A stripped down version of the iconic Air Brace, the Air Lite comes with the lower shoulder pads, and injection-molded nylon rear mounts which enables an even better value while retaining all that you know and love - The combination of a simplistic minimalist design with flexibility, suspension, and the largest brace-to-body contact ratio. The Atlas family of braces are the clear category leader across the entire range.
- Weightless Minimal Design: Everything you need, nothing you don't. The minimalist design is incredibly light, small in size, yet big on features.
- Flexible Polymer Construction: Tough, impact-resistant polymer construction is ideal for multiple impacts. The flexible nature of the material is designed to slow down violent impacts in an effort to spread out and reduce impact forces, rather than coming to an abrupt stop.
- Split-Flex Frame: The Split-Flex Frame design allows the rear of the brace to mimic the natural movements of your shoulders to provide the ultimate comfort and mobility.
- Spine and Sternum Free: Each Atlas Neck Brace sits around your spine and sternum, transferring impact forces to the bigger muscle groups rather than directly on the spine and sternum, while greatly increasing surface area contact with the body to dissipate forces more efficiently.
- Chest Suspension: Chest suspension keeps the head in motion during a longer period of the impact, while promoting tuck-and-roll ability during an accident. Unique leaf spring style design provides 30 mm of chest suspension to help slow down and reduce impact forces. Each chest support can operate independently, allowing impact forces to be absorbed strategically and effectively.
- 27% More Body Contact: Each Atlas Brace is the smallest overall size compared to the competition, but contacts your body 27% more than the competition - making it smaller, and bigger. Increased surface area contact with the body helps spread out impact forces, with the intent of making their effects less noticeable and/or helping to potentially prevent secondary injuries.
- Wireless Tether: Previously the rear tethers used an internal braided steel cable for strength. After three years of development Atlas has gone wireless! The new tethers use a specifically formulated rubber compound comolded to custom machined aluminum axle nuts. This unique rubber compound provides incredible strength and longevity, withstanding nearly infinite cycle testing.
- Easy Open: Super strong 7075 aluminum Easy Open release system makes removing an Atlas Brace effortless, reliable, and tough.
- Height Adjustment Ready: Each Atlas Air neck brace features two height adjustments. Tall pads are sold separately to make fit easier for longer necks, smaller helmets, and/or other needs.
- Nylon Mounts: All new Polymer Mounts on the back of each Air Lite provide two possible settings to fit around your chest and back. The reversible design can move the back supports forward or back.
- Hybrid II Strap: A marriage of chest strap comfort, with X strap versatility. Wear it over or under your jersey, and hook it into the supplied clips on each Atlas Brace.
- Multi-Use: Each Atlas Brace is suitable for all non-seated activities that require a full-face helmet. This includes Motocross, Supercross, off-road / trail riding, BMX, mountain biking, snowmobiling, ATVs, etc.
- Notes: Taller shoulder pads sold separately, and still come in the box of the Air product. Atlas does NOT recommend using this product for seated / belted activities like car racing, side-by-sides, or similar, as they are not intended for this type of use.
