I've been thinking of buying a neck brace for a while, and now that the jumps on the track are getting bigger and everyone is getting faster I think everyone should be encouraged to consider getting them.
It would be good if the people that already have them could recommend what types are worth getting and if there are any to be avoided. Where's the best place to look to get info on whats good and whats not, and how much people should pay for them. If you look at ebay, the prices range from very cheap to about £500.
Obviously you get what you pay for at the end of the day, but not very many people can afford to spend large amounts of money.
Any recommendations would be good.

Ayup, yeah i use the Leatt moto gpx club brace and it is really good. There are other makes out now, check out the Frosystems one too. The best armour i found with the Leatt brace is Wulfsport, although the Fox one does work but seems to keep the brace slightly higher on your shoulders. I found it didnt work with 661 armour, even after hacking away at the armour itself to get it sitting on my shoulders properly. Hope that helps! |

I use a Leatt brace, if find it comfortable. I would recommend to get some form of neck brace. I started with the foam neck style braces, i found them good, but i got a good deal on a brace.
Get one!! with your wages you can afford it. I would PM jadams for his. |
