Norwegians take aim at the endurists
Fjørå, the mountain bike line launched in 2012, will be joined from spring/summer 2017 by a new line for riders who appreciate descents and speed above all else. In contrast to the strikingly colorful fjørå line, skibotn is kept in grey and black. The line takes its name from a region of Norway north of the Arctic Circle, which guarantees spectacular descents under the midnight sun. The relaxed cut of the clothing offers space for protectors. In total, the line consists of two tops, a pair of shorts, a rucksack and gloves.
The skibotn wool equalizer long sleeve is made from a wool blend that protects against UV radiation and has a climate-regulating effect. The wool comes from animal-friendly farming. The long cut at the back provides optimum protection for the rider, while stretch inserts on the forearms and in the neck area ensure comfort.The skibotn flex1 shorts are designed to be robust and lightweight at the same time. Mesh inserts with zippers on the sides provide better ventilation when needed. The high cut in the lumbar area and the silicone band on the inside of the waistband guarantee an optimum fit and protect against chilling. Various pockets and a goggle cleaning cloth round off the functional details.
The Norwegian enduro line is completed by a rucksack and gloves, which are also not colorful, but simple in color and functional as usual.
