Does the Leatt-Brace™ restrict driver/rider mobility in any way?
In order to prevent injury, the Leatt-Brace™ restricts extreme ranges of movement that cause injury, but allows the driver or rider enough movement to get on with driving or riding. Users often report a feeling of being naked and vulnerable after taking the brace off. One Lap or five minutes is usually all it takes to get used to the brace.

TOP
Does the Leatt-Brace™ work with all safety belts and seating configurations?
Yes.

TOP
Can my safety harness straps slip off the brace?
No, in fact, the Leatt-Brace™ is designed to keep your safety harness away from your soft tissue neck structures but remain stable under the safety harness during an impact or even a car roll.

TOP
Do I have to modify my equipment/vehicle to use the Leatt-Brace™?

MOTO GPX: generally speaking, no equipment modification is required, however some modification to shirts, jackets, chest protectors and body armor may be required, depending on the design. Riders using a racing leather suit with aerodynamic hump need to unstitch a small portion of the hump to allow the thoracic member of the brace to slide into place.
MOTO R: No modification to your seat, safety harness or helmet is required. A strap SSS (Smart Strap System) is required to be fitted to your helmet’s chin strap. The SSS requires no drilling or special helmet mounting point and is compatible with all commercially available helmets. The SSS then locks into place on the rear top member of the brace.

TOP
Does the Leatt-Brace™ comply with safety standards?
The Leatt-Brace™ MOTO R is SFI 38.1 certified. There are no other test standards pertaining to the braces. We are awaiting a test standard for the MOTO GPX brace.

TOP
Why is the Leatt-Brace™ better than other head and neck restraints available?
Simply put, we believe we have the best solution to the problem. Can any other neck protection system offer you protection against the following injury types?

Hyperflexion – head moving forwards
Hyperextension – head moving backwards
Posterior Hypertranslation – head moving backwards on the neck
Lateral Hyperflexion – head moving sideways (side impact)
Axial Loading – compressive force acting on the spine
Control head deceleration to prevent traumatic brain injury
Protect the soft tissue neck structures from your safety harness and chest protector.
Control in-car head movements after more than one impact e.g. car roll-over
Protection if ejected from the vehicle
Protection from all the common injury types for cars, karts, motorcycles, quads, etc.
Please visit our MOTO R and MOTO GPX test pages to get all out test results. TOP
What is the Leatt-Brace™ constructed from?
Injected Glass-Reinforced-Nylon and/or Carbon Fiber & Kevlar with an inner padding layer.

TOP
Are junior sizes available?
Yes.

TOP
Can I wash my Leatt-Brace™?
Yes, with soap and water, the padding is removable too.

TOP
Can the Leatt-Brace™ be used with water sports?
Yes.

TOP
What is the expected lifespan of my Leatt-Brace™?
We recommend three years, and replacement of any damaged part if you are involved in a high impact collision.

TOP
What impact does the Leatt-Brace™ have on my brain?
The Leatt-Brace™ is designed to decelerate the head in a controlled way so as to limit a sudden deceleration force on your brain. During an accident, the head of a driver moves surprisingly far and can strike in-car structures so your Leatt-Brace™ is designed to reduce head injuries too. Head deceleration is reduced when compared to a no device impact. Please see our MOTO R test page for details.

TOP
What if my Leatt-Brace™ breaks in an accident?
You will need to replace the damaged component. If a part of the brace breaks, as it is intended to do, then the force required to cause the break has been directed away from your head and neck. Individual components can be replaced by your Leatt-Brace™ distributor.

TOP
Can I use my Leatt-Brace™ in conjunction with a back protector and chest protector on a motorcycle?
Yes.

TOP
Where can I view the Leatt-Brace™ technical information and test results?
Please visit the MOTO R and MOTO GPX testing pages.

TOP
Can I invest in the Leatt-Brace™ company?
Yes, please visit our 'Investor Relations' page or click on the 'Stock Quote' icon for more information.

TOP
How much does a Leatt-Brace™ cost?
The suggested retail prices are US$395 (Club Version), US$595 (Sports Version) and US$995 (Professional Version) and excludes import duties, shipping and taxes depending on the version you choose. They all offer the same protection and vary only in weight and finish.

TOP
Where can I buy a Leatt-Brace™?
You can purchase a brace online, please visit the MOTO R or MOTO GPX order pages or from our distributor/retailer in your area.

TOP
Can I use a Leatt-Brace™ with cars, quads, motorcycles, downhill bikes, jet skis, rubber ducks, off shore powerboats?
Yes, we have two brace versions, namely; the MOTO R (Restrained Drivers) and MOTO GPX (Unrestrained Drivers/Riders) that cater for all vehicle and user classes. Please view our MOTO R and MOTO GPX products pages.

TOP
What does the thoracic member do and is it safe?
The thoracic member allows for brace fitment, prevents rotation of the brace, and allows for the transmission of hyperextension and hypertranslation forces from one spinal segment to approximately eleven. It is completely safe; you can fall directly onto your back wearing a brace without injury. The energy is applied to the muscles that run on either side of your spine, is enclosed in padding and has been used in testing with numerous riders, many of whom have had big falls and crashes!

Αν θυμάμαι καλά, το Neck-brace εξελίχθηκε με την συνεργασία αρκετών εταιριών του χώρου, δεν αποτελεί κάποια καινοτομία της ΚΤΜ

Επειδή στους αγώνες τύπου Dakar, αλλά και σε άλλους RR - CCRR αγώνες, υπήρχαν αρκετοί τραυματισμοί στον αυχένα, εξελίχθηκε αυτό το "κολλάρο" το οποίο φοράνε όλοι οι αναβάτες πλέον στο Dakar.

Θεωρώ οτι το προστατευτικό αυτό έχει εξελιχθεί για αθλητές και αναβάτες, και όχι για τον καθημερινό αναβάτη μοτοσυκλέτας εντός πόλης. Αν διαβάσεις το FAQ, λέει πως μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί για ski, jet ski, quads, μοτοσυκλέτες κτλ (όχι για ON-OFF Μόνο δηλ.) Κοινώς, το neck brace θα προστατέψει τον αυχένα και λαιμό από βίαιες μετακινήσεις σε υψηλές ταχύτητες και συνθήκες όπου η πρόσκρουση ή πτώση με πολλά είναι συχνή...

Επίσης το FAQ λέει οτι περιορίζει τις ΑΚΡΑΙΕΣ κινήσεις του λαιμού/αυχένα, κάτι που δεν νομίζω να περιορίζει κανέναν στην καθημερινή μετακίνηση. Ποιος το πουλάει Ελλάδα δεν ξέρω...

Μα γιατί δεν βγάζουν επιτέλους την πανοπλία του IRON MAN να τελειώνει η ιστορία......

Πάντως πολύ καλό. Όταν θα πωλείται και στις αντιπροσωπίες Yamaha θα πάρω ένα.

για μεσα στη πολη μαλλον θα σου κανει τη ζωη δυσκολη, αφου χρειζετε επανελλημενα ελεγχος δεξια/αριστερα/πισω εκτος απο τους καθρεπτες αλλα κ με τη στροφη του κεφαλιου.

θα ηταν πιο "ανετο" σε χρηση πιστας, καποιου μεγαλου ταξιδιου ή σε χωματινες εξορμησεις.

φυσικα εαν το φορας καθε φορα που ανεβαινεις στη μηχανη σιγουρα δεν ειναι κακο,ποτε δε ξες πως/που/ποτε θα κοπανησεις!
