BEST STAND-ALONE ARMOR | MOTORCYCLE PROTECTION JACKET | ALPINESTARS VS LEATT COMPARISON

[@clementebenavides4557]

Between the Alpine Bionic "Pro" and "Tech", witch one would you say its more comfortable??

[@aveerides]

Thank you so much for this video. Basically covered all the ones and just looking at how it is fitting you a decision can be made. Watched a bunch of videos from Revzilla and Rocky Mountain but didn’t help. Keep up the good work man!!

[@Roger_Gustafsson]

Bionic V2 here and it's super nice. Fits well. Bulky and warm protection plates but that's just how it is.

[@cosamuel7182]

Awesome review. I'm in the market for one of these for ADV / street use after watching a video from the dude from the RIDE Adventures channel where he breaks down what he wears on an ADV ride. I have always hated how much the pads in my jacket float around. I have larger, slightly baggy jacket to accommodate layering up/down per the weather. That means pads that float and never seem to be in the right spot. Seeing folks go this route with pads in a mid-layer makes so. much. sense. Seeing a side-by of each is awesome. You must have shelled out a pile on the credit card to get each sent to you to try like this. The video is dark, but there are plenty of good photos and marketing demos out there. What you are saying is what matters and the audio is 100%. Solid video. Thanks for posting it.

Fantastic info. Armor shirts confuse the heck out of me. So thanks for the info!

[@mrbjay5443]

That Astar V2 you will love! That large is too big for you. That Leatt is nice! Great video. Thanks for showing us!

[@MobMoto]

I kinda fancy the Leatt

[@orangelion03]

Good summary! I've been wearing For Racing Titan armor jacket for a few years, but recently decided to change/upgrade. Thought the Fox was too warm in hot temps, really bulky, and didnt like the (weak-ass) zipper down the middle (I had the older model with the long back protector and integrated kidney belt...cut the back protector lower panel off as it went way too low and I could not get my pants to stay on without wearing suspenders). I went with chest/back/shoulder unit with separate elbow pads as these allow a heck of a lot more airflow. Liked the back protector and overall design on the Alpinestars Bionic, but the Leatt 4.5 Pro fit my slightly sunken chest better. Wear it over Klim Aggressor Cool long sleeve. If it's hot out, I wear an old Fieldsheer mesh/cordura jacket (for the pockets man!) or a mesh jersey. if it's cold, I layer up, topping it off with an old Axo cordura jacket with zip-off sleeves and lots of zipper vents. Just bought a Fly Terra Trek to try out.

[@MobMoto]

I reallyt like the Leatt gear myself! Thanks for watching

[@adventuremulemoto]

Your timing is amazing. I am going through the change to body armor as well. I will keep my Klim heavy stuff for commuting. Everything is in the research stage right now and your video helped. Thanks!

[@MobMoto]

Thanks brother

[@jereg1791]

The UFO ones are very nice as well, definitely consider if in the market. They also make a MTB one that is identical protection wise but the fabric is lighter if you live somewhere hotter..

[@RideOnTwo]

Adv Mule said it right, timing is perfect. I have been thinking of something like this, I have chest and back protection but have been looking at something like that or I may just get elbow pads. Thanks for the run down!

[@MobMoto]

Thanks brother

[@Indictedheart]

You should give your height and measurments for people to understand your sizing

[@verdonrocksphotography3510]

I am using Leatt for downhill MTB and I love it, nice overview, thank you, cheers V!

[@MobMoto]

I really like the Leatt gear its pretty good stuff!

[@CaptMaxADV]

Nice dude! I'm pretty behind the times on getting proper protection. If our Baja trip showed me anything, after buying those ridiculous jeans in the blazing heat (IN November No Less!) is that I need some proper breathable protection! Thanks for putting this together, I'm sure I'll get one of these in time. Solid work bro.

[@MobMoto]

I think theyre good options, the question is how long will it last? Thanks brother!

[@DizzyBone3030]

Really appreciate the review and probably going with the Leatt Airfit.

[@mikesbigadventures194]

I use a Leatt 3DF AirFit Body Protector under a Klim Tactical Pro jersey. The over top I have my Klim Carlsbad with the integrated armor taken out. Very comfortable and I have all the options. Leatt is level 2 on back and chest level 1 on shoulder and elbow. The tactical jersey provides a bit of extra skid protection and padding on the forearms. Of course if I’m not going off road, I use my Klim riding jeans with integrated CE 2 knees and an Alpinestars Hyper Drystar for my street only gear. With a CE 2 back protection added to the jacket. Another great video brother.

