New iXS Hex Pull-Over chest & back protector gets energy-absorbing honeycomb impact protection that’s easy on & off from climbs to downhills…
Click to email a link to a friend Based on the same energy-absorbing honeycomb structure of the rest of their HEX protection line-up, this new iXS Hex Pull-Over provides gravity-ready chest and back protection in a more user-friendly form. Pull it over your jersey for secure impact protection. Then, pull it back off when you need to cool down. Of course, I understand the safety needs for a back protector in the bikepark.
The Hex Pull-Over offers level 2 back protection and level 1 chest protection . iXS also says it also meets the “stone shield standard” which basically defines the opening to not allow a 15mm tapered rock to get through.The Swiss folks at iXS talked me into trying out their new Hex Pull-Over, and by the end of my second or third ride, I think I was sold on the ideal of the pull-over chest and back protector combo.
Bikepark season hasn’t really kicked off yet. So, I’ve been pedaling up steep hills a lot. And it’s been unseasonably warm.and a slightly less protective but similar option from another brand… review coming soon there, too ). And I think the pull-over has become something I’ll take with me on pretty much any ride now that involves steep rocky or rooty drop-ins or any real jumps. And that pretty much covers almost every bit of my local mountain biking outside of the classic XC racer singletrack rides.
On the ride up, I generally just unclip one of the side buckles to let it hang away from my chest for a bit of extra airflow. On longer, hotter climbs, I’ve taken the Pull-Over off entirely, and hung it from my bars on wide forest road climbs. A simple few twists of the chest relative to the back and snappy it back together lets it hang straight off the end of my bar.
