661 upper body comp suit for protection, only 79.99. Way more spine protection than rib protection, but anything helps.

661 pressure suit with shorts, 189.95.

Not my store, no involvement with them other than I get smokin deals from them all the time.

STP is just a good all around store that clears a lot of technical gear at greatly reduced prices. In between seasons, pricing gets silly/stupid/too good to believe and it is a dangerous site to visit.

You find yourself rationalizing purchases just because the pricing is so good. In a lot of respects similar to the "For Sale" section on PKF. :rolleyes:

Good customer support, reasonable shipping. :thumbup:

Yeah, I have zero bad things to say about Sierra Trading Post, and I'm one complainin mofo!

EEEK.... just noticed that the original poster is from the UK.... while shipping may make STP non-viable.

www.chainreactioncycles.co.uk (there is a secton on website dedicated to padding and protection gear) gets the nod from a lot of the UK fliers and riders.
