1Tonne gear

[ducatilover]

Just to make you happy, Qmoto wouldnt have told you to fuck off, I would have tho, only on the basis that youre a tosser lol
Seriously tho for the record the zips where YKK most definately, I did a bit of testing work with YKK NZ who confirmed it, the testing was Steel vs Plastic zips, Plastic was 60% stronger for your interest.



there ya go, get stuck in losers

The zips are aluminium, the teeth are plastic, the aluminium is similar to Camembert.
You have a reputation with abusing customers.

crashes well,

So just to clear this up....you bought some gear....crashed with it on....and expect it to hold together as well as some other gear you haven't crashed in that you're comparing it to? That doesn't seem like a very fair comparison.

I got their Storm winter gloves recently and they are great value. Real warm and comfy and sturdy looking.

Has anyone bought their Terminator leather jacket? Would be keen to hear some feedback particularly on warmth factor. I have never expected leather to be waterproof but it should keep out the cold and wind.

A have that jacket, however I use it as a summer commuting jacket as it has a decent venting system. The leather itself is not waterproof but there is waterproof lining on the inside so that even when the leather is soaked you are still dry. I have found it to be of a very good quality and very functional to boot. Very happy with it, it has certainly exceeded my expectations. Will most certainly go back to 1tonne.

After the zips came apart, probably should have clarified.

Ahh sweet. You had some pretty high expectations otherwise

Would be grouse to have gear that didn't fall apart when you fly down the road. My zips I installed worked well though and still do

Installing sounds much better than sewing.

I had a pair of 1Tonne Blizzard winter gloves, unfortunately the stitching started to come apart at 4 or 5 points on the glove after around 3 months of use.

We have had an issue with the Blizzard gloves and we are debating weather we continue with the line of gloves. All our other gloves are awesome. Cheers

I have had two sets of your gloves, cannot remember the styles, one set was pretty reasonable and the other a bit average, but for the money I couldn't complain.
I currently have a set of 1tonne boots, I dunno what flavour, but they're not bad. Fairly dry etc, and very comfy

Now speaking of gloves I have an idea for you. How about winter gloves with a summer gloves palm? So thin on the palm and fingers so you can feel the grips/levers. Back thick to keep ya hands warm. Those of us with Hotgrips dont need insulation on the grip area.

I would buy that.

Unless of course somebody already has done it....

I was thinking the exact same thing earlier this week.

Still want hard knuckle protection and scaphoid protection though! So many winter gloves are under-armoured.

That'd be two takers.
I have used gloves of that style before and found them to be awesome many moons ago, before heated grips were available as kit sets.
The only reason I don't have now is I have not seen any for sale.


Stupid phone / Tapatalk, apologies in advance.

I will investigate and see what I can do.
