I believe it's the d3o ghost level 1. It is what we provide with our Sara Jane Leggings, so I believe it is. We do have ghost d3o level 2 landing around the 20th Oct as well for an upgrade option if required.
@@christopherhurren629 thanks Chris. I have a lot of questions! If we had to try to relate the drop test to an impact / crash speed (or speed range) what speed would we be talking about? Do you have similar videos for level 2 and perhaps a sneaky vid of any sample,of level 3 prototype laying around? How close does that chalk bundle model bone strength? And in the vein of oils ain’t oils, assuming that a certification to a level implies meeting a minimum standard, does MotoCAP have enough data to be able to show differences in performance of different brands /shapes/designs within certified armour levels? Lol That is probably enough for now. Happy to save some or all of these for the next time we chat face to face, or PM, but when I speak to riders and rider groups, some often equate armour to a magic force field or crumple zone, so putting some sense of what real world realistic degree of protection it does offer might help reduce some risk compensation behaviours that might be lurking in riders riding MO and understanding. For example, I use a talking point that level 2 armour at a full impact of30kmh might be able to reduce what would otherwise have been broken bone to a fracture. It may not be exactly correct, but I think it serves to demonstrate the orders of magnitude of protection offered by rider PPE… (which I use to help underscore the importance then of riding skilfully and safely as primary safety) Thx in advance!
@@robsalvv5853MotoCAP utilises the EN1621 drop test for measuring impact energy absorption. It simulates that amount of force a knee, hip, shoulder or elbow would have striking the ground in a low side crash. This is gravity effects and not forward momentum. We use the fragile nature of the chalk to show people how impact protectors can absorb energy in a crash and why wearing one is better than not wearing one. Just showing someone performance numbers on a computer screen for the normal test is not very impactful. I look forward to a lengthy discussion next time we meet.
This looks fantastic but can their be more effort put into safe female riding gear please. There are so many women turning to riding now. Love the lady models my friends and members of Vespa Club Melbourne ❤ Keep up the good work 👍👏🏻

That chalk clip... verrrry demonstrative. What level armour was that?

It was a level 1 D3O ghost armour from the hip of one of the leggings tested.

Really interesting to know team. Love the video, well put together & clear info to educate all of us motorcyclists!
Great work! :D
