NORRØNA presents the newly revised Fjørå bike collection

The Norwegian outdoor specialists from Norrona are updating their Fjørå bike collection with new products, designs and materials as well as bright colours.

The over 80-year-old Norwegian company is known for its high-quality ski and outdoor clothing. The bike sector has so far been rather neglected. But now Norrøna is updating its Fjørå bike collection.

With the exception of the shorts, which are available in bright green as well as subtle black, all products are new, have been redesigned or have been given new materials.

The new Fjørå Pack backpack now holds 10 litres instead of 7 and features the Norwegian company's patented Ride Rail System, which allows bikers to adjust the shoulder straps perfectly to their size. The main compartment offers space for a pump, tools, hydration pack and inner tube, while the top pocket is suitable for small items such as sunglasses or muesli bars. Of course, there is also an integrated system for the hydration bag. The helmet can also be securely fastened thanks to the many outer straps. The rucksack is available in Norrøna Green and Cool Black. Price: 89.00 euros.

At 107 grams, the thin Fjørå aero 100 wind jacket is so light, according to the manufacturer, that you hardly feel it on your body. Nevertheless, it protects you from the wind and light precipitation. The manufacturer promises high breathability With the extended back section and extra-long sleeves, the jacket should fit well even in a stretched riding position. Thanks to its high breathability, the jacket ensures a good body climate. Price: 159.00 euros.

The rain jacket has been completely redesigned. Instead of the previous Paclite shell, the Norwegians now use their own dri1 membrane to protect against water and wind. The zips on the 2.5-layer Fjørå dri1 Jacket are water-resistant. Reflectors on the arms and sides ensure better visibility and long ventilation openings for a pleasant climate. Price: 249.00 euros.

Norrøna's Bike Short is a stylish short over the knee with a casual, wide cut. Their soft inner material promises a comfortable fit. Generous side zip openings provide the necessary ventilation, while four pockets offer storage space for small items. The nylon material is hard-wearing, robust and dries quickly. The upper waistband is cut higher at the back to protect the kidneys from the wind. In addition, adjustable Velcro fasteners allow the waistband to be individually adjusted to the rider's size. Price: 129.00 euros.

The new Fjørå Equaliser T-shirt comes with a new quick-drying material blend and integrated UV protection. The back is longer and there is a zip pocket for your essentials. Price: 69,00 Euro.
