Questions & Answers
Regardless of the size of your jacket, please order it in the appropriate size. The soft pads your jacket comes with are intended to add cushioning, but should be kept as a cushion for extra protection. I understand it only makes larges.

Nucelon is the perfect medium size and if you have the original soft back protector inside your jacket, leave it in place, and just slip the nucelon over As an additional purchase, I ordered the Alpinestars nucelon chest protector. It truly feels very comfortable, and should I need to use it, the additional padding will also serve as a padding buffer since the necelon is a much more durable protector. Ride safely.

It hurt a lot. He took a lot of blows to the head and back. I managed to take it all out of my back armor, thus saving When I was high sided into a curb after hitting gravel in a chicane at about 40 mph, I hit a patch of gravel. I took the most damage to my spine. As a result of the crash, I sustained a fractured rib, a headache, some minor road rash, and stiff I am walking, but I am freaking walking! The armor is awesome! I would definitely recommend it! However, I do recommend keeping an eye on your riding and not be an ignorant We learned from this experience. This is a great upgrade for my AlpineStars T-shirt It is a lightweight track jacket with GP Plus R technology. This back pad is much more rigid than the stock cheap foam back pad but still moves nearly as much air. As with the stock foam, this upgrade is also slightly smaller (by one or two cm), but still fits very well. This is a high-quality product that is highly recommended for those who value their spinal chord. A harder plastic makes up the white section, and a rubbery foam makes up the black section. I have a large amount of coverage at my neck's base, covering 90% of my spine.
In order to wear it in my Alpinestars 52 euro size jacket I purchased a large. Though I thought it would hold up much better lower on my back, the pocket and protector seem to be built for each other so I assume it fits as intended. It's important to me to be aware of the back protector when I wear the jacket. I hope the jacket, back protector, and I can function as a unit. Since I don't want to give you a star due to the way things are right now.
The year 1100 I hope that I never have to use this, but I figured that it would be silly to have shoulder, elbow, and arm protection in the jacket but no back protection. You don't even notice it when you ride because it retains your posture and is flexible enough to not bother you. I only gave it four stars because, while the insert goes until the very bottom of the jacket (and so I cannot complain about the lack of substantial tailbone protection, and I'm wearing compression pants with tailbone padding), I wish it went a little higher for a little more.
A good amount of airflow is present. This t-shirt has a completely unnoticeable feel. The price is worth it.
The 1i has the same properties as the KR I do not know how much more protection this will provide. The only complaint I have is that even the large protector is still too short for me, probably only covering half of my lumbar region. However, since I am just a bit under 6'6", I am accustomed to things being too short. It's amazing how flexible this protector is, it really contours to your back and disappears when you wear it.
Although I think this item is expensive for what it says, it molds to my back very quickly once I put my jacket on and provides level 2 protection which provides a nice sense of security. Initially I was concerned that the hard TPU shell on the outside might feel uncomfortable or not conform to my back, but neither of those issues are an issue. It would be worth the price even if it was a bit more expensive. In comparison, I used this size large protector in a size large Alpinestars Solano jacket, and it fit like a glove.
The continuity of my spine is something that I really like, and I'm an AGATT person. Additionally, I am also a dreadful cheapo, so I debated whether I should shell out the money. In the end, I did some mental math by asking myself, "How much does being able to walk equal the cost of this spine protector?"? "Now that I have this spine protector I'm not as worried about spine injuries. The best I can tell is that I have not had the opportunity to discover first-hand whether or not it prevents spinal injury Putting this into action would absorb a lot of energy and prevent a lot of damage if the need ever arose.
The pad that came with it was for sure thicker than the one that was attached The rubber is very nice The material is foam-style with the plate being hard plastic There is no other way to do it When I put the pad in the jacket, it feels comfortable In order to feel your skin slide on the pavement before you, you will desire to make the plastic slide across the pavement before you reach the ground. Keep it the way it is and let's not lose our shine It is best to place the rubber side down. Enjoy your time outdoors and stay safe!.
