Need a Neck Brace for XC

ClaytonWhit
I purchased a cheap EVS neckbrace/protector at the begging of this season. Its pretty uncomrtable and really limits your range of motion and is very annoying to ride in. I race XC and am looking to get a better one. What is everyone else using? I know the Leatt ones are good and ive seen some of the Atlas ones as well. What is the best one for the money? Thanks

I'm looking into neck braces too. Never owned one, went in today to get sized. Seems like they're roughly the same price (about 300) and the top brands seem to be least, alpinestars and atlas. Any thoughts?

I ended up with a leatt 4.5 it Ran me about 300 and it’s great. Had t for two seasons now and now I’m running the GNCC and a local series. Works great, great movement and very light

Another vote for Atlas, they are so popular in my area none of the local shops carry Leatt. They've all stopped carrying them because everyone just buys the Atlas.
