Review on πŸ”’ Alpinestars Nucleon KR-2i Men's Road Back Protector Insert, Black, Medium: Ultimate Safety and Comfort on the Road by Doug Ellingson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great addition to the T-GP Plus R Air jacket

I got these to replace the foam padding in my Alpinestars T-GP Plus R Air motorcycle jacket and as expected it went straight into the back jackets. Pocket. It circulates air just as efficiently as my jacket. So when I'm not wearing my jacket or standing at a traffic light for a long time, I don't even notice the presence of this back protector. This is thick rubber. , so it might not be the best protective gear in that regard. I think it's a great compromise if you want a cool (temperature) setup that offers extra back protection. I'm very happy with it and while thankfully I didn't have to test the profile's capabilities in a crash, if I crash while riding it makes me feel better knowing I have it.

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
