Does anyone know any bike shops within 2hours which stock good dh bike kit as I'm looking at getting a leatt brace and want to try one on before buying one?
Cheers

Best bet may be to ask Hotlines the distributor, where your nearest dealers are, then to contact a few of them to see if they have stock :)

Which one are you thinking of getting?

Alpinestars has a alternative which seems to do the job as well.

I have decided that I am going to get the Alpinestars Bionic Neck Brace,
Now it's Time to bring out the hack saw and try to get the pressure suit to fit ;)

Thats the problem. I've seen a lot of guys removing the upper three shells of the back protecter but I dont think thats the way to go.
I would like to have the brace but including new armour its quite an investement

Well there seems to be allot of people that have modified their neck braces to fit snug with there pressure suits so i may give this ago as i like the thought that i have body armour on to protect me.
