Teknic suit any good?

Well , there are different levels of Teknic . I've personally crashed in both the gloves and a jacket and both came out like pearls. The jacket was white silver and black and the white part was faded off just a little. ( I slid on my back for a pretty good way. ). And the gloves are still wearable today. Granted I opted for the top line Speedstar level of Teknic. I had a pair of The low end prowler pants and the seams started to give and the crotch tended to bunch. But when I got the speedstar level I could'nt be more satisfied with them. Teknic is a brand I trust and would buy again. In all it's like Comparing the safety of a Geo metro to a Cadillac Seville. Both are made by GM but you pay extra for more.

Speedstar level stuff is quality anything below that is one time use.

Step away...The chicane is GOAT SKIN and will not hold up in a crash.Thats why its socheap.Look around For a FULL grain cowhide suit is possible.1.4 mm thick will dothe trick.

The Violator and Lightning jackets are cowhide, Chicane is goatskin.
I have a Violator and it is built very well, metal zippers, armor that stays in place and the cowhide is thick.
