What makes Leatt's Neck Brace Great?
- Chassis - The key is the Leatt rigid non-flex chassis. Stopping and de-accelerating the head quickly reduces the risk of a neck injury. A flexible or a soft chassis increase force over time to the neck and offers significantly less protection than a Leatt neck brace!
- Platform - Size and height matters. The Leatt helmet striking platform is unique. The shape and size is optimized to make contact with the helmet shell. The helmet is not allowed to protrude over the correct sized platform and the helmet will touch the platform before stretching out your neck! This is Leatt!
- Fit - Only a perfect fit can reduce neck forces by bypassing the load from your helmet to the body. No other neck brace has the adjustability and the fit like a Leatt!
- Overload - Neck braces do not absorb energy. They transfer energy from the helmet to the body. Leatt neck braces have built-in overload protection. The rear thoracic, the rear wing and the front platform will all break in case of overload. This is Leatt!
- Testing Data - Leatt is the only neck brace manufacturer that can back up their technology with true testing data. Leatt has refined the neck brace testing procedure they developed together with BMW in 2005 and they are now using the latest Hybrid III Crash Test Dummy and Motorcycle Specific Crash Test Neck with computer software available. BMW is still Leatt's proud customer. This is Leatt!
