guys in your personal opinions is it worth buying a spine protector or just get good chest armour and wear a kidney pack, Or is a presure suit a better option like the 661 ?

I have a thor chest protector (quadrant) but was just wondering what you guys would recommend.

Thanks  :thumbs:

I love my 661 pressure suit, and I fall a lot   :rofl:

The one piece suits like the 661 are easy on easy off. I have one and love it. The one draw back is with the turtle back shell for the spine if you wear a tool belt or water belt around your waist it will slide down on your butt. I now carry my tools and water bottles in my back pack. This is not a problem for a day ride but if you pack for multiple day rides the weight factor gets with the added stuff in your pack can really be felt.

I got my Fox Airframe in today and its pretty sweet. appears to have a nice amount of padding in the right areas and not too heavy

i love my airframe, i say just keep what you have and if your that concerned, get a kidney belt and a leatt brace or something

was wondering if the 661 had a kidney belt built into it as I couldnt work it out ?
