Visiting Auckland briefly in a few weeks and will be looking for some replacement riding gear for myself & hubby - cordura jacket, boots, gloves and maybe even jeans.

Will visit the Motomail store, but wondering if there is anywhere else in Auck that has a really good range of gear, especially womens?

I've looked at the wiki list but I don't get an obvious idea of who has the biggest range apart from Motomail. Wont have time to visit them all unfortunately.

Cheers :sunny:

Cycletreads. Plus along that road is two other bike shops. Definitely worth a look.

If you could only visit one, for gear go to cycletreads.

Colemans Suzuki and Red Baron are fairly close together.

Lifestyle Imports in Pukekawa (Tuakau area) are great for gear at good prices. Unfortunately they don't have a lot of womens gear in cordra. Rick is great to deal with. Just give him a ring to arrange a time to meet with him.

+1 for Cycletreads for womens gear. Cheaper than Motomail.

hee hee, ample fit! You & me both chic
I have Ixon jacket & pants, great fit & great product. (I am a bit biased, I used to work for the Ixon importer)
They do a whole range of "ample fit" gear for the girls.
Good luck
