As I'm closing in on the last things I need for my riding gear I'm doubting what I actually would need. As a newbie I'll be just doing single track most of the time. I'm looking to either combine an Alpinestars A1+ or Bionic Chest Protector with a BNS PRO neck brace or Leatt 4.5 with a GPX 3.5 neck brace. It's a tough decision because I'm obviously unsure how my experiences will be. Is the rib protection a must? What made you lean to the gear you now have? Enjoy your rides! 🤘 -
I need help finding Alpinestars Tech 10 LE Nations Boots 2018 (red, white, & blue) in a size 12. I have not been able to find anyone who is willing to sell. I would really like to buy these to give to my boyfriend as a present. He has been looking for these for so long. If anyone knows someone with a pair in a size 12 that is willing to sell please send them my way. They could be new or used as long as they are in decent condition. If anyone knows any places I could buy them at also let me know. Thank you so much! -
Hi there fellow addicts !Hope you are all staying safe during this crazy time ! New to trail riding I am gearing up for the season and I am trying to make a decision between the ALpinestars A-10 and the Leatt 5.5 Pro HD. I have both in my hands right now and I can say the Leatt definitely offers better coverage on the back and side that will not shift out of the way when needed most. But it has little venting despite what they say in their literature. The A10 wins hands down in the venting department !! BUT to me the side plates and back plate being secured by elastic and having gaps between panels means it can slide out of the way defeating the whole purpose. I have read every review I can find, watched every video around and I am still on the fence. If the Leatt had more venting I would not hesitate. The Leatt offers a ton of Protection and fits like a glove but my concern is it will be HOT as hell. Looking for first hand experience, comments, advice, suggestions or feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

Has anybody used the Fox Racing Raptor Vest Roost Deflector for under the jersey? Should I just get the Alpinestars Bionic Roost Deflector its CE level 1 for shoulders, front, and back and the fox chest protector is CE level 2 for front and back but not the shoulders. I want an under the jersey chest protector that has the most protection but isn't to bulky. -
I've been having a bit of trouble finding out one small detail at all of the retailers' websites & was hoping someone on here might be able to chime in with the answer. Some sites use different terminology, but I'm looking to just confirm if any of the less expensive Alpinestars boots (below Tech-8) have the inner "bootie". My last pair of Tech 8's had them, and I know the Tech 10's do...it's something I definitely want with my next pair. Thanks!

Can you name the model of these old MX boots?
Force10 posted a topic in General Dirt Bike Discussion
My son pretty much stopped riding after getting a jobs where he works weekends...and an ambulance ride out of Hollister Hills didn't help either. Anyway...he has a schedule change at work where he has weekends free for the time being. He was wearing this old pair of Alpinestars boots that were given to me by a friend...but a couple straps are broken. I'm not going to buy an expensive new pair of boots for what could be one weekend back on the bike for him. I'd like to search ebay for some straps but without the model of boots it's difficult. Here's a pic...these aren't the actual boots...just one I found of what we have: If I don't have any luck, I will just duct tape em' on where the straps are missing. Thanks! -
Does anyone where I can get my Tech 10 boots resoled in the Charlotte area? I know I can send them to one of the places online that repairs them and sends them back but I would prefer to find a local shop. Any help would be great.

Well I just got my XR400R (aka Ranger) converted to DC, added a horn, stop light, license light and mirror then took it for inspection last Saturday. It passed just fine DESPITE the inspector stating that I was missing a bunch of stuff (like turn signals and hi-beam). Told ya ... I know the regulations straight from DMV dude. So now that I have it ready to ride, I decided to bite the bullet and order a complete adventure setup with all the armor. OUCH! Hurt the balance but it will be more than worth it. Went with the AS Andes V2 with the nucleon back, chest and hip inserts. I'll update my thread once I receive it and let everyone know how it fits and works together. They state that the sizes run small so I went super big on the size (2XL jacket 3XL pant) to make sure that there is plenty of room for me, my clothes and the padding. Some selling points - the jacket zips to the pants across the back, waterproof liner, thermal liner (removable), removable protection inserts (all CE approved) and good venting that will keep you cool in the summer. I'm really looking forward to getting it all and trying it out So what adventure gear are you sporting?
