SuperMe79 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I'm looking to ge ta back protector to go with my one piece leather suit. I'm aware of the Know Aegis and the Dainese Back Space 1. What do people think of these products? Are there any others? I should consider? My budget is upto £150.http://www.planet-knox.com/SearchResult2.aspx?CategoryID=10http://www.dainese.com/store/eng/scheda_prodotto.asp?cod=1875640 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest akey Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I have a Knox Contour and love it, Willow has a forcefield one.The Knox is about £99 if I remember right. I rate both Knox and Forcefield kit so I would go for either.Make sure you take your suit/jacket and helmet with you, plus if you have more than one jacket take them all, wear the protector with them all and put your lid on as well, then get into your normal riding position to check the fit. This may make you look daft but some back protectors can ride up a bit and push into your helmet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest philgale Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 got knox ricochet, got it for about 80 quid i think from the NEC bike show next year.i had a look at the forcefield ones but they seemed a little bendy for my liking. but may stiffen up when oni have been looking at a contour, think they will protect better than the one i have nowcontourhttp://www.autotrader.co.uk/EDITORIAL/editorial_images/non_imported/5_knox-contuor-retro.jpgricochethttp://stores.sportbiketrackgear.com/catalog/ricochet-seven-male400.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Forcefield Pro L2 for me. Got it from Buster's Accessories for £80.Very comfortable, and fits under my jacket nicely. My jacket has the space for a back protector, but it did not cover the upper or lower spine, only a section in the middle.Horness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
