Leatt Neck Brace 5.5 Junior – Black for Body Armor

The choice of so many junior riders all over the world, this LEATT 5.5 JUNIOR NECK BRACE is the most adjustable, most comfortable, and most durable brace available.

Wearing this personal protective equipment will allow younger riders to push themselves to their limits with 89% less chance of sustaining a critical cervical spine injury in the event of a crash. NOTE: For very small riders, it is impossible to make a large platform neck brace and still fit it on a very small body. You should, therefore, go for the LEATT FUSION 2.0 VEST with an integrated neck brace.

Feel Protected And Ride With Confidence

As used by Leatt Athletes globally, the LEATT JUNIOR 5.5 NECK BRACE is the class leader and the choice of champions in Moto and MTB. It is lightweight, fully-adjustable, and manufactured from a slightly heavier composite reinforced polyamide matrix platform than the carbon fibre 6.5 model. It has proved, in independent lab & rider testing, to reduce neck forces and neck injuries through transferring the load during an accident away from the small, fragile bones in the neck and into the strong muscles of the body instead. Statistics also show that collarbone injuries are up to 45% MORE likely WITHOUT a neck brace.

CoreFlex Split Rear

Developed with an engineered collarbone cut-out to keep your helmet rim away from your most fragile bones the youth-sized LEATT 5.5 NECK BRACE includes an optimal helmet rim striking platform designed to redistribute neck forces and provide rider helmets with freedom of movement. A CoreFlex split rear folding thoracic strut is designed to work with the body’s natural movements for a more comfortable fit and will break-away before applying excessive pressure to the back.

Emergency Release Mechanism

A low-profile, push-button open/close system makes getting in and out of the brace a fuss-free experience. Additionally, the sliding front and rear SureFit adjusters offer 3-way adjustability for fine-tuned perfection. An easy-to-use emergency release mechanism is also included for times when the whole front of the brace needs to be removed. Any object with a flat solid surface can be used to turn the emergency open screw. After the screw has been turned the brace can be opened from the left side as well.
