The Fox Racing Youth Airframe Chest Guard provides CE Level 1 certified impact protection for both chest and back through Koroyd insert technology. The lightweight, low-profile construction conforms to the body whilst maintaining breathability and flexibility during movement. Adjustable shoulder straps and waistband accommodate growth and different body shapes, with fast-action buckles allowing quick fit adjustments. Removable collarbone and upper chest pads provide optional additional coverage.
Performance Benefits
Certified Impact Protection
CE Level 1 Koroyd inserts in the chest and back meet European safety standards (CE EN 1621-2 for back, CE prEN 1621-3 for chest), providing verified impact absorption during falls or contact with the bike, handlebars, or other riders. This certification means the guard has undergone standardised testing to confirm it reduces the force transmitted through to the body during impacts, offering measurable protection for young riders.
Maintained Breathability
The Koroyd insert material allows air to pass through rather than trapping heat against the body, helping to regulate temperature during physical riding. This breathability becomes particularly important for young riders who generate significant body heat during motos and are more prone to overheating than adults, helping maintain comfort throughout riding sessions.
Unrestricted Movement
The flexible Koroyd inserts and low-profile design allow the guard to move with the body rather than restricting motion. Young riders need full range of movement to operate controls, shift body weight, and maintain balance—rigid protection that inhibits these movements can actually compromise safety by limiting their ability to react to changing conditions or maintain proper riding position.
Accommodation for Growth
Adjustable shoulder straps and waistband with fast-action buckles allow the guard to be sized appropriately as children grow, extending the usable period before requiring a larger size. This adjustability also means the guard can be fitted over different thickness base layers depending on weather conditions, or tightened to prevent shifting during active riding.
Body-Conforming Fit
The low-profile construction follows body contours rather than creating a bulky, stiff shell that sits away from the torso. This close fit means the protection remains positioned correctly over vital areas even during aggressive movement, whilst the conforming design makes it easier to wear jerseys over the guard without excessive bulk or bunching.
Reduced Fatigue
The lightweight construction minimises the additional weight young riders must carry, which becomes increasingly important during longer riding sessions. Excess weight causes earlier onset of fatigue in developing muscles, potentially compromising control and increasing injury risk—lighter protection means children can ride longer whilst maintaining proper form and control.
Adaptable Coverage
Removable collarbone and upper chest pads allow parents and riders to add extra protection in areas particularly vulnerable during falls, or remove them for reduced bulk when riding in less aggressive conditions. This modularity means the guard can be adapted to different riding situations—from practice sessions to racing—without requiring separate protective equipment.
Quick Fit Adjustments
Fast-action buckles on the shoulder straps and waistband enable rapid adjustments without complicated mechanisms that young riders might struggle to operate independently. This ease of adjustment means children can make their own fit corrections between motos or as they warm up during riding, promoting independence whilst ensuring proper protection positioning.
