Any suggestions on Body Armour for Enduro race? Need neck Protection as well.
@@kylemnoble Ya think these have enough padding on though? wheres ya femur?
I’ve just purchased the Troy Lee rock fight CE armour , I had a crash a week before and suffered a concussion even though I was wearing a trail helmet .... bought a full face and had another crash and broke ribs and hurt my hip .... full face was brilliant though 🙄
@Concrete Head are you sure that's correct I can't imagine two T-shirts offering the same protection as a back protector with shoulder it's something that I've been thinking about with friends coming off breaking shoulders colour blonde and even necks.
@@steezeysteve747 sounds painful did you break your ribs even though you had on your body armour?
@@BOTG_Adventures no I purchased the armour after breaking my ribs ...I’m still very much a closing the stable door after the horse has bolted kinda guy 😊
Thank you! This is the only video review for these shorts on RUclips, and it is a very thorough one 💯
I've been using impact shorts for a long time for motocross, hair scramble, and mountain biking. They are worth their weight in gold, but my old ones have seen their better days. These are on my wish list.
Looks very good protection and I’m glad you put a smiley face in the shot thanks again 👍
Great shorts.
I use the Fox Titan armour, built for motor cross so definitely substantial enough for most crashes. It’s heavy, but with that comes a feeling of security and protection . I have had many off’s and crashes and the armour has saved me a world of pain.
Thanks for making these types of videos!
Glad you like them!
I am a bit older than you and also started to feel nervous so after loads of research bought those shorts plus the TLD 7855 top.Nice and comfy but best to wear a t shirt under to help removal.Happy with both choices plus my Bell Super 3R convertible helmet
Does the top offer good protection as I really wanting some shoulder and back protection.
I recommend the LEATT
PROTEKTIONSSHIRT 3DF AIRFIT. Since you are having elbow pads the shirt is enough. It is really comfortable but also quite expensive.
Thanks for the shout out! Two weeks since crash and just getting miserable. Everything seems to be going OK but I would say just to big myself up 😂 it was a bit more than XC ....the drop was pretty technical my skills were definitely too XC for it though 😂
Hope ya get better soon mate.
@@BOTG_Adventures trying my best 👍🤕
MTB Derbyshire Boots told me about you yesterday mate, I broke 4 ribs and ligament damage to my shoulder last Sunday up Hemlock stone, no where as bad as yours hope a speedy recovery to us both all the best Danny another Derbyshire Lad lol👍
You too bud couldn't remember ya name... Get well soon.
@@dannyfitz409 injuries are certainly no fun! I'm typing this at 5.45am on a Sunday morning coz I can't sleep. Fingers crossed for a full recovery Daniel 🤕👍
I use the Leatt GPX 5.0 3DF every time I ride my E-bike, in Enduro or Downhill competitions. Is extremely comfortable. Or just having fun all day.
Yes always good to be padded up, hip bones take most of the brunt when landing on your side.
thank you!
I like the review
Thks friend
Your welcome.
I have triple 8 protection shorts which have thick but soft padding. Guess it is not hardening on impact. With 48 on BMX Race I crashed hard after a jump and assume they saved me from hospital. Still had pain and swollen muscles but after a day it is getting better. The more the better on hips for me. I will check this out and also trying to find a good level 2 protection short for learning big jumps. At 48 it’s always a week of pain after a crash
Got these shorts recently and i would agree with what you say. They are almost not noticeable when they are on. Hopefully i don't actually ever need to test them out properly. In terms of the upper body i went with the almost matching Leatt 3DF Airflex Stealth Body Tee. This is a bit more cumbersome on the back and feels like it needs a little bit of adjustment around the shoulders, the material is similar to the shorts in that it stretches and fits snugly.
