Body Protectors

[S_N]

OK, so I have never owned or worn a BP - I've always side stepped the issue due to my size. Yes, I am aware how stupid this is! However, I am not as big as I was, though still big, but after my fall last weekend and lets face it lucky escape, I think it would be wise for me to get one. However, I have no idea about them and no idea where to go to get fitted. Not only am I larger than the average rider, but I am also taller than the average female, with a long back. Does anyone have any suggestions please? Thank you!

FInd a racesafe or Rodney Powell stockist, as they can mix and match or make to measure

I would reccomend treehouse, they are really friendly and helpful. Got my racesafe from them, used to refuse to wear a BP but don't even notice my racesafe.

I've got an XL Champion Cobra body protector. It's a bit bulky but quite comfortable when on. I don't use it as it's too long in the back for me and someone has given me another one (not that I use that one either, but I think I might). I've only used it a couple of times. I don't suppose you can wait until September and I'll take it to the UK with me

Racesafe, treehouse will make one to spec for you

Where abouts in the country are you? I know a RP fitter in Derbyshire

I hate my RP BP for the first few minutes, but it saved my ribs last week when I landed on my side (at a walk - Dizz slipped on the road

, she's okay

).
