Fitting a Racesafe Body Protector

Here is the how to guide to measure up for your Racesafe body protector:

1. The starting size, based on your chest measurement.

• Over light clothing, place a tape measure close up under the arms & measure the fullest part of the chest.

• The correct size should be a snug fit within the adjustment available from the side, without being too tight or restrictive. 

2. The correct fit option, based on your body length. 

• From your natural tipping point at the front (approx 1" below the ribs), up over the shoulder & down to the level point on the back.

• The correct fit should ensure the foam segments at the front are long enough to cover the bottom ribs, whilst not being too long to restrict movement.

3. The correct back option, based on your back length. 

• Take a back measurement from the C7 vertebrae (prominent one at the base of your neck) down to where the body protector should finish.

• Sat in the saddle, measure down to approx 3/4 finger width clearance above the seat.  

• The correct fit should provide both lower back protection & a full range of movement, without the saddle interfering.

Here is the size chart to work out which size will suit you best, if you are in-between we can have a body protector custom made to suit you.
