Leatt neck brace

The Leatt-Brace(R) GPX Club 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
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 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(R) 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(R) GPX Club 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(R) 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(R) GPX Club is compatible with all
motorcycle helmet types and our design allows riders an adequate range of
movement. The Leatt-Brace(R) MOTO GPX is designed for use on all motorcycles
and ATVs for competition use, recreational riding and daily commuting. Leatt-Brace(R)
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).
