 KP Racing Services are the exclusive UK and Ireland importers of the Leatt® Neck Brace system, designed to reduce upper spinal injuries and whiplash. The neck brace has been designed by medical professionals and motorsport enthusiasts to help prevent:
- Hyperflexion: extreme forward head movement
- Hyperextension: extreme rearward head movement
- Lateral Hyperflexion: extreme sideways head movement
- Axial Loading: compression of the spinal column due to the effect of force on the helmet
- Posterior Hypertranslation: rearward movement of the head/helmet on the neck
The neck brace system works in four ways - foam padding helps to absorb energy, the brace composites flex to slow movement, the brace can collapse using a friction slider, and in extreme impacts the brace will fracture in a controlled manner, absorbing energy and reducing injury. The neck brace is specifically designed to prevent the head/helmet from projecting over
the brace (a documented problem in more basic collar devices), therefore preventing a highly damaging fulcrum action.
KP Racing Services offer the neck brace in two sizes - small and medium. Refer to the Leatt® sizing chart to determine which size of brace you need. We offer the full Leatt® range of styles, to fit all types of motor sport and budget.
We also offer a full range of Leatt® spare parts, official Leatt® accessories and a complete Leatt® brace service-and-repair facility to make your old brace as good as new!
