Spyke Riding Suit
I have seen a Spyke leather riding suit but I dont know anything about them. Are they any good. The brands we have here in sweden are mostly Dainese or Alpinestars. How do they compare with these brands ?

I have a Spyke suit. I'm very happy with it.
Very well made, the leather is very supple and was so right from the very first time I wore it.
Best of all it's very YELLOW

Would have to say mine are great, had an off and hit my elbow on the curbing on a round about,the leathers were damaged but i did not feel a thing(would have broken my arm with out them).Had the leathers repaired now almost as good as new.Would recomend them no probs +some of the top riders were them

I can reccomend spyke leathers, my old two piece suit survived 2 lowsides at brands (not on the same day) and was still intact, the knees only wore through in 2 small places when I highsided and went down the road on my knees.
I have a spyke race suit but cannot wear it at the moment as too much beer/pies and no exercise has expanded my waistline.


dave

ps the shoulder, elbow and knee armour Is very good but I would reccomend a seperate back protector
