i just got my 2010 661 vapor suit, but looking at the Serpa...i wish I hadnt'. that suit looks like exactly what I need..
I'm quite impressed with this suit... it's amazing! it was between the POC and the Kali... the Kali is the least expensive..

That thing looks sweet, very interested in picking up one but cant find a sizing chart any where. What size kali are you using compared to what size 661 suits you have used in the past? ---thanks

I did, but I didn't find any pics. There are few other products on the market told to compatible with LB, but the reality is different.
Waiting for pics, though. Thx.

Sorry have not had time to upload the Leate Brace photos, bit i can confirm that this armor supports neck braces. it even comes with extra bands to hold down the Brace...

Part of the spine protector (a small part) can be removed for the installation of the brace.

The real question is have you crashed with it yet? After a crash, let me know how it performs since some pads twist different directions. Yes I'm curious how would a Leatt fit on that armor, pretty sure it will have no problems with it.

With the way i ride... lol

i will have a "complete" review very soon! but i prefer not to attempt to crash... but from riding and pedaling and jumping and dropping i can say that this body armor did not shift one bit... even with the Lycra Underarmour undershirt i had on....

dang, that's a bit much for new armor. I have a dainese which is generally great but I do NOT like the way it fits...I think it's a bit too small for me...would be nice to get some non-bulky armor that ventillates well...cost of entry outweighs the positives for the moment....and I'm sick of they shmancy foam that people are using.

their knee/shin guards look amazing though. Do want.
