The Leatt® ADVentureTM is an injection molded, glass reinforced nylon, neck brace system, designed by medical professionals and motorcycle enthusiasts to help prevent the following extreme movements:
head, foward - HyperFlexion
head, rearward - HyperExtension
head, sideways - Lateral HyperFlexion
spinal column compression - Axial loading, due to the effect of force on the helmet
head/helmet, rearward on the neck - Posterior HyperTranslation
features A L P T™ - Alternative Load Path™
Alternative Load Path Technology®
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(R) is to bring the head to a controlled stop. This is achieved by providing a padded rigid structure that acts as an alternative 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 using alternative load path technology.
The design of the Leatt® ADVentureTM 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® ADVentureTM works with most types of body armor and chest protectors. Over long distances, the Leatt® ADVentureTM will also offer some relief from neck fatigue. The Chest-Strap (for upright riding position) included with the Leatt® ADVentureTM is designed for the rider who may experience big air and flat-out whoop situations (motocross). Note: Not all riders will find the Chest-Strap necessary.
The Leatt® ADVentureTM is compatible with all motorcycle helmet types and our design allows riders an adequate range of movement. The Leatt® ADVentureTM is designed for use on all motorcycles and ATVs for competition use, recreational riding and daily commuting. 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). The Leatt® ADVentureTM is available in following two sizes.
Small and Medium . To determine the correct size of brace for your body, please use the following rough fitment guide: Small: 4 - 16 years old (thin build) Medium: 16 years + (average to bigger build)
