Product description
CE-approved motorcycle armor is designed to provide enhanced safety for riders by absorbing and distributing impact forces during a crash or fall. These protective gears are tested and certified according to European standards, ensuring a high level of reliability and effectiveness. Here's a breakdown of the typical components included in a set of motorcycle armor and their specific purposes:
Components of Motorcycle Armor
Protects the shoulder joints and surrounding areas.
Usually made from impact-resistant materials like high-density foam or hard plastic.
Safeguards the elbows, which are highly susceptible
Designed to stay in place and provide coverage without restricting movement.
Can be integrated into a jacket or worn separately.
Often features a multi-layer design for better shock absorption.
Constructed to provide both protection and flexibility for riding comfort.
Thigh Pads:
Constructed to provide both protection and flexibility for riding comfort.
CE (Conformité Européenne) certification indicates that the product meets European safety standards. Motorcycle armor is generally classified into two levels:
Level 1: Offers adequate protection for low-impact crashes. It allows a higher level of transmitted force but is lighter and more flexible, making it suitable for city riding and short commutes.
Level 2: Provides superior protection with a lower transmitted force threshold, ideal for high-speed riding and longer journeys. It is typically thicker and slightly less flexible than Level 1 armor.
•Material: Look for materials like viscoelastic foam, hard plastic, or a combination of both. These materials are designed to absorb and dissipate impact forces effectively.
•Fit and Comfort: The armor should fit snugly without being too tight, ensuring it stays in place during an impact. Adjustable straps and ergonomic designs enhance comfort.
•Ventilation: Adequate ventilation is crucial to keep the rider comfortable, especially on longer rides. Look for armor with perforations or breathable materials.
•Weight: Lighter armor is generally more comfortable but might offer slightly less protection compared to heavier, more robust options.
