Quality
Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Body Armour. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Fox Racing Baseframe Pro Sleeveless Body Protector.
The first thing is material. Looking at what Fox Racing Baseframe Pro Sleeveless Body Protector is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.
Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Body Armour. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.
There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Body Armour. Brands like Fox Racing are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.
Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Body Armour category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.
Comparing Prices
Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Body Armour.
It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.
1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.
2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

- Description: Fox Racing Baseframe Pro Sleeveless Body ProtectorUsing innovative D3O reactive polymer padding, the Fox Racing Baseframe Pro Sleeveless Body Protector delivers incredible protection for any style of mountain bike riding. When you crash your mountain bike, the back is an area vulnerable to injury from impacts. However, the Baseframe Pro Sleeveless Body Protector provides flexible protection via it’s F3 back insert. Made from D30 polymer, the protector moulds to the body, both by softening from body heat and its flex grooves in the back. This allows you free and easy movement as you manoeuvre your mountain bike across the trail and yet, reacting to an impact, the D30 stiffens to absorb and dissipate crash forces. Padding at the hip also contributes to the overall protection the Baseframe offers.In order to keep you comfortable and minimise sweat build-up, the Baseframe Pro is made from a moisture-wicking mesh. Sweat is quickly removed from the skin, while the mesh also allows airflow to the body and speeds up sweat evaporation to keep you cool. Even the rowdiest of mountain biker is going to keep fresh when pulling on this protector.
