Item Details - Moveo Carbon Motocross Neck Brace

Moveo Carbon Motocross Neck Brace

The MOVEO Brace Carbon Neck Brace is a motorcycle protection device that, together with a full-face helmet, reduces neck injuries caused by hiper-flexion, hiper-extension, axial load, shear load, lateral hiper-flexion and whiplash, limiting rotation and transferring excessive load from the neck to the rest of the body, through his rigid frame.

The base of this neck brace model is CARBON, material used as reinforcement of the technical thermoplastic composing the frontal frames and, mainly, as fabric for the AMC Composite, main component of the rear frame. Together with Kevlar, it makes this model one of the lightest and safest motorcycle protection device in the market, reducing fatigue in long trips and improving comfort.

The different coupling possibilities with clothing (velcro, straps, etc) and the innovative flexible hinge design (FHD) lets the user put on and remove this device easily, together with his usual clothing, and allows the use of the MOVEO neck Brace Carbon in your daily commuting and besides, to practice motocross, adventure tours or racing activities.

Thanks to his design, the system fits up to 4 different sizes (S,M,L,XL) without necessity of changing or removing parts. Get yours from GhostBikes today.

SAFETY

MOVEO Neck BRACE helps to reduce neck injuries, both by excessive rotation as per load transfer, that is why it is the definitive answer to the expectations and needs of bikers and motorcycle users.

This asseveration is made after years of research in accidentology and biomechanical studies, to understand in depth what neck injuries are, and how are they produced.

And to prove all the above, MOVEO Neck BRACE has fulfilled the most demanding experimental testing never carried-out before on this kind of products:

• Direct impact on helmet
• Direct impact on thorax
• Multiaxial impacts:
  • Impact testing of a motorcycle driver against barrier (UNE 135900)
  • Motorcycle-against-car impact testing (ISO 13232)
• Biomechanical Criteria Moveo Neck Brace limits the rotation of the head and the forces supported by the neck, aspects studied using biomechanical criteria based on forces (Fx y Fz), flexion-extension Moments (Mcoy), or specific criteria for the neck (Normalized Neck Injury Criterion (Nij) o Neck Criterion Rear Impact (Nkm), among others.
• The best motorcycle protection levels with MOVEO BRACE Moveo Neck Brace achieves a reduction of 30% in Hiperextension values when testing a direct impact on helmet, and an overall reduction of about 20% in injurie values when testing against protection barriers.
• Highly instrumented testing Complex testing methods based in anthropomorphic dummies (Hybrid III and BioRID II) and advanced instrumentation have made possible to record, study, evaluate and optimize the performance of the system.
• Control of excessive load transfer Moveo Neck Brace is focused in the reduction of cervical injuries by controlling excessive load transfer, then limiting forces over backbone.
• Neck injuries The Moveo Neck Brace works reducing the injuries originated by compression, hiperflexion, hiperextension, whiplash, excessive rotation, or by shear forces on top of the neck.
• Virtual simulation. The other reality Thanks to the most advanced simulation methodologies of Finite Elements, different design alternatives have been evaluated, as well as impact situations and materials. Delivering a neck brace of top quality and strength.

COMFORT

MOVEO Neck BRACE is born with the aim of protect users both in their daily commuting, as in their racing, motocross, or adventure activities.

To get this motorcycle protection effective, it has to be given by a simple, light device, able to be fitted without noticing the user, and without restriction of any common movement, both standing as driving.

The special design of the hinge, based in the FHDtechnology (Flexible Hinge Design) allows the movement of the front parts over the rear part of the neck brace in a natural way, adapting the manners of every user.

His minimum weight and his balance over the body of the user, allows to travel long distances without feeling tired.

• Flexibility of Movement The FHD technology will allow every natural movement (raising arms, turn your head, open your jacket, remove your Moveo Neck Brace together with your jacket, access to the internal pockets in a simple way, etc), without needing to remove your helmet or gloves.
• Low weight equals comfort The utilization of the most appropriated technical materials has helped to achieve a final weight lower than market average; 723g for the Carbon version, and 795g for the Dynamic version.
• Proven durability of the FHD technology The elements of the hinge have been tested to fulfill the needs and requirements of every user, beating by far 20.000 cycles in the fatigue tests carried out.
• Comfort based in ergonomic studies This neck brace has been developed taking into account human phisiognomy and his movements. This design has been accompanied with the selection of the most appropriate materials to obtain the freedom of movement shown in the final product

DESIGN

MOVEO Neck BRACE is a neck brace simple in his form, therefore light, manageable and allows freedom of movement.

His small design, mainly in the frontal area, permits an easy monitoring of the board panel and other elements near you, as well as to turn your head in freedom in roundabouts and crossings.

Thanks to the design solutions implemented, this neck brace shows a high versatility and adaptability, been able to fit different sizes of the user and be compatible with other motorcycle protection.

On top, especial care has been put into detail, with the possibility to "custom" the neck protector with different colors.

• Several sizes in a single product Moveo Neck Brace fits different sizes, easily and without additional elements. Simply putting the adjustment screw into the desired size position.
• The best materials In Moveo Neck Brace the most advanced materials have been employed, in order to achieve the best performances on comfort and stiffness. With the spotlight on the carbon Composites of the Carbon version, the elastomeric materials employed in the FHD technology, the ERF foams and the plastics reinforced with fiberglass and carbon employed in the rest of structural parts.
• Biomechanicly thought For the functional design of the Moveo Neck Brace, the internal movement of the bones and muscles of the human body have been taken into account, which allows raising arms and shoulders without changing the relative position of the Moveo Neck Brace with the helmet. More than this, it does not transmit effort directly to the clavicle, reducing the possibility of fracture in the case of an accident.
