PRODUCT INFORMATION

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, forward	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 (street and off-road) 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).
