In the event of a motorcycle accident, the rider is exposed to a series of injuries that can be costly. In addition to the already widespread use of a helmet, a jacket, pants, gloves and special boots must be added to ensure the best protection. If we add to this the necessary caution when driving, accidents and their consequences will be less and less frequent.
It is important to emphasize the proper use of these safety elements so that they are effective. Among the most commonly used motorcycle safety elements, the most important is the helmet. Despite its widespread use, it is important to remember that the helmet must have specific characteristics in order to perform its task properly. It goes without saying that the helmet must meet the homologation requirements, which certify that the helmet meets all the requirements of the controlling Administrations.
We at Ecuador Bike Rental are always looking for our equipment to be of the best quality, for this reason we do not skimp in looking for the best implements so that our customers can travel safely.

Our Jackets:
The Joe Rocket Turbulent is an all-season textile jacket with an attractive price point, versatility and some pretty nifty features.
The outer shell of the jacket is water, wind and abrasion resistant treated polyester. The polyester mesh liner in the jacket’s body creates an air gap between the body and the jacket, while the multiple venting system functions even when the zippered thermal liner is removed.
The full-sleeve thermal liner with zipper and pocket has laser quilted taffeta with synthetic polyfill insulation, making Joe Rocket’s Turbulent jacket a cool to cold weather option. Add a long-sleeve inner layer, as I did, and it can handle downright chilly temperatures, even in windy weather.
The heavy-duty full front zipper is backed by a narrow storm flap, as well as the most impressive inner storm flap I’ve seen.
The mao collar with snap closure has a comfortably soft neoprene padded top edge that matches the sleeve cuffs. The sleeves feature cuff zippers, hook-and-loop adjustment tabs at the cuffs, three-position snap adjusters just below the elbows, and zippered vents at the biceps.
The traditional external zippered handwarmer pockets on the Joe Rocket Turbulent motorcycle jacket are a practical way to carry cargo securely. On the left, there is an internal chest pocket between the external zipper and storm flap. To access the inner pocket, it is not necessary to unzip the storm flap. The jacket also features a practical padded pocket with a hook-and-loop flap closure on the lower back.
The jacket allows great freedom of movement, which is aided by the articulated back expansion panels behind the shoulders. Reflective piping and shoulder logos enhance night and low-light visibility.
Our Pants:
Designed to offer good water resistance. They are comfortable and warm, with a thick lining but a looser than average fit. The pant spec sheet features Joe Rocket Rock Tex 600 Denier fabric, treated with “Nano” for 100% waterproofness and breathability.
The spec sheet for the Nano pants closely mirrors that of the jacket. Both utilize the same Joe Rocket Rock Tex 600 Denier fabric with “Nano” treatment, claimed to be “100 percent waterproof” while remaining breathable.
The pants feature a thick liner that you can remove at the top with a full-waist zipper. In addition, the liner provides excellent insulation and wind protection.
The pants feature a CE-approved knee pad that you can place in one of two positions. You can place the knee pad in the top pocket and ensure it fits properly.
Also included is a thick but slightly small hip pad on each side. These are removable and Joe Rocket says the material is “high density”. At the back of the pants, below the waistband, is a thin “tail bone pad”.
The pants boast nearly full-length water-resistant zippers on the sides and “melt-resistant” material on the inside of the lower legs. Reflective material in the shape of a checkerboard is also present on the lower leg.
Boots:
