Hi

Can anyone recommend armour for women or that isn't to bulky on the 'chest' please?

Many thanks

Fern

Hi and welcome.

I have seen some advertised that has a removable chest protector which, to be honest, isn't really that necessary for trail riding anyway.
I can't think of a specific manufacturer at the moment but will have a look later. The pressure suit type seems to be popular as that is like a perforated jacket rather than bits of plastic linked by straps.
I understand it is really there to prevent impact from roosting by the rider in front in mx or enduro.

I was trying to be polite and helpful and create a pleasant welcome mag :o
Not sure about the face mask - especially at lunch time.

Just found this ladies armour for sale on the KTM forum - Chawnz is a Kent TRF member.

Just noticed the Topic title - I guess amour was a typo as there are plenty of lechers on here if you're looking for love (one has just posted his vision by the looks of it) :D :D

Is that a Yorkshire euphemism for something else or is it polishing.


Sorry about the degeneration of the topic Fern.
It happens most times. :D
