Bought this suit with the intention to track this year but haven't had the time to get out even once
Suit is basically brand new. I wore it ONCE around the block to see how it fit (wore underarmour with it).
Suit is Black/Red
52Euro/42US
I find the Taichi stuff fits people with athletic builds best. This suit fits me like a glove... I'm 5'10" tall and weight 170lbs with an athletic figure.
I can take a pic of me with it on if anyone wants to see it...
Also, for reference sake, I own and wear a 52/42 Dainese Leather Jacket.
Before I bought this I tried on 4 different brands (Astars, Dainese, Spidi, Teknic) and this one was hands down the most comfortable. I was able to get it on and off without any help unlike the others.
SBTG sells it for $950 but with duty/taxes/shipping/gas money/etc... my asking price comes out cheaper. I am not making money off this... my loss your gain.
Asking $1,000 obo and I'll include the Knox Contour back protector ($170 value). Please don't low ball me. I will keep this suit if I don't get asking or close to it.
Features:
Leather: Brazilian Cowhide Leather
Fully perforated suit
Flex Panels in Knees, Lower back, & Shoulders
Schoeller Keprotec stretch Kevlar in inseam and sleeves
CE approved armor
Removable Liner
MFJ (Motorcycle Federation of Japan) Approved. (MFJ is the strictest standard in the world)
Neck Hump (no air channels)
T-AIR Shoulder Sliders (Prevent body rolling during a crash. Allows the shoulder to slide, rather than leather catching and causing tumbling
Neoprene on back of neck for comfort
Double layered leather in elbows, shoulders, knees, and hip to thigh
Triple stitching in places that need extra strength.
