FAQs
What does CE - Cat. II - EN 1621.2/2014 Level 2 certification mean?
This certification indicates that the back protector has passed rigorous testing for impact absorption and protection according to European safety standards. Level 2 signifies a higher level of protection compared to Level 1.
How do I know if I need a G1 or G2 back protector?
The size required depends on the specific Dainese jacket model. G1 is typically for smaller sizes or shorter jackets, while G2 is for larger sizes or longer jackets. Consult your jacket's product manual or Dainese's sizing guide.
Can I use this back protector in any motorcycle jacket?
The Pro-Armor G2 is designed to fit specifically into the back protector pocket of compatible Dainese jackets. While it might physically fit into other jackets, it is recommended for use with Dainese apparel to ensure proper fit, retention, and certified performance.
How often should I replace the back protector?
The protector should be replaced if it sustains a significant impact, shows signs of damage (cracks, tears), or if its protective properties are compromised. Regularly inspect it for wear and tear. If in doubt after an impact, it is best to replace it.
Is the protector waterproof?
The materials used are water-resistant to some extent, but the protector is not designed to be waterproof. It is crucial to allow it to dry completely if it becomes wet before storing it.
What is the 'fractal structure' mentioned?
The fractal structure refers to the intricate, branching pattern within the protector's material. This design increases the surface area, which enhances breathability by allowing sweat and heat to dissipate more effectively.
Troubleshooting
Protector feels stiff or uncomfortable
Allow the protector to break in by wearing it for short periods. It will become more flexible and conform to your body shape with use. Ensure it is correctly inserted in your jacket's pocket.
Protector does not fit correctly in the jacket pocket
Verify that you have the correct size (G1 or G2) for your specific Dainese jacket model. Ensure the protector is oriented as per the manufacturer's instructions and is not folded or twisted within the pocket.
Reduced breathability or increased heat retention
Ensure the perforated structure is not obstructed. Check that the protector is clean and free from debris that could block airflow. Proper integration within the jacket also aids ventilation.
