Just wondering if anyone here has run a Leatt brace with a roost protector type chest/back plate over the top of it? i.e. have the neck brace still sitting directly on your chest and back, with the roost protector "outside" it.
Backstory is I had a stack about a year ago and broke my sternum. Been riding a bit since, with just helmet and neck brace. Had another small crash a few weeks back and landed directly on my chest... winded myself a little and was quite worried I'd damaged the sternum again (still have pain from the original injury and it's not something I want to repeat). Now I'm certain I want to get a chest protector.
It looks like the standard setup people run is a roost protector with a neck brace sitting on top of it. But my neck brace is on it's biggest setting, and just fits snug. Fitting a roost protector under it would push it upwards too much, and I wouldn't be able to move my head. I'd rather not have to buy a new neck brace too, because I'm a broke uni boi. Anyone got experience with this? Cheers
