A back protector built from fan-shaped overlapping plates for mobility, with a hook-and-loop hip belt adjustable for different waist sizes.
The bottom line Publishes how it articulates and how it anchors — the two things that decide whether a back protector is worn. It publishes no classification.
Fan-shaped overlapping protectors for mobility, a hook-and-loop hip belt adjustable across waist sizes, covering back and spine.
A back protector is a plate against a back that bends. Overlapping segments articulate; a single plate does not. This is a real construction difference, it is published, and it decides whether the thing is tolerable for three hours.
The hip belt anchors it so it does not ride up — the other property that decides whether a harness protector stays where it was put.
The standard, the level and the type. Certified armour carries all three printed on it.
Between 42 € and 56 € across the German, French and Spanish Amazon stores, in the single reading behind this page.
Priced in local currency, which the euro range above deliberately leaves out, it also appears on the British Amazon store.
More than 1.6× what the cheapest country asked was being charged on the Italian Amazon store. A gap of that width usually points to goods sent in from abroad rather than a seller on the ground, so that amount stays outside the range above.
An entry with nobody selling against it sits in the American Amazon catalogue.

A single rigid plate resists bending. Overlapping segments let the back curve when a rider tucks, which decides whether the protector is tolerable over hours.
It anchors the protector at the waist so it does not ride up. On a harness-worn protector that is the difference between staying in place and moving.
A rider who wants articulation and will check the marking on the product.
