On Multi-day Rides
On multi-day rides you know conditions are gonna vary so when it comes to deciding on the best items of clothing for mountain biking in New Zealand the basic rule of thumb is the more Merino the better. Not only is it Nature’s most perfect insulation, keeping you cool in hot temperatures and warm in cold ones, but its teeny tiny superfine fibres dispel moisture and odour so, you guessed it, you don’t get as stinky as you might wearing something non-Merino in the same conditions. Apart from that, think shortie clothing for mountain biking in New Zealand for summer with a couple of merinos thrown in and maybe a pair of leggings; and lengthen everything for winter with a couple of shortie things for great days. In the Krank Dirtwear range of clothing for mountain biking in New Zealand we know you’ll love the Scorch (for guys) and the Swish (for gals). Merino is also quick drying which is important for multi-day rides as you never know what the weather might do. And of course, don’t forget your Krank Dirtwear shell (Highside or Zooma) in case the weather does get negative, as it is not only wind and rain resistant but wards off the negative vibes from all those other jealous mountain bikers you meet out there who are not wearing Krank.
