Ficeda have introduced Dunlop’s next generation intermediate-to-hard terrain off-road MX tyre – the Geomax MX53. Designed to offer more performance in a wider variety of terrains, the MX53 excels on hard-packed tracks while also offering greater versatility in intermediate riding conditions.
With upgraded technology, the Dunlop MX53 aims to offer riders more versatility with better performance. This is in part due to the all-new tread pattern on both the front and rear tyres. A revolutionary horseshoe shaped cluster of knobs has been added to the front tyre. This acts as a giant claw to dig into the ground and give the rider improved traction on hard-packed terrain and maximizes braking grip.
The Geomax MX53 now also features Dunlop’s patented ‘Progressive Cornering Block’ technology on the front tyre. This technology, commonly known as Block-In-A-Block, allows enhanced flex on each knob resulting in ultimate grip and even more biting edges.
This bold new pattern of blocks have a hollowed-out portion on the center tread, resulting in less stiffness in the center of the tyre, giving riders better feedback and more compliance. Paired with a taller profile, this new MX53 front tyre provides gentler handling, more traction, higher lean angles and better maneuverability when compared to its predecessor.
Dunlop’s patented Block-In-A-Block technology on the rear tyre borrows from the success of the upgrades in technology added to the Geomax MX33, Dunlop’s soft-to-intermediate tyre. Incorporating these block designs that have already proven successful now give the MX53 more biting edges, increased grip and enhanced flex on each individual knob. These elements all contribute to enhance durability and performance in harder terrains.
The compound that was chosen for the MX53 tyres has a high number of molecular polymer particles. This results in a higher fracture strength, meaning more durability. Dunlop has also added more fine carbon particles. The carbon particles are what give the Geomax tyres their legendary grip. More durability, more grip. What more could you ask for?
The MX53 lineup is now shipping and will be available at all off-road dealerships by the end of the month. Pre-order from your local dealer now: www.ficeda.com.au/dealerlocator (link)

Joel Ryan – Ficeda’s Scott Motosports Manager
“The SCOTT Prospect is the go-to goggle for any rider wanting the best performance from their goggles. For 2020 we’ve worked closely with our SCOTT athletes both here in Australia and the U.S to refine the existing Prospect and provide an even better sweat absorption and fit around the nose with the pre-moulded no sweat foam. The Works Film System is the film system our riders can rely on to perform in the heat of racing.”
Find out for yourself what makes it so special by examining the features behind the lens of each Prospect model.
Scott Prospect Goggle
The Prospect goggle should be at the top of your list for the upcoming season, giving you optimised vision, protection and style.
NEW – ‘No Sweat’ Face Foam
This unique face foam consists of a microfiber layer which is extremely water absorbing. It soaks up moisture super fast and avoids sweat getting into your eyes or inside the goggle.
Massive Field of Vision
Scott offers the largest field of vision on the market. The larger lens and the thin frame construction bring the lens closer to your eyes maximizing your vision to the fullest.
Lens Lock System
With this feature Scott guarantees the safest lens retention on the market. It features four locking pins that go through the lens keeping the lens in no matter what.
Pivoting Outriggers
The two pivoting outriggers adapt to any helmet shape, providing a good seal on the rider’s face.
WFS50 Compatible
The Prospect is compatible with Scotts revolutionary WFS50. The pivoting outriggers enable slick integration of the canisters which are easily installed without any tools.
Big 3-Layer Face Foam
Scott’s 3-Layer Face Foam incorporates two layers of foam and one “No Sweat” layer to provide maximum comfort.
Scott Prospect WFS Goggle
A reliable partner for the most demanding weather conditions – the Scott WFS50. The view is wide open, the comfort beyond standard and the performance leaves other goggles scrambling for second place.
Click-On Canister
No need for tools, no need to waste time; simply click the canisters onto the Works pins and ride. The red lever makes sure the canister is safely attached. This system is the ultimate in Works technology.
Integrated Canister Design
The canisters being positioned behind the pivoting outriggers results in an increase in field of vision. The canister integration also brings a more fluid look, achieving necessary style points.
Large 50mm Film
The Scott WFS50 is the largest film on the market with no less than 50 millimetres. Combined with a thin frame construction, it offers up to 50 clear views even in the most challenging conditions.
