Both use nylon bases, chromoly rails and slim padding with a central relief channel for pedalling comfort. Strips of PU material on the cover add wet weather grip. The AM model weighs 283g and costs $67, while the SM, at 254g and $45, is a smaller version for younger riders. Gusset are also releasing a dirt jump model designed in conjunction with UK slopestyle star and MBUK columnist Matt Jones.
