Be more patient than me Bob, TB’s working on it. Understand first that these are my opinions from the research i conducted

10 points
1. They wont protect you in every situation neither will helmets condoms and airbags. Depends on the impact force.
2. They work as claimed
3. The features the manufacturer claim to reduce the risk of injury are valid if the device is worn properly
4. Having had access to Leatts research papers I believe their device to be very well designed tested amd manufactured.
5. Experiences of OBT”S who have had big offs while wearing them back up what I found.
6. They will distribute force onto your sternum which will be sore afterwards, you will know that because your not a cripple. You have to remember the chest gets compressed massivley under cpr, we may break your ribs but at least your still alive.
7. They do restrict the range of movement of your neck – good in a prang bad in tight up hill down hill stuff
8. Bob is a wanker
9. They wont break your collar bone . This breaks because your first action in a prang is to protect yourself by throwing your arm out to break the fall, your clavicle breaks from the impact not the brace.
10. Would I wear one – seriously thinking of buying one particularly as the price on them has come way down

NOTE: ONLY the Leat brace was tested I cant verify other brands. Soft collar type devices were shown in some literature to be of minimal effect in reducing injury.

So they don’t transfer any load onto your collar bones in a crash?
