Originally only available in black, now riders can choose from white or lime green too.
Developed with help from Relentless Suzuki MX star Jamie Law, the Warrior protects the upper body with CE- approved back, lumbar, chest and shoulder protectors and features a radical 3-part shoulder system that allows total freedom of movement.
At the core of Knox protection is a naturally strong hexagonal honeycomb that gives advanced impact protection yet is lightweight and breathable. It acts like a crumple zone, absorbing massive amounts of energy from an impact, keeping the wearer safe. Both the back and chest protector meet the European EN1621-2 standard and the elbow guards meet the requirements for EN1621-1.
Knox understand that safety wear needs to be comfortable, otherwise riders will soon discard it and ride unprotected, so they have fitted breathable spacer fabric on the back protector, which also has pinhole ventilation, to disperse body heat when working hard.
There is adjustment on the arms, shoulders and waist, for a precise fit.
The Knox Warrior Harness is produced in sizes Small and Large (measurement details are available from the Knox website or at your local Knox Premier Centre) and options are available for use either with or without a neck brace, both retailing for £149.99 inc. VAT.
