Good choice!!! I have the same one th DBX Comp and i have let people try it and one guy has the Alpinestars one and wished he had saved for the Leatt so much more adjustable and athought they take some getting used to i wouldnt leave home without it now! |

How do you find your brace at Danbury? I find it a-tad irritating when you need to look up and can't but thats the only downside . |

I haven't yet ridden Danbury since i bought it (Will be testing it there sunday!) I have been to FoD, Chicky and BMX tracks with it and it took a while to get used to but i think its also depends on the set it up as i have changed it loads. Have you dropped the back plate?? Do you use the straps with it?? I dont have any issues really with looking around when standing or on the bike. |

It might not necessarily be the wedge in the back plate as i have mine in. Might be the back plate thing that your head touches when you look up. If you lower that more it might give you more head room when on the bike. Here is mine when i first set mine up....changed set up since then too... |

Thats not a problem mate, if you want next time your down Danbury i can adjust it for you! Its just those bolts on the back and the wedge piece that makes the difference. |
