Just received my new Knox back protector from Quasimoto (www.quasimoto.co.nz), and I'm stoked.

Firstly, it's soooooo light! You hardly feel the weight of it at all. The shoulder straps automatically adjust to the shape of your shoulders and it's got the most amazing impact asorbing stuff I've ever seen in it. Kidney belt also has removable hip protectors and you can customize the shit out of the fit so that it suits ya perfectly.

If you're serious about quality spine protection, you've simply got to have a look at it, nothing more. I challenge anyone not to be impressed.

Mint mint mint. Cheers Quasi:2thumbsup

Hmm, interesting. Can I ask....how much?
Edit: Scrub that, went and had a look for myself and yes, it looks pretty damn impressive.

If I had $300 floating around I would get one for sure!
But I don't so a $70 one from Lifestyle is on the To-Get list :bleh:

Keep us updated on it's awesomeness

$160 actually, planning on a gear + bike overhaul now I've got a job :2thumbsup.
And better a $160 helmet and a $70 back protector than a hat and hoodie IMHO (currently using a pretty inefficient Spyke back protector which got given to me)

No mate you come and get your gear off me (two piece) and I give you one of my old ones for free as part of the deal not a KNOX one but it will suffice.

Good plan my friend. In fact, seeing as you're going to replace it sooner or later anyway, save yourself $70 and PM me your address. You can use my old back protector for as long as you need it.

Edit: Quasi's offer's better :D

Do these come in different sizes? (After all, trashy is a midget) I have been using an older knox model for a while, but wouldn't mind updating.

Sure do come in different sizes mate. You'd need a large I reckon.
