so i have been looking at getting a vest to wear over my jacket or body armour so i can get to gear without taking off a bag etc ie tools snacks and so on here is two options im looking at so if any of you have any ideas pro or con let me know
option one

option two

so have a look and let me know your thoughts
That second one should come with a Stop/Go lollipop for directing traffic at roadwork zones 😉
haha yeh its a bit bright but dose come with a you rip it we will fix it for free and its nz made but the black one is made for moto enduro and has a hydration backpack built into it im not sure if i want safty or to go down the cool looking road
Quiet clear what my choice would be……..
There is a black version of the high vis one.
Yeh I have the black version in med it won’t fit over my ridding gear and can’t be adjusted I think I’m steering towards the purpose made one and as its only realy when I’m off road I don’t think hi vis is that important
Personally, I would go a backpack.
Still have the riding jacket and the versatility.
You are still going to remove the jacket to get at gear when stopped unless it is just the front part, likely not! and you will be stopped most of the time anyway when you actually require something? So why not just take off a pack?
I do use just my jacket and a backpack during the colder months but want to use full body armour during summer but still have minimal equipment with me so I thought a vest would be best and I learned to ride with body armour and tactical vest while in the army so I do find it comfatable
