The helmet works really well, super light and comfortable. Here are my thoughts on the first rides.
-Lets a little more noise in than the Arai VX-Pro3, I normally don't wear ear plugs but I think I might on longer rides with this helmet.
-Maybe a little more wind noise than the Arai, especially when you turn your head and at high speeds
-Fidlock is neat especially taking off the helmet, but it takes a little knack with gloves that I have not fully developed yet.
-Fit an finish are close to Aria level ( hopefully it hold up well)
-It vents really well, I put the windstopper liner in all weekend. I only got hot on slow rocky sections and some single track
-Did I mention it is light!
-It sits farther down on your head, I had to pull my horse collar off my Tekvest because of interference.
-Eye port is huge, does not push my goggles down on the bridge of my nose like the Aria does. Fits Scott Prospect goggles just fine (with the nose guard removed).
Absolutely love my Tech 7. This is my 2nd pair that I'm buying in last 4 years. These shoes you can wear them instantly (from box to bike) without a break in period
These boots are actually lighter than I thought they would be and are very comfortable. Surprising for a full protection boot!
These boots are everything Atomic Motos videos say they are.construction and materials are top quality.I measured my feet and selected the size accordingly and the fit is right on.would recommend these to everyone.Ordering form Atomic Moto was also great they actually care about what they are doing unlike so many places out there these days.
This is my first pair of motocross boots so this review is strictly regarding fit. I typically wear 8 1/2 wide shoes/boots. I’d say my left foot is E and my right foot is EEE. I have a pair of TCX street boots size 42 and a pair of Forma Adventure boots size 42, both fit fine. I first tried Alpine Stars Tech 7 size 9, not wide enough, actually hurt my right foot at the joint at the base of my pinky toe (no bunion). Next tried Gaerne SG-12 size 9, wide enough but had a pressure point just above my ankle on the inside of right leg. Didn’t want to take a chance on that breaking in so returned them. Then tried Leatt 4.5 Enduro size 9, wider than the Tech 7’s but not wide enough. These were all purchased and returned from another company. I then called Atomic Moto and spoke with Brian. He recommended three boots. I tried the Forma Predator 2.0 Enduro size 43/9, still too tight on right foot. Returned those for the Gaerne SG-22 size 9 and they fit perfect no pressure point. Brian really knows his boots, highly recommend calling him first if you are undecided or need help.
Great service & Great product, better than the originals that came with boots, super comfy.
