how much they worth had a Leatt Brace when I raced speedway and they were the bees knees

there is a whole lot of new chest protectors that have been desgined to fit around a leatt much better than before, both Fox and Thor have new ones to the market as well

i find the a-star one a bit tight on medium to big size guys, it is very angled in the front and seems to cut in on anyone that has any excess weight around the middle,

all of them fit slightly different, and it pays to try them on with any neck brace you are wearing with them, esp with the a-star neck brace which due to its back peice is very hard to fit to alot of chest proctectors which is why i think they have released there own braces that suit it perfectly

We sell these ones, they integrate with a Leatt brace.
Best bit of kit I have seen.
These are also proper Cambridge CE rated Protectors, not plastic stone deflectors.

looks mighty protective, but also mighty hot, and uncomfortable, i have always hated having arms attached to chest protectors, there is an air inflated protector on teh market called the RXR, i tried it but it was also to hot to use for me

i know some guys in the USA and one guy here in NZ are using bullet proof kevlar vests, thats the ultimate in there eyes,

but your right in what you say, most mx protectors are desgined as stone guards,

Nope wrong on the hot and uncomfortable, they are awesome in both respects.
Knox are pretty much the world leaders in Body protection products and they dont make products that are uncomfortable,Having worn fairly much everything that they have made.
