| There
is
currently
no
other
neck
protection
system
available
for
motorcyclists
that
can
effectively
help
prevent
all
of
the
above
potential
injuries.
The
design
rationale
behind
the
Leatt-Brace
is
to
bring
the
head
to
a
controlled
stop.
This
is
achieved
by
providing
a
padded
rigid
structure
that
acts
as
an
alternate
load
path
for
neck
forces.
Helmet
impacts
otherwise
transmitted
from
the
helmet
to
skull
and
then
to
the
neck
are
re-directed
from
the
helmet
to
the
brace
to
other
body
structures
in
a
safe
way.
The
design
of
the
Leatt-Brace
prevents
the
helmet/head
from
projecting
over
the
brace
and
therefore
prevents
a
fulcrum
action,
which
has
been
documented
in
literature
pertaining
to
the
use
of
collar
devices.
The
Leatt-Brace
MOTO
GPX
works
with
most
types
of
body
armor
and
chest
protectors.
It
is
also
suitable
for
use
by
Superbike
riders.
Over
long
distances,
the
Leatt-Brace
will
also
offer
some
relief
from
neck
fatigue.
Only
leathers
with
a
hump
require
minor
modification.
The
X-Strap
(for
upright
riding
position)
and
GP-Strap
(for
Superbike
leathers
with
a
hump),
included
with
the
MOTO
GPX,
are
designed
for
the
extreme
rider
who
may
experience
'float'
at
high
speed
(Superbike)
or
in
a
big
air
and
flat-out
whoop
situations
(motocross).
Note:
Not
all
riders
will
find
the
X-Strap
and
the
GP-Strap
necessary.
The
Leatt-Brace
MOTO
GPX
is
compatible
with
all
motorcycle
helmet
types
and
our
design
allows
riders
an
adequate
range
of
movement.
The
Leatt-Brace
MOTO
GPX
is
designed
for
use
on
all
motorcycles
and
ATVs
for
competition
use,
recreational
riding
and
daily
commuting.
The
Leatt-Brace
has
been
tested
by
BMW
Munich,
KTM

the
SABS

African
