Na but i want one if they come in another color other then yellow.

Been trying to find some nice armor to work with the leatt for a while.

Acerbis did some but it was pretty plain looking

Do you know if the shops can get it yet?

I like the fact its CE rated to level 2. I've got to go to a couple of shops in Hamilton Monday, I'll find out if its out here yet and if anyone has some to try on.

starting to think that something like this, and some slip on elbow pads would fit better than my preasure suit with my neck brace. Anyone else doing this, does it offer the same level of protection?

Not wanting to step on Scotts deal if he has one here but we can do these also, color options available and fully Leatt brace compatible

They are $558 and are a very high end back/chest protector specifically designed for Mx etc.
let me know if we can help:yes:

Boyds will have one in on Friday. Going round a few Auckland stores tomorrow will see if I can get one to try on.

Think they are around the $240 mark for CE level 2 that's not bad. And looking at the new 661 elbow pads the one with the new 3DO material think that's what its called.

So i ended up buying The pro version from Waikato Yamaha, It pretty well priced for armor that matches/works with the leatt. It also for me removed the need for the chest strap to stop the leatt bouncing around because the armor has little elastic tabs on your sholders that go over the leatt. I used it at Cambridge today for the first time and it is a huge improvement over my old stuff which cost the same $$

Likes:
Works with Leatt very well.
Light weight
I hardly no its there
Lots of adjustments
Plenty on vents for cooling

Dislikes:
Color choice, There is none you eaither by the gray and back adventure or the yellow and black adventure pro.

I thought the instructions could have said more. Ive seen these worn 2 different ways with the leatt now

Maybe slightly larger sholder protection

No flat area for a number for those the have numbers on there armour.


There we go i hope this helps people make a choice i was stumped what to get until this came along.
