Sounds great!

Are they intended for universal use, or designed for specific purpose IE: Track racing!

I am interested (and concerned) first for my grand children and my kids,(motocross racing) then me! (venture biking) Cheers John.

[scott411]

they were devolped for mx racing, but thier is no reason why you could not use it for trail riding or more

interesting note, on our first mr mc trail ride this year i saw a young guy riding in a leatt brace, and a tee shirt, bit weird if you asked me,

Aaah, but he was looking 'cool', Scott.

Good job Scott

I did some figures and am pleased at your costings. I probably wouldn't have posted if I thought they where expensive.

Here goes

$160.00 pounds The converts to $432-00NZD which includes their rent, overheads, freight to the stores & profit margin etc etc

Finally someone has a product that equals pretty close what we can get it for from overseas.
I imagine you've managed to cut out the stupid margins the importers put on and only had to add the above to your wholesale purchase price as well.

If your $450-00NZD is including GST! respect to you!!

Can you get 78' Z1R parts!

large mac attack and a diet coke? lol

I would be keen to have a look at one, its something I have been considering and at that price it is far more affordable.

hey scott. any idea on weight? random q's, do you think you could wear one of these at the same time as the 661 personal radiators?

[scott411]

Don't have a weight yet, will know when i get the samples out,
they are a all foam construction so offer more cusioning than the leatt from the information i have. slightly different theory in what a brace should do.

should not be a problem to run with the 661 radiators, may start to get unfortable with all the layers tho,

Could be worse, could be leatt brace without a helmet.

yea, was my thought about the layers as well, you have neck brace then radiator then hydration pack then chest protector. at the end of all that i doubt you have much movement. my problem is which one to lose?? those that have not tried the 661 radiators will probably say that, but they are really good for summer riding..... :blink:

[jimmy 2006]

hey scott, i'm keen on one of those braces when they come in. can you PM me

[scott411]

samples arrived in country today, i might have them tomorrow, ill pm you when i have them in my hands

Scott
