    I've had mine for 2 years and it is holding up very well. I ended up sewing on an extra 8" extension of actual loop Velcro on the kidney belt and it was the BEST thing I could of done to modify it for my fat gut. I didn't replace it, I just sewed it right on top the old one and with extra length. I've crashed multiple times and I also took a branch to the chest, saved my bacon. I typically wear large, I ordered XXL.

    Good thoughts... I have knees and elbow protectors and I need a chest / back protector. I don't have the money for the super expensive ones right now.. Its just for field and trails motocross/enduro so no great stuff and no races...
    I'll buy a much better one for road riding when I get my licence....
    Always thought these Chinese ones would be okay for basic motocross

    I’ve had mine for over a year and it has saved me many times. Velcro isn’t good, zippers are not great, but it’s $30! Will buy again for sure. Make sure you buy one size bigger than what you think you need.

      If you can't attest to the specs, features or experience of *when IT matters*
      Armour is meant to protect, Not a fashion show item!
      You want to know how it performs be it protecting from bruising from a fall or saving broken bones and/or life after a funky crash.

    I have one of the first one's you showed, I've had it for a year and have tried it out a lot, for $35 you can't go wrong and it looks just like the FOX one as my mate has one and he paid $185 for the FOX. If it last you 2 years and you need to but a new one it is very cheap insurance from rocks, stick, scratches.

    It works great. At first I bought it because its better than nothing but it held up pretty well. My advice though is to replace the zipper with something bigger and add some extra stitching to some parts to add on to its durability. I really like how I can just place a jacket over it pretty neat.

  • @TNTMOTO
    @TNTMOTO 6 років тому +6

    Great video. I had the same one as the first one you had. If you are on a budget it offers ok protection for the regular rider. The plastic pieces were about 1/2 the thickness of the Fox. If you ride fast and hard, you are better off to put out the extra dollars and buy the Fox for much better protection.

    I bought one 2 years ago from your first review. I liked it but it was very restrictive and it doesn’t offer neck brace attachment. I wore it for about 1.5 years. I bought a leatt chest protector about 6 months ago (150$)I’m very happy with it. This is however a great option for a tight budget or someone just starting out. Great review rado! Any chance u could do a updated gear video on what u wear for moto and what you wear for trail? Maybe pick a few things out that you want or have been looking at and have us do a poll on them. There are a ton of guys that have gear questions. Me personally I wear leatt chest protector and neck brace. Fox titan pro knee guards. Ls2 helmet,100% accuri goggles, Fox comp 5 boots. Also good socks and underpants are a must to reduce chaffing and sores. O ya for gloves I’ve been wearing mechanix brand impact gloves and they have helped my hand fatigue a bunch. Also they offer some protection for the knuckles.

    One thing is how it looks and how it holds together over time but I§d like to know how it actually protects compared to more expensive branded gear. Those Chinese things dont even have certification. Prices are great but if I'd break my back because armor is weak I'd regret saving some money.

    I have a problem, here is too hot to wear armor but to gnarly to don't use it, and once i'm stuck in the rocks wrestling the wr450 just drains my life out. I've tried roost protectors and body armor jacket the roost protector without my camelback are ok but on this hellish weather I need to bring 4 to 5 litter of water. So I almost give up safety to avoid another deadly heat Stroke. I'm prone to overheatting most of my friends don't suffer heat. i'm very frustrated, going down on a gnarly rocky hill with heat stroke is 20 times more dangerous than just than just not wearing the armor to keep up.

    It's odd. I used my leatt 6.0 armor for my e scooter. It goes up to 40 miles per hour.
    Anyways last week someone try to break into my home. I was awake and got dressed into my full bmx body gear. Pulled out the only weapon I had. (Kitchen knives.) Called the police. Either ways I feel like that cheap Chinese armor it's much easier to put on than what I have. Also last year summer. I wear it for fending off raccoons.

    This bike was really easy to assemble ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though - the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700x25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.