Antistick Grid And Transparent Mud Flap
A large film requires an optimized antistick grid with mudflap. A thin vertical line has been added in the middle of the grid to make sure the film never sticks to the lens.
Scott Prospect Enduro Goggle
Optimal performance with an enhanced field of vision, making poor visibility an obstacle from yesterday. The Prospect enduro features a double lens with ventilation system to prevent fogging, giving you a maximum field of visionduring your ride.
Double Lens
Spacer Foam and Double Lens block moisture and eliminate fogging while allowing for optimal breathability.
Air Control System (ACS)
ACS ventilation incorporates lens air intake vents on the goggle lens and frame air outtake vents on the bottom of the goggle resulting in a sophisticated ventilation system against condensation and fogging.
Antifog on Inner Lens
Enduro double lenses include a soft inner lens which features a stronger built-in antifog solution than any other Scott lens. When riding Enduro races fog should never be an obstacle.
Scott Prospect Sand Dust Light Sensitive Goggle
Made to protect you from the smallest sand grain, the Prospect Sand Dust LS brings you through the toughest conditions out in the desert. Paired with a light sensitive lens which adapts to sunlight intensity, this is your must have goggle for the next season.
Small Particle Vent Foam Membrane
To avoid any sand or dust sized particles to get into the frame, all Scott Sand Dust goggles are mounted with a closed cell membrane instead of the traditional open cell vent foam. This technology guarantees perfect isolation from the elements.
Light Sensitive Lens Cat. 1-2
Scott Light Sensitive lenses engage photo-chromic technology and adapt automatically to sunlight intensity. These lenses react to light changes and within seconds the lens will darken when the brightness gets stronger or lighten when the sunlight gets weaker.
Double Lens
Spacer Foam and Double Lens block moisture and eliminate fogging while allowing for optimal breathability.

We all know that flying down the road at high speed isn’t always a fun experience during winter. The worst part about it isn’t just the frozen tears and runny nose you struggle to wipe inside your helmet. It’s also trying to use fingers so numb you’re not 100 per cent sure if you’re even rolling the throttle, pulling the clutch, and braking or not.
Fortunately, Ixon have provided the solution – the 2019 winter gloves range! Not only are they warm, breathable and waterproof, they’re also CE approved. This means you can be assured you are wearing the highest quality glove with maximum safety and protection.
The newest editions to the 2019 range include the Pro Continental glove for the avid adventurer; the Pro Kent and Pro Russel gloves for urban riders; and the Pro Russel and Pro Rescue gloves for the Ladies. Something that makes Ixon gloves particularly desirable is Primaloft One, which is known for its proficiency in thermal performance. Ixon have really taken the time to understand what gloves will keep you warm in winter!
Here’s a break down of one of Ixon’s best winter gloves on the market – the Ixon Pro Continental, which is available for $169.95 RRP in Australia, or $199.90 RRP in New Zealand.
The Ixon Pro Continental features CE armour, with a knuckle protector on the backhand, as well as a slider on the bottom of the palm, and a reinforced sidewall. Construction of the backhand is goat leather and a softshell, while the palm includes goat leather and printed synthetic suede, with a polyester lining and Primaloft One 133g/4.7oz insulation.
Ensuring comfort is a waterproof and breathable integrated membrane, with warm Primaloft One lining. The inner lining is very soft micropolar, for a comfortable feel.
A long cuff with tightening strap and elasticated wrist with tightening strap ensure a good tight fit, while there’s a rain wiper on index which makes for easy visor clearing in poor weather. The index finger is compatible with touch screens.
Fist Hand Wear have announced a new set of Robbie Maddison inspired red label gloves – the Highlighter V1 – featuring the Aussie emblem of the boxing kangaroo.
As always, the Fist glove includes a pre-curved clarino palm allowing for superior wear without sacrificing feel. The gloves include form-fitting technology ensuring that there is no bunching or blistering while enjoying full breathability and flexibility.
Sublimated twill spandex uppers also allow for full breathability and supreme comfort. Tacky silicon finger and palm prints offer maximum grip even in the wettest of conditions. In summary, a glove design that has not skimped on features!
