When it comes to protection, MTB riders are too often forced to choose between exposure to the trail's spiky dangers and an overheated, heavy, and restrictive ride. But, let’s face it, it’s better to wear a Mountain Bike chest protector than to realise too late that you need one, particularly if you’re an aggressive rider who enjoys fast and rough descents. With this dilemma in mind, Leatt developed the incredible AirFlex Stealth body protector and protection tee so riders do not need to trade comfort for safety.
The main benefit of this Leatt MTB body armour is the Leatt AirFlex technology. The Airflex stealth protection range uses Airflex impact gel rather than 3DF impact foam. A thinner layer of AirFlex impact gel can be used to achieve similar protective levels to impact foam. Thanks to this, the protective padding can be thinner, lighter, and more breathable. This means the Airflex Stealth Leatt MTB body protector and tee are super slim, cool, and light while offering CE-certified impact protection.
The tee and MTB chest protectors are manufactured from anti-odour, moisture-cool, and air mesh-wicking fabrics. They have a full-length zip-up compression sock design for maximum evaporation. They even feature an elastic chest strap to keep the protector in position when the ride gets bumpy.
The result has been riders reporting a surge in confidence on the trails without compromising comfort. Of course, the stealth also features the brace on™ neck brace fitting system, so therefore our MTB body protection fits perfectly with a Leatt brace.
