Genuine? or fake..A*

[Danity]

Yeah ive been looking at getting a neck brace...Heard alot of good things about the Alpinestar Bionic neck brace. Most shops have it advertised for around $800.00 AU, But i just found this on ebay for $320.00 AU + free postage. Just wondering if they were genuine? Maybe thats all theyre worth and ive just been looking at ripoff prices...
Cheers.

Hmm strange...On my screen it says "free shipping" $320.00 total price.
Anyways...It looks the pretty much the same as other A* neck braces i seen.

Ha..Oh my bad..For some reason it logged me outta Egay..
Still a sheet load cheaper then other sellers.

Looks like the real deal but I don't know. Seems a bit too cheap to me.

I paid $800 for my Alpine Stars one but that was a year ago now. Good choice on the AS one. Shit's all over the Leatte.

Oh a new one hey? Should be just as good as the old 1 you'd think? besides the price difference..
Yeah i realized its not out till December...but thats only a month and a half away.

 

[Hillz]

yer i would say exactly the same as old one just made out of plastic no carbon n shit liek the OG one

i know i will be putting my order in to BTOsports if they are expensive to buy though the OZ distrubutor

I wonder what you sacrifice for the reduced price?

The idea is to stop the neck compressing on impact. Would definately help for downward force. Just not for side to side impact.

 

[roost666]

side to side impact is all i have been affected by and it worked pretty good, i only use it till i get the $$$$ to get one of these A* braces.

Better off using one of these than noting at all and for $50 it would prob be one of the best and cheapest bit of safety gear ive bought
