Whether racing or riding on the street we know that a major issue is Heat. Protection, by definition adds bulk and usually insulation which makes those hot rides (and races) even hotter. So our new initiative - Bohn SYSTEMCOOL integrates materials that handle heat efficiently to make your riding cooler, more comfortable and safer. This is a new version of the ProRacer using an exclusive brand-new hi-tech breathable foam material, KonformAir. You can pour water through it, and in fact some racers may soak it before a race! Evaporative cooling will remove heat from your body as it evaporates. In addition to a unique color scheme and carbon-texture leather trim, in addition to solid carbon fiber which is set inder the spine and shoulder pads. Our Highest Protecting and Coolest Protector!

Tailbone Protection: Highsiding happens suddenly and catapults the rider up in the air. Often he lands in the same sitting position on the tarmac! The Proracer tailbone protection helps cushion this impact. Additional length is needed to wrap around the butt for when you are in the riding position. As the backing material is flexible you do not notice it
Pros: I have owned this back protector for 4 years now, and the condition is still like new. The shoulder straps are adjustable as is the waist strap. The design seems to be more to absorb impact rather than prevent backward bending movement, but it does a decent job of that as well. The tail bone protection does tuck nicely into jeans or extending into your 1piece suit. If you are considering this protector it is likely because of the perforations to keep you cool, and for that it does a great job. Bohn is known for their protective products and this is why, after 50+ uses in weather from 60 - 100 degrees it has never disappointed me.
Cons: Small plastic adjusters on shoulders can get annoying if not placed flat when jacket is zipped up, but this is a minor gripe.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
