Fits my skinny arms well. | | Weaknesses: | Zipper pulled out after 2 rides. Fixed under warrenty, but that took most of the summer.

$164.00 | | Purchased At: | Randall Scott Cycle Company | | Strengths: | REALLY comfortable, protection where is counts for me (back), breathable. LIGHT, manuverable | | Weaknesses: | Doesn't have as much protection as some other brands (dainese, thor impact rig SE)- lacks around the sides, shoulderblade and collarbone. Doesn't have detachable fore-arms like the rockgardn, but I think it's actually more comfortable. | | Similar Products Used: | tried out dainese, thor impact rig and rockgardn - Tried on 661 - pretty weak protection wise; didn't ever use. | | Bike Setup: | Modified Gt idrive 5 | | Bottom Line: | If you're looking for medium/light protection for fast/tech riding where manuverablility and comfort are a concern, then this is a must. If you're going for big drops and still want to stay reletively safe, then get something more heavy duty. In my experience, rockgardn, dainese (if you have the $), and the thor impact rig SE all have great protection for more extreme stuff. I do more technical singletrack stuff as opposed to drops, so this worked great for me. This is the BEST for my type of riding. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