[@MobMoto]

That Leatt gear is pretty sweet. Thanks for watching.

[@ADV_Agenda]

Love the review!!! I'm definitely buying the leatt

[@stevendilnott4399]

turn the lights on bo/

[@SourPatchPuss]

For the Leatt, if you want a little more protection try the AirFlex Body Protector. If you want even more try the 3DF AirFit Lite Body Protector. More you ask? 3DF AirFit (non lite) Body Protector. No way… you want even more? Ok… 3DF AirFit Hybrid Body Protector.

[@airadaimagery692]

Are the breathable, good for hot summer months?

[@2wheelsandatent]

Great video and overview. Nice and informative with options and the good & bad perspective I love it!

[@MobMoto]

Thanks brother

[@redhorsegarage]

Any thoughts or experience with "Forcefield Rib Protection V2" I am looking for something to wear under my Klim armor jacket. Good post!

[@MobMoto]

No I haven't had my hands on the Forcefield gear but it looks like a good option.

[@rays9033]

Great video. You riding a KTM? Still use this armor, if not, what’s your goto for protection?

[@MobMoto]

Honda and ktm. Im still running the Leatt.

[@rays9033]

@@MobMoto Awesome, thank you!!!

[@agro1942]

What height and weight are you and what size is that 3df lite? S/M or L/XL? Looks like a good fit

[@MobMoto]

im 5'9" and 155 lbs, i was wearing mediums and that's what I wear in regular clothes.

[@airadaimagery692]

Trying to decide on some body armor... Which one is most breathable for the hot summer months?

[@MobMoto]

I feel like the big chest pads make for the hottest ones. I like the leatt but that chest piece is hot, so I wanna remove it to get more airflow.

[@airadaimagery692]

@@MobMoto excellent! Thanks for the response.

[@skiddysm]

Good video! Keep doing this!!!!!

[@torquecanyon8424]

Your video is quite dark bro. We couldn't see much the difference.

[@deeswiggins4331]

What's your height and weight, if you don't mind me asking? Looks like the medium was a good fit for you. I'm 5'11" and 138 lbs. I usually buy size small in every thing.

[@MobMoto]

5'9" 155 lbs I buy medium tshirts.

[@deeswiggins4331]

@@MobMoto I ordered a small Alpinestars Bionic action V2 and it showed up yesterday. It fits really well, but I wish the mesh part of the shirt was a bit longer to prevent the velcro strap from rubbing bare skin on my stomach occasionally. But otherwise, it's a perfect fit. Softer material than I expected too.

[@ostumbling]

good info. but turn on a light dude. I can't see the gear

[@nogoogle6349]

Best damn review

[@nogoogle6349]

I had to subscribe

[@81722Les]

love your beard bro!!

[@MobMoto]

I dont know that you can call it that. Lol Thanks brother

[@JohnTaylor-rb1rv]

Thanks for the great reviews. Was the Bionic Tech V2 you tried a size large?

[@MobMoto]

Medium size in the Bionic Tech V2. Medium fits me the best for the Alpine stars

[@danielkantha]

@@MobMoto could you tell your chest size, upper body length and total height in cm?

[@happygiraffe9787]

I get a feeling the loose elbow pads would move out in a slide and leave your naked skin against the road

[@MobMoto]

A Cordura shell is needed as an outer layer for road protection, the same as a jacket with armor.

[@JoshStreetDesign]

The Alpine Bionic V2 is a lawsuit waiting to happen. No one reviewing this thing mentions that the chest protector DOES NOT stay in place, it moves up, WAY UP. As soon as you bend down and slightly forward (riding position on dirt bike) the chest protector comes up and jabs you right in the throat. The first time I bent down with this on I was shocked as I felt like someone karate chopped me right in my Adams apple. My throat still hurts 2 hours later as I'm writing this. I cannot imagine if I crashed and my head came forward, the chest protector could easily crush your windpipe. This should be pulled form the shelves immediately. Horrible design.

[@andypacmanperez]

😂😂😂 I should not have laughed at you this hard

[@Roger_Gustafsson]

I've been using it for a year or more and it sits great on me. No decapitation have occurred despite numerous falls.

[@peetairsh]

Hi, how is the leatt holding up? Im thinking about removing the pads from my jacket and get this leatt instead for more protection offroad. Was it comfortable on longer trips? Was it hot compared to a padded jacket?

[@MobMoto]

Its holding up pretty well. I am careful not to stretch it out when taking it off. Its feels good even on longer rides, and it breaths better than anything I've had, but it is sweaty under the chest and back pad because of the armor.
