Is it a group that wears it or a group that does not wear it?
Whether or not to wear a protector while riding a bike
I think there are many people who are worried about this.
Nowadays, as summer approaches, people tend to wear lighter clothes, so they wear protectors as a set.
I feel that more people are purchasing them and are becoming more safety conscious.
However, protectors only reduce the risk in the event of an emergency.
It is an item and there is no obligation to wear it.
One thing that people who wear it often worry about is where is the best place to wear it.
As we deal with this situation, we always tell people that the injuries that can be fatal are
Since this is an injury to the chest and spine, priority should be given to wearing it for safety reasons.
We recommend a chest protector and spine protector.
Therefore, we have reviewed the protectors currently sold and handled by Kadoya, including their safety.
I would like to introduce it to you.
chest protector
From above
・TAICHI HELINX separate chest protector (men's)
・TAICHI TECCELL chest protector (ladies)
・TAICHI TECCELL separate chest protector (men's)
All are CE standard level 2, but the TECCELL type is lighter and easier to wear when installed.
It is safer because there is no gap in the center.
spine protector
・CE LEVEL1 BACKBONE PROTECTOR
elbow/shoulder protector
・AIR SLIM PAD/ELBOW
・AIR SLIM PAD/SHOULDER
A thin and lightweight model that has cleared CE standard level 1.
It has ventilation holes, so it is recommended for summer punching and mesh jackets.
・CE LEVEL2 ELBOW PROTECTOR
・CE LEVEL2 SHOULDER PROTECTOR
I often have the impression that when I wear a protector, it feels stiff and uncomfortable.
I think many people have it, but it has a three-dimensional shape, so
It doesn't bother me as much as I thought it would.
We also have new inner protectors this season , so be sure to check them out.
You can also try it on by actually attaching the protector to the jacket.

Of course, safety is never better, but choose the right one that suits you.
Enjoy your bike life to the fullest!
