Ducati Has Never Made a Motorcycle Like This Before

Although the brand has been racing it professionally for a while, Ducati’s first-ever motocross bike, the Demo450 MX, is finally available to the general public. Its single-cylinder 449cc engine pumps out 63.5 horsepower and 39.5 lb-ft torque, making it a formidable lightweight dirt bike. Alongside its powertrain, it also has a twin-spar aluminum frame, Showa 49mm upside-down forks and monoshocks, Brembo brakes, Pirelli Scorpion MX32 Mid-Soft tires, Takasago Excel aluminum rims with Alpina spokes and so much more. It’s a bold new lane for the typically street-going Italian brand.

“Our mission? Get the surfers camping and the campers surfing.” So says A. Todd, head of design at Finisterre, about the UK-based company’s new collaboration with Japanese outdoor living brand Snow Peak. Toward that end, this collection features limited-edition Yulex wetsuits, a poncho, titanium camp utensils, waterproof Drift Buckets and a variety of multi-use apparel, including an all-black version of Finisterre’s best-selling Daybreaker Jacket ($210, above), which is equal parts warm, water repellant, lightweight and stylish. 

Fifty years ago, Helle introduced a unique fixed-blade knife with a blade roughly half as long as a traditional one, ideal for carving and woodworking. The Fjording walked so that the iconic Helle Nying could run, and to honor that legacy, the brand has rolled out a 50th anniversary update. The 50 aar (translation: 50 years) features the same short stubby blade and contoured handle but the blade steel has been upgraded to Helle’s thicker laminate H3LC steel and the handle is made of of curly birch, stabilized green curly birch and leather. Like most Helle offerings, this knife comes complete with a premium leather sheath.

LG’s UltraGear GX9 series of OLED gaming monitors were announced at CES 2025 and are now available. The monitors come in three sizes (34-, 39- and 45-inches), each featuring a curved 240Hz display with a 21:9 aspect ratio and are decked out with modern ports (including DisplayPort 2.1, USB Type-C, and HDMI 2.1) to accommodate the latest gaming setups.

Serge Panchenko’s innovative Coin Claw knife has been a cult-favorite EDC oddity for years. But the fifth-generation version you see here is the first time that it’s been given an automatic deployment mechanism. The circular knife features a 1.21-inch S35VN steel hawkbill blade, a stonewashed titanium handle and a button to operate the lock and deployment. It’s also made in the USA.

The New Balance Made in USA line boasts the brand’s highest level of quality and comfort, being crafted in its home state of Massachusetts. The “Avocado and natural mint” color not only sounds like a great summer recipe, but it also makes for a perfect summer sneaker. The FuelCell midsole construction makes the 990v6 a comfortable everyday sneaker.

Inspired by the heads-up displays found in fighter jets and many newer cars, these cycling-focused specs are among the most high-tech and feature-laden ever made. Weighing less than 1.4 ounces and looking like traditional sports sunnies, they nonetheless let you monitor data including distance and pace, track your biometrics, provide AI-driven real-time coaching and alert you to vehicles approaching from the rear. The glasses pair with multiple devices, come with polarized and photochromic treatments and boast eight hours of battery life. Perhaps it is no surprise that the just-launched Kickstarter blew past the $200,000 mark in a matter of hours.
