i do wear one most of the time because I'm sick of being out and not being able to buy what i need. I have a few times kept a level 2 d30 back protector in the computer pocket at the back. It could help if i came off with a can of beans in the back. Also for those longer trips it's an additional safety. My prediction is that Tim will stray to a Klim Marrakesh, he wont be able to help himself.

[@JosephActivate]

Everyone from Urban Rider has the best taste in gear

[@Fee.1]

PSA: intercoms with Mesh are indeed a necessity, but beware that each manufacturers mesh implementation is proprietary (unnecessarily I might add) so if you have a Sena and all your friends have a Cardo your mesh is useless and you have to fall back to connecting via old school Bluetooth direct connection

[@TheOnceAndFutureDoug]

It'd be really nice if every company used the same mesh standard so I didn't have to care that my friends have Sena or Cardo or whatever else, I could just buy on who made the best tech.

[@cloud9847]

I haven't seen anyone go with Lee Parks Sumo gloves. Is there a reason for this?

[@Fee.1]

Tim, have you ever tried Lee Parks gloves? They’re crazy simple and you can choose from the seam being on the inside of the glove or the outside. Minimal pieces of material & of stitching to increase strength. And best of all they use Deer and elk skin so super strong while being even thinner than cow, and super supple. Made in the USA. The outseam sewn models might not be as pretty but it feels so good to not have to touch a seem

[@loki1066]

What sort of teeth whitener are you using? They're almost BLUE!

[@bikingbaker]

What Jacket/shirt is Tim wearing at at 4:12?

[@user-hf8ie8mf3n]

“There are some who call me….Tim?” 👍🤪🇨🇦

[@villafixie5332]

hola me gustaria saber cuanto mides para encontrar mi talla perfecta

[@Fee.1]

15:14 mine is hardly ever in my trousers but I have the luxury of living alone.

[@hulkhatepunybanner]

*Is there an helmet intercom system that can amplify listening to and talking to people who are trying to communicate with you whilst wearing your helmet?* And optionally let you modulate your voice to sound like Darth Vader or My Little Pony?

[@Timmicillo]

What size is your Belstaff Brooklands?

[@bobklee2397]

Were those Rev’It gloves female fit ?

[@senna4281]

Hi lads I will soon be getting my first motorcycle just about to hit 60 in April and need some advice on what gear I should buy. After the price of getting my license and the probable cost of my motorcycle second hand Honda nc 750 DCT that will all be on finances as have very little saving. Anyway back to my enquiry lads could recommend me good but cheap clothing, helmet, gloves, boots for warn uk ridding only no winter ridding at my age..

[@UrbanRiderlondon]

Hi Senna, I believe that our Customer Service was able to help on this matter via Email :) - Iza

[@AlexOnABoat]

Tim bought a dad bike, are we allowed to laugh and point?

[@user-yz9dr3gs9p]

i am flabbergasted non of the urban rider staff have rukka all the stuff is manly summer clothing not all year weather rider clothing

[@erinsalarun1090]

Maybe you don't have any female staff but might be am idea to go a ladies clothing specific video. Your best picks or something!!!

Hi Erin, it's all in the works! Please bear with us :) - Iza
