The size of the brace should be correct for your body shape and allow for adjustability to ensure correct tment and
comfort. When correctly adjusted and worn with your helmet, the 5.5 / 6.5 neck brace should allow for a full safe
range of a rider’s head and neck movements (i.e. looking up, looking down and looking side-to-side, such as when
performing an over-the-shoulder check); the 5.5 / 6.5 neck brace and the helmet must come into contact with
each other as the full safe range of normal riding head movement is reached. (5a)
If any resistance or discomfort is experienced when attempting to complete the full safe range of head and neck
movements, or if the brace does not make contact with the helmet when the full range of movement is reached,
further adjustment, or an alternative size of 5.5 / 6.5 neck brace may be required. In extreme circumstances, it may
be necessary to purchase an alternative model of helmet in order to achieve the required level of compatibility and
safety.
If the brace interferes with any of the above mentioned, please move on to the adjustment section (p6). Please ask
the retailer or contact Leatt
®
if you require further advice on sizing, adjustment or tting.
Check that you have the right helmet rim clearance. Please use assistance to do this measurement, do not do
it yourself. Place a ruler in the middle of the upper rim of the brace at 90
o
to the ground, with your head in a
neutral (level) position (5b). Remember to do front and back. The helmet rim should be within the zone of optimum
eectiveness (5c)
Please ensure that the brace wing tips are correctly aligned over your shoulder as shown below:
