Leatt do not know how to slow down with<br />
their ideas and evolution for motorcycle<br />
safety products and the addition of the ‘Z<br />
Frame Knee Brace’ to their line of protection<br />
for the notoriously tricky and vulnerable<br />
joint raises an eyebrow or two. The Z-Frame<br />
emphasises a closer feel to the bike and has<br />
hyper-extension limitations of 5, 10, 15 and<br />
20 degree help to limit ACL damage. There<br />
is a slim rugged gear hinge (and the whole<br />
composite chassis is CE certified so will<br />
cope with the knocks and abuse a track will<br />
throw at it) and a specific aim to blend function<br />
and performance.<br />
The Z Frame sits confidently next to the ‘X’<br />
and ‘C’ models in the brace range as Leatt<br />
stretch their minds and R&D data when it<br />
comes to the best structures to assist knee<br />
injury and suit the needs of the rider, whether<br />
budding Pro motocrosser or occasional<br />
Enduro dabbler. The choice of model will<br />
really come down to fit and design preference.<br />
With their pedigree in life-saving neck<br />
protection then it is a brand you can trust.<br />
Expect to pay 300 euros or 270 pounds for<br />
the Z Frame pair.
