Title: alpinestars bionic jacket? Post by: gearhead400 on June 05, 2007, 10:06:50 PM Has anyone worn this type of protective gear? I have seen them in a lot of magizines and they look like they provide better protection, a tighter fit, and more comfort. They seem like it has a lot of back support which is great.
If no one has one of these or any other brand i'll buy one anyway and give a review, they look better than a regular chest protector. http://www.rockymountainatv.com/productDetail.do?navType=type&webTypeId=37&navTitle=Protection&webCatId=4&prodFamilyId=17607 Title: Re: alpinestars bionic jacket?

Thats my biggest concern. I cant imagine breaking my back so im trying to take all the steps to prevent it....minus hitting big jumps ::) I was looking in a few of the magizines and they have those new spine protector deals and it looks like that is built into these jackets so i figured i'd just get all the good stuff in one. ;D thanks for the responses guys.
