Elite riders need elite gear and sponsored freestyle motocross rider Alan Dixon is no exception. Today, we’re looking over some of his setup!
Fly Formula Carbon Helmet
Coming with a 12K carbon fiber shell and a bendable nylon visor, the Fly Formula Carbon weighs in at just 3 lbs. The helmet also comes with true functional ventilation, making it more comfortable and aerodynamic.
While designing the Formula Carbon, Fly focused on total brain protection. Finding the best ways to prevent rider concussions, the company gave the helmet conehead EPS technology to manage impact absorption. The Formula Carbon also features RHEON Energy Cells to better manage low-speed impact.
Both the solid and prime models for the helmet sell at $699.95 and come in sizes ranging from XS to XXL.
Fly Lite Gear
Gear that’s known for feeling weightless, Fly has provided its Lite gear with multiple features to set it apart from the competition. The first thing riders will notice is the Boa system on the pants.
Rather than using a Zip-Tie system found on most riding pants, Fly’s Lite gear uses a Boa to help find the best fit. A device that can be operated with gloves on, wearers can twist the Boa to tighten and pop it up to loosen.
Fly also gave the jersey zero-cuffs and multiple spots for ventilation to make the jersey as light and breathable as possible.
With the jersey coming in at $49.95 and the pants priced at $179.95 (right now $107.97), riders can Lite gear on both youngpowersports.com and at one of our locations.
Alpinestars’ Tech 7 Boots
One of the most famous pairs of boots on the market, Alpinestars’ Tech 7’s are comfortable, durable and protective.
The boot’s light chassis provides mobility on shifts and rear brakes. Alpinestars also gave the Tech 7’s instep and achilles accordion flex zones to add comfort and support. Inside, a blade system helps protect riders from hyperextension while enhancing flexibility.
As for the upper construction, the boot is reinforced with polyurethane to add to the Tech 7’s water resistance capabilities. The aluminum buckles provide memory settings and quick release to make the boots easy to get on and off.
