Leatt Neck Brace - Club - Medium

The Leatt-Brace is an injection produced glass reinforced nylon or carbon fiber andKevlar neck brace system designed by medical professionals and motorcycle enthusiaststo help prevent:
 

• Hyperflexion: extreme forward head movement
• Hyperextension: extreme rearward head movement
• Lateral Hyperflexion: extreme sideways head movement
• Axial loading: compression of the spinal column due to the effect of force on the helmet
• Posterior hypertranslation: rearward movement of the head/helmet on the neck.

There is currently no other neck protection system available for motorcyclists thatcan effectively help prevent all of the above potential injuries. The design rationalebehind the Leatt-Brace is to bring the head to a controlled stop. This is achieved byproviding a padded rigid structure that acts as an alternate load path for neck forces.Helmet impacts otherwise transmitted from the helmet to skull and then to the neck arere-directed from the helmet to the brace to other body structures in a safe way.

The design of the Leatt-Brace prevents the helmet/head from projecting over the braceand therefore prevents a fulcrum action, which has been documented in literaturepertaining to the use of collar devices. The Leatt-Brace MOTO GPX works with mosttypes of body armor and chest protectors. It is also suitable for use by Superbikeriders. Over long distances, the Leatt-Brace will also offer some relief from neckfatigue. Only leathers with a hump require minor modification.

The X-Strap (for upright riding position) and GP-Strap (for Superbike leatherswith a hump), included with the MOTO GPX, are designed for the extreme rider who mayexperience 'float' at high speed (Superbike) or in a big air and flat-out whoopsituations (motocross). Note: Not all riders will find the X-Strap and the GP-Strapnecessary.

The Leatt-Brace MOTO GPX is compatible with all motorcycle helmet types andour design allows riders an adequate range of movement. The Leatt-Brace MOTO GPX isdesigned for use on all motorcycles and ATVs for competition use, recreational ridingand daily commuting. The Leatt-Brace has been tested by BMW Munich, KTM Works Riders,the SABS (South African Bureau of Standards). It is also endorsed by MSA (MotorsportSouth Africa).
