Will this fit the Urban rider(Merlin) Onyx wax jacket? Thanks

Sorry, we only have the dimensions 27cm Wide x 44cm Tall (approximately)

What pocket size would this fit?

I can confirm the dimensions of the Merlin D3O Viper back protector are 27cm Wide x 44cm Tall (approximately)

Merlin D3O CE Viper Protector - Back

Our customers say…

Customers appreciate the comfort, flexibility, and lightness of this product. Many found it a perfect fit for their Merlin jackets, providing excellent protection without being bulky. However, some noted it was too large and required trimming to fit specific jackets, which was a design flaw. Comparatively more comfortable than some alternatives, it is ideal for those seeking unobtrusive protection. The product remains well-regarded, offering good coverage and maintaining a soft feel when worn.

Just got second one even though The ghost back protector came out recently, I haven't so the need to buy The ghost because The viper does a great job.

Comfortable back protector.

This was purchased to go in my Merlin Brody riding shirt. I wanted something that wasn't too bulky which would look bulbous when worn. This is ideal as it is light and hardly noticeable, but still offers the D3O level of protection.

Merlin Back protector

18 January 2023 by Dave M

Not the most robust back protector on the market, but I needed to fit the jacket I purchased. It was a little expensive compared to other top of the range protectors, but hopefully, I will never need to test it out. Overall It fits the jacket, and it is a bit of plastic shaped to fit.

Great service again

Kept up to date by SBS as to small delay in order. Arrived within a week anyway and is just the job for a Merlin jacket (nice and thin, not bulky at all)

Bought to fit Merlin Perton jacket. Ordered into store & was able to try with jacket. Fits well in the pocket , covers a good area of the back. Comfortable when riding & much lighter than my old dianese one.
Good service very happy

Merlin back protection

24 May 2021 by Glenn U

Great product , very flexible and comfy to use. I have seen reviews quoting size issues. I have a Merlin Perton jacket in medium and it's a perfect fit. I also use an Alpine stars protector which although looks very similar is nothing like as flexible or comfy.

Good product spoilt by being too big

23 March 2021 by Mike P

This product has a nice soft feel (until it is shocked when it goes hard temporarily) and is well ventilated so it should score 5 stars. Unfortunately as others have mentioned it is slightly to big for the pocket in my Merlin leather jacket so I will have to trim it down to make it fit. This will mean cutting off the tapered edge and this may make the protector visible on the outside of the jacket. This error in design is very disappointing

Feels nice but too big

03 March 2021 by Mike

Great quality with a soft feel. But only 4 stars as its too big. Wont fit in an XXL Merln jacket. But it can be cut down quite easily.

Great service from SportsbikeShop as usual.

Does the job perfectly

20 December 2020 by Paul

Fits the Merlin Edale jacket I bought it for perfectly (jacket was size large). Has a nice rounded edge so it doesn't show through the jacket so much as a square edge would. Soft, flexible, light - it's D30 so everything you'd expect.

Genius

This replaces a hard protector that was both uncomfortable and made me look like Quasimodo but still offers the same category of protection. I have it in my Dianese Carve Master II. You can't even feel it so light and flexible. Also it was half the price of the hard protector. Very happy.

Amazing how light and flexible it feels.

Purchased this armour for a Merlin jacket. It was to big for the pocket in the back. I had to cut down the armour to fit. Feels very light and once impacted goes hard. Wouldn't notice it in the jacket.
