Kove’s New Midsize Adventure Bike Touts a Full Suite of Rider-Focused Tech

While the 581cc parallel twin engine makes a respectable 62.6 horsepower and 42 lb-ft of peak torque, this bike really goes over the top with its componentry and tech, including front and rear KYB suspension, a 6.75-inch curved TFT display, cruise control, heated grips and seat and standard radar-based blind spot monitoring. The 21.5-liter tank supports a claimed 300-plus miles of touring range, rounding out a loaded midsize ADV that’s expected to dip under €7,000 in Europe, equivalent to just a bit over $8,100 USD if it ever lands stateside (fingers crossed).

Tensio is a screen-free, two-sensor wrist system built from the ground up for strength training. Worn on both wrists simultaneously, it automatically tracks reps, measures time under tension, logs rep tempo and flags left/right side asymmetries, with no phone in hand required. The device boasts a 30-plus-day battery life, and core metrics need no subscription to utilize.

Thermoregulation, streamlined material technology and a vivid new Larch colorway? Sign us up for Arc’teryx’s latest version of its Merino Wool Mid Bird Sock, which combines ultra fine merino wool fibers with nylon, maximizing both the wool’s natural performance features and nylon’s durability. Targeted cushioning, mesh zones and ribbed arch support provide comfort and breathability, while the subtle Arc’teryx logo and not-so-subtle bright orange colorway offer mountain-ready style.

Albishorn’s latest “imaginary vintage” tool watch combines a skin diver with a yacht timer in the Marinagraph Classic. The watch interprets what such a watch would’ve looked like and functioned like in 1958, but with modern materials and craftsmanship. A proprietary monopusher chronograph and patented countdown function handle the regatta timer duties, while an oversized, fully lumed, sapphire timing bezel and 100m water resistance make the watch a capable skin diver. Limited to just 99 pieces and sold with a pair of Tropic-style rubber straps, the Marinagraph Classic retails for CHF 3,950 (~4,870).

Part of Sabah’s El Paso Collector’s Series, the Matera Woven Baba starts with cognac-colored leather handwoven by artisans in Chennai, India, then travels to Sabah’s El Paso workshop where shoemakers finish each pair by hand. The veg-tanned bull sole and insole mold to the foot over time, and a McKay stitch construction keeps the profile low and flexible. Each limited-run pair is stamped with its production month and year.

McLaren’s McL 6GT concept marks the brand’s first manual supercar since the legendary F1 in 1992. However, it’s not just an appeal to enthusiasts of row-your-own gearboxes; it’s a modern yet analog expression of the brand’s performance ethos. Along with a carbon-fiber monocoque, it also touts rear-wheel drive, hydraulic steering and a V8 powertrain. Wearing a design inspired by Bruce McLaren’s unrealized 1960s road-going dream, it lays the foundation for a production version to take shape in 2028.