This one? Very expensive wow. - www.chainreactioncycles.com/leatt-body-tee-airflex-stealth/rp-prod190798?gs=1&sku=sku751397&gclsrc=ds
Hi Andy oh I so agree with you mate … we don’t mend very well with age lol but me and my lad been also looking at more protection and both thinking same make as you got they give some really good ratings being looking at back . But can’t decide if a t shirt or a backpack…. Evoc do some good backpacks thanks for the info I’ll be in for some shorts cheers Andy 🤘🏻
I'm still looking for the upper body protection I want something that will give me a back protector as I'm entering an enduro race and I'm sure I'll be riding outside of my capability when the adrenaline is running
@@BOTG_Adventures morning Andy mate yeah me n me son been looking and so far it’s leatt for a t shirt protection or if it’s with a backpack thinking evoc but your more wanting a t shirt protection …. Lol brave lad trying a enduro can’t wait to hear how you get on with that mate good luck 🤞🤘🏻
Hi Boots enjoyed the vt , built-in mum protection would be good so you don't have to double up as over heated plums aren't good 😉 what ya think 👌
I tried these again at the weekend with a bibi underneath and my mountain bike trousers over the top got back to the house and was a little sweaty but very very comfortable while riding.
Dunno why i'm saying i but your voice is alpha af. You could play as a gleeman in some sort of lotr series with that voice :D.
Really? Wow I'm. Flattered thanks.
With all this boby armour your getting looking more like
Darth Vader everyday 😂
Maybe complete the outfit with a light sabre 😉
Usful bit of kit on the canal on a busy Sunday.......
All good fun.
May the force be with you 😉
Protection is so important on rides, look a good set of shorts those for just under £90. We all going to look like American football players when on bikes, worth it though
Hey thanks for the vid, any reasons why you choose the 5.0 over the 4.0 with chamois?
For body armor I suggest staying with leatt as they are the best fit with there neck protection.
Hey mate, yes the 5 has a cokic not sure how to spell it. and it came recommended by a pro rider i spoke to.
Great review man! Do they come with seat padding?
No padding on bum
@@BOTG_Adventuresis there some padding in the crotch area though like a traditional chamois
Leatt Sweet e bike protection.
😏
Hi, Why shorts for mtb or downhill dont have cups for protecting the groin. Thankyou.
Not sure mate. I suppose while cycling they would be uncomfortable on the seat.
These look ace I must say the only thing is its not got a bum pad like in my endura shorts wich is a waste of time for me as I don't really want to put another set of shorts on with a pad then the actual shorts. Plus if I go getting another slightly thinker under short that means I gotta replace all my endura shorts all over again wich is very very expencive as ive got about 5 pairs. Think these are aimed at motocross rather than mtb. Nice undershorts though.
I agree it's a shame there is no padding in the bum area at the material that is very stretchable and very well ventilated so it could be possible to actually just buy some inner padding that will fit underneath shorts
The Leatt 3DF Impact Shorts 4.0 comes with the padding/chamois (but it doesn’t have tailbone protection and upper hip protection); the 3.0 and 5.0 don’t have any padding.
Hey bro nice vid, ive been debating this a-lot recently. Like you put it we are not young lads and we don’t heal as well. My friends take the piss out of me for wanting body armour, i have 2 bany daughters and i had a bad illness that made me loose a kidney so if i have a bump and damage that im
In big trouble. Ive looked at all body armours unless you are doing uplift then a solid zip up one like fox titan etc is abit much all day. I would say for type of ridding same as me need comfort i think the only option is troy lee soft armour removable pads one thats what im getting. That is very upsetting to hear of fellow ridder had bad crash i hope he is ok and healing up it sounds really bad. All i will say is i feel like abit of a tit with a full face when the kids laugh at me but ive been hospital and its a real real shit time so everyone should feel comfortable to wear as much protection as it takes.
Don't let anybody take the piss out of you for wearing a full face or body armour. I was riding alongside a friend at walking pace while we were talking and he happened to hit a small tiny rock fell over to the side was a we were laughing and he broke his elbow on a small stone as he went over requiring a fracture and a pin.
This was a very very slow speed injury so imagine if you were riding full speed down here really gnarly hill, it would be all too easy to break an arm leg a collarbone from fortunately your neck so why take the risk if you can wear some padding or body armour that will reduce injuries in a sport that we loved it makes perfect sense.
Being off the bike with painful injuries for 6 to 8 weeks just because I didn't want to wear a jacket is laughable.
I'm in a different position to you I'm single I live on my own and I have only one member of family. Who would look after me if I was injured?
@@BOTG_Adventures id send you some pies bro
I have kneepads from g-form. How are these shorts in combination with your kneepads?
Shorts are great and fit just short of where knee pads go, so very good, they do make my skin itch after riding though.
i saw there is an optional tailbone protection that comes with the shorts, but i cant see it anywehre. does it have any tailbone protection ?
