Alpinestars back protector
This is my first back protector. It's too cold to really give it a good try but I tried it under my 3 leathers suits and it feels great. Just wearing it under my suits moving around the house I found it very comfortable, there was no binding at all. Just can't wait for warmer weather to give it a real try out.

Questions
Bonjour, j'hésite entre la Nucleon kr-1 cell et la Nucleon Kr-2 pour une utilisation route et ville. Je cherche a voir les différences entre les deux modèles: protection, confort, sécurité, mobiité ajustement sous la veste et le pantalon. Merci
Le modèle Kr-2 est définitivement amélioré en ce qui concerne confort et ajustements. Si vous auriez mentionné faire seulement de la promenade de ville, le Kr-1 aurait été suffisant. Mais pour tout de plus, le kr-2 est un très bon choix.
