This is the helmet for your neck.  This is a piece of equipment that you hope you'll never need, but if you do, is definitely worth every penny of the price!  We have been riding with these since August 2007 and is it suprising how little you notice the Leatt brace on your neck - YOU'LL FEEL TONS SAFER WEARING IT!

Leatt Brace does not come in a Large size.  Just Small and Medium.  The Small is generally for riders shorter than 5' 10" or less than 140 lbs and the Medium is for riders over that size.  Each Leatt brace (small or medium) comes with 3 size adjusters to help allow a greater range of riders to fit into the system.  The braces come in the box with the medium size adjuster in place, but can be made larger or smaller by swapping out the adjusters. 

Every Leatt Brace comes with a chest strap that is good to wear if you will not be using it with a chest protector.  If you are wearing a chest protector with the brace, the chest strap is generally not necessary.

The Club model of the Leatt Brace weighs 1.9 pounds and offers the same level of protection as the Sport model of the Leatt brace.  The difference between the Club and the Sport model of the brace is only the material used to make the brace.  The Sport model has carbon fiber incorporated into its construction making the Sport model weigh slightly less - 1.7 pounds.

DESCRIPTION:

The Leatt-Brace™ is an injection produced glass reinforced nylon or carbon fiber and Kevlar neck brace system designed by medical professionals and motorcycle enthusiasts to help prevent:


  • Hyperflexion: extreme forward head movement
  • Hyperextension: extreme rearward head movement
  • Lateral Hyperflexion: extreme sideways head movement
  • Axial loading: compression of the spinal column due to the effect of force on the helmet
  • Posterior hypertranslation: rearward movement of the head/helmet on the neck.
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 Works Riders, the SABS (South African Bureau of Standards). It is also endorsed by MSA (Motorsport South Africa).
