Ultimate Safety for Young Riders

The LEATT 2.5 Junior Chest Protector is an essential piece of gear for young riders who enjoy the thrill of personal electric vehicles (PEVs) like electric scooters, unicycles, and bikes. As speeds often exceed 30 km/h, the importance of reliable protection becomes indispensable. Engineered with the advanced 3D design and adjustable waist belt system, this chest protector ensures not just optimal safety but also a comfortable fit for our young riders. Max Blinker always emphasizes that safety should not be compromised, especially when it comes to the joy of riding PEVs.

Riding with Confidence and Safety

Safety can't be overlooked when pushing the limits of high-speed riding. The LEATT 2.5 Junior Chest Protector is CE-tested and certified according to EN14021 (Chest Protectors), offering substantial protection to the upper body. Notably, around 70% of serious injuries in PEV accidents occur in riders without protective gear. This chest protector dramatically reduces the risk of severe injuries, ensuring young adventurers can focus on having fun, knowing they are shielded from potential harm. Remember, staying safe means you get to return home to your family safe and sound after a thrilling day of riding.

Leading-Edge Design for Maximum Protection

Crafted with precision in Cape Town, South Africa, at the Leatt® Lab, this protector undergoes rigorous R&D processes led by Dr. Leatt, a neurosurgeon turned inventor. The protector features a hard shell design with specific cutouts to accommodate a Leatt Neck Brace, enhancing both frontal and rear protection. The BraceOn™ system ensures that the neck brace stays in place during any impact, providing full-spectrum protection to young riders. The padded base layer prevents skin chafing, while the body-hugging fit allows the protector to be worn over or under a jersey.

Unmatched Comfort and Flexibility

Wearing protective gear shouldn't come at the cost of comfort, especially for young riders who spend hours on their electric scooters or bikes. The LEATT 2.5 Junior Chest Protector is designed to offer exceptional comfort without compromising safety. The adjustable waist belt system provides a customizable fit, ensuring the protector stays securely in place during intense riding sessions. The lightweight design, approximately 550g, ensures that young riders can enjoy their activities without feeling burdened by heavy gear.
