Alright here's the deal, I'm new to bikes (just bought my first SV last night) and I'm trying to pick out my gear. I was considering getting one of those airbag jackets, but after reading a lot, it seems the mesh they are made of could melt when you hit the pavement (that would suck). Anyway, I've already picked out some stuff for (tpro shirt and pants), but I need some help looking at other stuff. I figured you guys would have some suggestions.
Here's the catch... I'm BIG on protection. Best ARMOR possible. I had a friend in HS wind up in a body cast only because he was wearing armor, so I'm very serious about its ability to save lives, and the nicest stuff having the ability to really mitigate some of the force.
I am in LA (so I'm looking for something for the summer for now) so I have to be prepared for heat.
Thanks Everyone!
