Leatt Braces are lab designed to fit most riders young or old, amateur or professional, but most importantly, theyre built and tested to help lessen the risk of injury when riding. Its just that simple The Leatt Lab, based in Cape Town, South Africa, is Leatts home of research & development. Here Dr. Leatt and his team of engineers and designers conceptualize and test new products and constantly strive to improve existing products even further. The facility features state of the art testing and prototyping equipment that enables the team to take a product from conceptualization, through testing, all the way to pre production prototypes. While the majority of Leatts R&D gets done at the Cape Town facility, collaborations with global partners give our products an international flavour The philosophy of testing at Leatt has been to develop testrigs and methods that allow comprehensive in house testing and exploration of product performance. Using a range of real life scenarios similar to the types of situations that might be encountered in the appropriate form of racing or other accident, tests are conducted at intensity levels that allow Leatt engineers to fully understand and characterize accident dynamics and productrider interaction, in order to optimize product performance. It also gives Leatt engineers the confidence to expect a first round approval when submitting product to certification facilities, where appropriate, for examination Features MaxiWeave Carbon matrix for increased rigidity and lower weight Lightweight 620g still very ridged without flex Lowered helmet rim striking platform profile Improved helmet side clearance On board size adjusting, no parts needed Folding thoracic for easy storage New optional design clear strap included 3 way adjustable for great comfort and fit CE certified as Personal Protective Equipment 89686EECBuyLeatt Protection from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
