2018 Thor MX Lineup
As a dirt bike enthusiast this is one of the best times of the
year. While we're still five months away from the new year, this is
when we start hearing about all the exciting new things in the
pipeline like new bikes models and dirt bike riding
gear collections. Most recently Thor released its 2018 x gear
collection along with a video of some of their sponsored riders
such as Jason Anderson, Marvin Musquin and Chaparral/Yamaha Factory
team rider Cooper Webb putting the new riding gear through its
paces.

Some of the highlights for the 2018 Thor lineup include the Prime
Fit Collection which does away with loose fitting gear flapping in
the wind for a more athletic cut. Think of it as skinny jeans and
jerseys for the dirt. With compression sleeves, lots of stretch
material on the pants the gear set offers an aggressively fitting
chassis while still delivering comfort. The Fuse and Fuse Air offer
some great colorways with subtle patterns making them a great
choice for those who like to downplay their kit and let their
riding do the talking. Things get a bit wilder with the Pulse
Collections which offers geometric patterns in either broad stripes
or a shockwave of smaller stripes slinging in all different
directions.

The vented Pulse Air Kits are an excellent choice for when the
weather heats up by allowing for plenty of breathability and the
tie-dye like color schemes go great with that summertime vibe.
Looking to get more riders onboard with the Thor brand, for 2018
the company introduced its new entry-level gear set, the Sector
Kits. Even though the pricing for this gear set is on the lower end
does that mean it's of lesser quality. You get some great features
like raglans sleeves for easy mobility, moisture wicking materials,
stretch panels, and a drop tail to keep the jersey tucked in. And
with one set of black pants you can mix and match jersey to create
several different looks.
