Hey guys, i'm truly thinking of purchusing a neckbrace. Before i go out and buy one i have a couple questions about them.
1. Who rides with one?
2.Are they any good?
3. Can you still wear a chest protector while wearing a neck brace?

Any thoughts would help me out alot.

1. I don't.
2. They CAN save your life in a crash and limit injuries.
3.With neck rolls you can and some chest protector company's make a protector that can accommodate the leatt neck brace.

I was thinking aboutt he EVS EVO RC for $170. But everyday it seems like they are pushing the release date on them. Getting a little ridiculous, I was all about the leatt brace, don't have one yet, but it almost seems stupid not to ride with one. Anyway I didn't want to spend $390 if I didn't have to but it doesn't seem like the RC EVO's are ever comming out...

Chad Reed, Kevin Windham, and tons of other pro riders where them. if you go on the leat brace website they tell you all about how they can help you.