Yes but a small one.,
Will these protect the tailbone well? I'd like to dual purpose them for snowboarding
Yes there is not a big one though.
@@BOTG_Adventures Thanks, and have you tried wearing knee pads with them? I have some Leatt Airflex Pros, not sure if they'd stay on properly with the length of these shorts.
Good review. Question: do these short replace underwear or do you wear underwear underneath them?
Yes they replace underwear. TY
Hello. Can not understand. If my jeans size is 35-36, should I buy XL or XXL shorts?
xl
@@BOTG_Adventures thanks!
How is the protection on the butt? Is there any protection? All the best, Christoph
None there is a cocksic (not sure spelling sorry) protection.
is this more worth it than the 3.0? About to purchase the 3 cuz cant find the 5 in my size
I wear mine all the time now I love it. It dosnt have padded bum area though.
@@BOTG_Adventures you have both 3.0 and 5.0?
A great upper body is the Troy Lee Design 7855 Armored shirt with long sleeves that has the same elbow pads as the ones they sell separately that are sewn into the garment. About 147 British Pounds
I don't do much mtb anymore. But thanks anyway.
Can you use knee braces with these shorts?
Knee braces you mean shin pads with knees?
They look great but too expensive for just CE Level 1 protection. I'll just get riding pants with CE Level 2 armor if I find a reasonably priced ones. I was actually going to buy them but thanks to your video I know they are not for me.
💪🏻😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃👍🏻
They are lightweight and you won't know your wearing them. Let me know what you end up buying.
@@BOTG_Adventures Have you done little test falls to check them out? I mean like taking a dive onto your side in your house on the floor. I'd do that and then on the front. Right now I'm buying as many Oakley Airbrake MTB goggles because they are 50% off right now. I recently got the Leatt 4.5 in the 80's colorway; so beautiful in person I want more colors before they are gone. I have some facial injuries (broken nose, broken two top front teeth; not riding related) will be getting surgery in hopefully one month so won't be riding for a bit, omg I just realized I won't be able to put on a full face helmet for months!!! 😭 on the bright side I can at least wear a half helmet ⛑. Well I just searched for several minutes and it seems currently these are the best option. I'll wait a few months to see if Leatt drops something new. If not I'll be getting these. 💪🏽😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃👍🏻
I came off a 30ft drop at weekend.. No marks at all saved my hips.. Knee was badly cut open.
@@BOTG_Adventures omg! Glad you're okay. I hope knee protection is on your shopping list brother! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@BOTG_Adventures hey man just read your About tab; smart move including you're looking for work. I definitely recommend reaching out to the online gear shops in your country. They're always looking for people that use and know the products to be customer service reps. Look into whatever parks management your area has; apply to the jobs and take the exams. In the meantime, take whatever you can and best of luck. As your channel grows in a few years you'll make good money just from the product reviews. 💪🏽🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑👍🏻
Is it friendly with female body structure as well?
Yes unisex
Great!
33 inch, size M or L? thanks)
M
Can be used with a cup?????
Why would you wear a cup on a mtb?
It has testicles protection?
no, ya ball bag should be on the seat :P
Ahh. I am watching this video as a 51 year old inline skater who's looking for some hip protection but does not want tortoise pads especially in summer.
They are really comfortable.
@@BOTG_Adventures Thanks for the info.
@@BOTG_Adventures Thanks, I just purchased a pair on Amazon.
@@BOTG_Adventures I got my pair in the mail today. They fit great and feel great. Seems exactly what I was looking for. Unless it rains I will wear them for my skate tomorrow.
*UPDATE:
Just to update on sizing, I wear 34" most of the time and can get away with 32 in some things.
Large fits well, not overly snug but not loose. Think I could have got away with medium and will have to see on a ride if they are tight enough on the sit bones to avoid rubbing.*
Hi, I can't quite hear if you say "actual large" or "extra large" for the size you bought. I'm about the same size, all be it with more cake storage above, leatt suggest large but I know their sizing can be different to most brands.
Cheers
Hey mate i meant Large. and Im medium build, 5ft 11
@@BOTG_Adventures found a pair on eBay the other day in large, find out next week if I'm as fat as leatt think I am
@@cornishcactus lol we all in same boat.
