AXIAL Clothing

Gear up for premier performance with a motorcycle-specific AXIAL Base Layer from Cycle Gear. It is pretty hard to focus on the road when you're freezing, but a set of reliable Axial clothing will keep you in the fight from start to finish. Axial motorcycle gear is about more than just insulation. The base layer has the job of wicking away moisture so sweat doesn't pool next to your body and chill your core. Fortunately, Axial clothing is built with a unique feature set to keep you warm and dry on cold weather rides. That all being said, let's take a closer look.

The Axial Base Layer Goes High-Tech

How does the Axial Base Layer system stand out against traditional layering options? This video from our friends at RevZilla will show you more, but it's all about creating air flow with body-mapped mesh panels. These high perspiration areas, including where your riding armor sits, can really undermine your warmth on the road. Mesh panels move the heat generated away from your body before you have a chance to sweat. Pair this design with breathable 4-way stretch fabric everywhere else on the garment, and you have a base layer a cut above the rest. You can also extend cold weather protection to your helmet with the Axial Base Helmet Liner. Axial is even constructed with anti-microbial properties so your gear won't smell after a hard day. These base layers are available in a compression version to help ease muscle fatigue or a regular version that provides a looser fit. Select the best cut for your needs. Either way, an overall athletic fit eliminates bulk when you wear the base layer under the Axial Jacket and Pants, which we'll examine next.

Stand Up To The Wind With Axial Block

When your core layer is squared away, the Axial Block series is your second line of defense against the frigid cold. But first, let's clear up some confusion about products like the Axial Block Jacket. This is not a base layer like the Axial Base series. Instead, the core aim of Axial Block is to prevent wind from penetrating into your base layer. You won't receive the best results if you wear something like the Axial Block Long Sleeve Shirt against your skin. Aim to wear products like the Axial Block Jacket on top of a base layer. This is the scenario where Axial Block Pants and jackets shine. The Freeze-Out windproof membrane stops wind in its tracks, while a 3D honeycomb fleece liner inside helps trap warm air close to your body. While some windproof jackets can feel bulky or stiff, Axial has placed strategic 4-way stretch panels in all Block garments so you'll still move freely.

Another strength of the Block series is the ability to mix and match apparel styles to fit your needs. Racers and serious riders can get this valuable feature set in an Axial Block One Piece Suit. Or you can choose between an Axial Block Long Sleeve Shirt or Axial Block Jacket depending on what you use for a top layer. There are numerous accessories to choose from as well like the Axial Block Balaclava and Axial Block Glove Liners. Everything is cut in men's and women's sizes including the Axial Glove Liners, so you'll never experience stuffing that can impact your riding performance.
