The truth of this claim is obvious to anyone who has ever had a mountain bike crash. Of course, you should never ride the ever-increasing number of bike park and flow trails without <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bike-discount.de\/en\/brand\/leatt\/protectors\/\">protective gear<\/a>. After suffering a serious fall in Belgium at the beginning of this year, I took a particularly close look at the range of upper body protectors and tested the combination of the new LEATT Airflex protector jacket and the LEATT Neck Brace 5.5 neck protector over the past few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"998\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex-150x100.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1260\" height=\"838\" src=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex-1260x838.jpg\" alt=\"Leatt Neck Brace 5.5 &amp; AirFlex\" class=\"wp-image-2669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex-1260x838.jpg 1260w, https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1260px) 100vw, 1260px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/leatt-neck-brace-and-airflex-body-protector-review\/#more_bike_park_safety_%e2%80%93_with_the_leatt_airflex_body_protector_jacket\" >More bike park safety \u2013 with the LEATT Airflex Body protector jacket<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/leatt-neck-brace-and-airflex-body-protector-review\/#more_protection_for_neck_and_spine_%e2%80%93_with_the_leatt_neck_brace_55\" >More protection for neck and spine \u2013 with the LEATT Neck Brace 5.5<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/leatt-neck-brace-and-airflex-body-protector-review\/#my_verdict_on_the_leatt_protectors\" >My verdict on the LEATT protectors<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"more_bike_park_safety_%e2%80%93_with_the_leatt_airflex_body_protector_jacket\"><\/span>More bike park safety \u2013 with the LEATT Airflex Body protector jacket<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Finding the right protector jacket is not easy, especially for women. With my &#8220;old&#8221; jacket, I even had to opt for a child&#8217;s version, as there were simply no fitting protectors for women with a size of 1.68 m and 53 kg. Fortunately, this has now changed and just like other manufacturers, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bike-discount.de\/en\/brand\/leatt\/\">LEATT<\/a> has also launched a women-only protector shirt. It&#8217;s called Airflex, and it is of course also available with similar features as a men&#8217;s version. But us ladies simply have different anatomies and need our own cuts. I tested an XS size jacket and a S\/M size neck brace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"998\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"LEATT AirFlex Body Protektor Shirt\" data-height=\"998\" data-id=\"2655\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/leatt_airflex_body_protector_shirt-2\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt-1260x838.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt-1260x838.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Mesh.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"998\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Mesh-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Mesh-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Mesh-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Mesh-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Mesh-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"LEATT AirFlex Body Protektor Shirt Back\" data-height=\"998\" data-id=\"2661\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/leatt_airflex_body_protector_shirt_mesh-2\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Mesh-1260x838.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Mesh-1260x838.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a02 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The first impression is very good, as you would expect from LEATT products. The items are impeccably manufactured and come in high-quality packaging with additional info material for basic adjustment. The protector jacket consists of two parts, the first being a full-zip jacket made of lightweight, top-ventilated mesh material with integrated shoulder and elbow protectors. These are removable, making the jacket very easy to wash. It fits snugly around the body and doesn\u2018t slip, only the elbow protectors could be somewhat narrower for my thin arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Protector.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"998\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Protector-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Protector-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Protector-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Protector-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Protector-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"LEATT AirFlex Body Protektor Shirt\" data-height=\"998\" data-id=\"2663\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/leatt_airflex_body_protector_shirt_protector-2\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Protector-1260x838.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Protector-1260x838.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Strap.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"998\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Strap-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Strap-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Strap-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Strap-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Strap-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"LEATT AirFlex Body Protektor Shirt Straps\" data-height=\"998\" data-id=\"2665\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/leatt_airflex_body_protector_shirt_strap-2\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Strap-1260x838.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/LEATT_AirFlex_Body_Protector_Shirt_Strap-1260x838.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a02 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The second part of the protector jacket consists of a chest and back protector that you can wear underneath the jersey together with the jacket or on top of it if you prefer. The Airflex protector jacket is designed to work in both ways. The back protector is slightly longer at the bottom and thus offers optimal protection with integrated ventilation. The chest protector is also cleverly ventilated and made to suit different female body shapes. At the sides, it can be individually adjusted directly with hook fasteners under the arm and with Velcro fasteners under the chest. I am still somewhat restricted in my movements after my last crash and therefore have problems closing the hooks under the arm myself, so I have to ask my bike buddy to assist me. The part on the shoulder might just have been a little narrower in my opinion. Initially, you could be afraid that the wide strap might disturb you on the descent, but fortunately it&#8217;s not the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:66.78768%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex_Action2.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"998\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex_Action2-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex_Action2-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex_Action2-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex_Action2-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_AirFlex_Action2-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"Leatt Neck Brace 5.5 &amp;

The LEATT neck brace concept has been the same for many years and it has been developed to perfection. In the event of a severe fall on the head, the full-face helmet hits the brace and is slowed down in its movement, thus preventing overstretching. The forces of the crash will be distributed over as large an area of the upper body as possible, instead of acting on the smaller bones of the neck. Thus, not just injuries to the cervical spine can be reduced, but also the collarbone injuries that are a familiar occurrence among mountain bikers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"998\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"Leatt Neck Brace 5.5\" data-height=\"998\" data-id=\"2667\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/leatt_neck_brace_5-5-2\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5-1260x838.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5-1260x838.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_Back.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"998\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_Back-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_Back-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_Back-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_Back-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_Back-1260x838.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"Leatt Neck Brace 5.5 Back\" data-height=\"998\" data-id=\"2673\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/leatt_neck_brace_5-5_back-2\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_Back-1260x838.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Leatt_Neck_Brace_5-5_Back-1260x838.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a02 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be fitted straight to the protector jacket by means of small loops (on the shoulders of the chest\/back protector) and therefore does not slip at all.

However, I always use one in the bike park! For many reasons. After various shoulder and back injuries, I simply want to minimise the risk of damaging my collarbone and cervical spine. Nevertheless, and quite honestly, you need to get used to the new and different &#8216;riding feeling&#8217; with a neck brace first. The neck protector from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bike-discount.de\/en\/brand\/leatt\/\">LEATT<\/a> is perfect in this respect. It is lightweight, optimally ventilated, easy to adjust and in fact only minimally impairs your freedom of movement. Included in the delivery are also the transparent chest straps which allow you to adjust and fix the Neck Brace as required, even without the loops of the protector jacket. The user manual that comes with the neckbrace gives a step-by-step description of how to adapt the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bike-discount.de\/en\/brand\/leatt\/neck-braces\/\">neckbrace<\/a> and tells you how much room you need for head movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div
