Hey everyone,, I need a belt because I'm still hurtin from a fall 10 days ago. I've read a lot of posts about this and it seems a good belt is pretty important.
I saw the FOX black belt,, looks like a nice design..
Anyone have any suggestions what to buy and where are the best prices?

I guess:confused:
I've heard that it is a pretty important peice of protection and like I wrote,, since I crashed recently I thought it might help for added protection.
My side looks like an eggplant

FOX blackbelt is my favorite - very nice belt - very comfortable!!! The kidney belt helps to keep your kidneys from hurting on jiggly high speed rides, plus they offer more protection than just gear in the event of a crash - for your stomach and for your kidneys/lower back area....plus, they do help support the back muscles as well. Good investment - something I always wear....
