Worthwhile upgrade
12 November 2024 by Ian A
As a reasonably priced, good quality upgrade to the polyurethane jokes that come with many a jacket, there is little excuse for not getting a pair. I put these in my Alpinestars Patron jacket and the fit is comfortingly snug. They fill all the space in the chest protector pockets and are semi-soft so they move with you, such that they are not noticeable in use. Haven't hit a brick wall at 90mph yet but they are level 2 so that's as good as it gets for protective inserts. Please note that they are not D3O type soft but they are malleable.

Good product I hope I never need

As with all Alpinestar products, this was of the great quality you'd expect. The only concern is that Alpinestar are never good at telling you which protection fits which jacket.
SPORTSBIKESHOP shop sold this through their website but it took about a month to receive it, out of stock. Not ideal but I have it now at least.

Top quality as always from Alpinestar. Light weight and easy to install into jacket. Gives a real sense of security knowing they are there.

If you're like me and never really had chest protectors, for the cost benefit analysis of these, there's really no excuse.
Fits perfectly into an A* Missile Ignition V2 1 piece suit. SBS confirmed fitment over email & they fit great.
These say 'chest' but they also cover all of your ribs too! This in effect is providing a degree of protection for some internal organs too.
The pockets for them are the perfect size and keep them firmly in place although one is slightly positioned 0.5cm higher but covers entirety of the area still; that's the suit pocket not the protector :).
These inspire confidence in the protection. I bought these for a one piece and subsequently bought another brands for my two piece as well.

Alpinestars Nucleon Flex Pro - Chest

Very sturdy L-sized pads that fit well into a 54 (44) Missile V2 jacket. Not too bulky when installed, wouldn't know they're there tbh! No issues riding on a sports bike (crouched over).

Perfect Fit

Quality feeling product. I fitted size L to my XL sized Alpinestars jacket. The protectors are a tight fit (which they should be, rather than moving around in the custom pockets). I do not notice them when I am wearing the jacket.

Superfast Delivery

Ordered Sunday, delivered Monday, well done Sportsbikeshop.
Ordered Large for a size 50 Andes 3 jacket.
Only just fitted into the pockets, once I could find them, but seem secure and you hardly notice they are there.
Good kit, would highly recommend.

Fantastic upgrade
01 February 2024 by Tom E
Very pleased with this item. Never had chest protectors before so nice to have extra protection.
Sizing is hard to find from Alpinestars & SBS were unsure so I ordered both S & L. My jacket is a ST-7 size Medium and the Small protectors were the correct size. L way too big so returned.
Comfort wise... Well I fitted the protectors and didn't ride for two weeks. First time I rode it was about half an hour into the ride I remembered they were there & knock my chest to make sure!
They have a nice protective thickness to them but being flexible you can barely feel them.
Definitely worth it even for protection piece of mind.

Does what it says on the tin

Fits in all three of my 2xl Astars jackets. They are thin, flexible and should allow good airflow through my mesh jacket. Feel like they will be protective though hopefully I won't put that to the test.

So thin and flexible in comparison to others on the market. aStars also make it super easy to install in my GP Plus V3.

Fit perfectly in my Astars one piece suit, you don't know you have them in. Could possibly be a bit bigger to offer more protection but well worth having..

Sensible upgrade

Put these into my Alpinestars jacket. They are reassuringly bulky for a Level-2 protector. Maybe slightly less flexible than other nucleon flex protectors I have used.
