Overpriced but overall ok product

I liked this product it's very comfortable to drive and looks decent I think but the price is ridiculous I see $150 maybe but $230 isn't value. Money I have found better protection for the price elsewhere. You pay $100 for this POC brand. It feels like I wish it had more back protection. I fell with this part, it's ok but I wouldn't recommend it myself, I'll be back

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Negative gift

Wrong Size - Misleading Messages

Wrong Size. At mi size 1.75, the big one is too big and the middle one is too small. In the end left the average. It's also advertised as 'adjustable' for skis and mountain bikes, but no ski straps are provided. The elastic bands are too big for the size of the mounting clip. I'm not sure if this is "on purpose" or a bug. However, this complicates the setup. However, it is comfortable and hopefully offers good protection. Conclusion: It could have been much better with a few additions/changes…

Pros
  • Practical Item
Cons
  • Some Small Things

price protection. money and sweat!

I bought this to continue riding after a serious chest injury. Cons: Unfortunately too hot for trail riding! The bib is actually a rubber panel on the front of the chest. In extremely hot and humid conditions, you sweat in vain because air can't get to the sweat, evaporate, and cool it down. It's also a bit heavy, I weighed size L/XL on an accurate scale, just over 3 pounds. Pros: great fit, weight isn't very noticeable, just warmth. Gave confidence when riding with injuries. I really believe…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Safety

You pay for the name

fit is good comfortable but a bit heavy. It's actually very expensive for rubber, and elastic bands don't last long. I have many other POC devices that are really good, but I think it's a failure. I am sure that sooner or later I will have to make new belts. Update: Finally able to use this product. One swipe and it doesn't really protect you that much. Although it covers your entire spine, the elastic straps cause it to loosen on impact, and I took quite a bit of damage across my shoulders…

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • hard to tell
