Tucano Urbano

T.ur - "The spirit of adventure touring returns one year later"

T.ur, the new Adventure Touring brand by Tucano Urbano, returned to EICMA a year after its launch with a full programme of 2020 designs - from jackets to gloves, the a new ladies range and travel accessories. One of the highlights was the J-ZERO jacket and P-ZERO trouser winter riding suit - "designed to withstand even the most hostile conditions.

"The suit is a masterpiece of attention to detail, combining thermal comfort, wearability, CE-certified safety and a design that’s unique to the world of motorcycling. The outer layer is made from CORDURA, with inserts in super-strong SUPERFABRIC material. The materials are lined with an impermeable, breathable laminated membrane".
Details include a removable collar and HYDROSCUD structure, "which ensures that the garment is completely impermeable and at the same time guarantees the necessary level of aeration for versatile use in between seasons. The removable under-layer – which can be worn separately – features THERMORE, Thermal Booster (170 g) padding, which increases body temperature when the temperature drops". A 'Safety&Support' system allows the rider to position an elastic lumbar belt inside the jacket to improve the position of the back protector and share the weight of the jacket itself more evenly around the body.

"Safety is guaranteed by the CE17092-certified design, while D3O LP2 PRO Level 2 ventilated armour means that the garments have been able to obtain Class AA ranking.
Completing the winter equipment range are CE-certified G-ZERO gloves, featuring a double-glove structure. The outer gloves have four fingers, with the fourth and fifth fingers joined together to ensure optimum thermal insulation and protection, while HDry technology uses a patented procedure to glue the impermeable membrane to the external material to stop water getting through, even when faced with the most extreme rainfall. The internal gloves have five fingers to ensure maximum dexterity and are made with THERMORE – Thermal Booster (130 g) padding.
The feature-rich women’s J-ONE LADY, P-ONE LADY and G-ONE LADY complement the men’s versions and include THERMORE and HDry in the G-Four gloves. There will also be two new models of bags - the waterproof B-THREE barrel bag and the B-FOUR backpack.
