swear by the 661 body suit - looks after my back, kidneys and the fish net tight suit makes me look good also  ;D

I've got a Dainese pressure suit.

It's very comfortable with no seams or pressure points. I wear it with a compression Tee shirt top, ie skins, 2XU etc.

I've had one big get-off on a rocky track and the gear proved it's worth. The scars on the armour (and boots, knee guards, gloves, helmet) proved it's effectiveness.

The compression top is supposed to help with breathing and recovery but what it does do is help to keep me cool. I wear the pressure suit over the 2XU top with nothing else. This keeps me comfortable in 30+ degrees and humidity over 90% even when we are in stop-start type riding while setting tracks etc

Hi Marc, do you wear a neck brace?
I've had a dianese for about 15 yrs and only had one zip replaced. Get a suit/armour where the back protector and kidney belt zip off the rest of the armour. That way you can mix and match with the neck brace and the rest of your ensemble. Check with Suzuki43 about matching fishnet tights; he'll point you in the right direction.

Yeah Suzuki43 is the man to ask on that score, he has grown his hair a little longer lately.... you can hardly recognise him  ;D

I can't put my finger on the exact reason why that piccy is so wrong. It's just wrong.
Did you get it off 43?
