Troy Lee Designs is a brand that's steeped in mountain bike history, and judging by their latest collection, 2014 should be another good year for the Californian brand.

For the 2014 range, the team at Troy Lee Designs has launched a new ‘category symbol system’, which essentially means that the company has tailored their range to suit the specific needs of different riders, whether it's cross-country, all-mountain or gravity.

We've taken a look at the three clothing ranges below, as well as Troy Lee Designs' latest helmets and protection ranges. Check the gallery for more images.
