Kev-Co/stubbs 5100 Kidney Belt
KEV-CO/STUBBS 5100 KIDNEY BELT
Redefining comfort and support
A QUALITY KIDNEY BELT IS AN ESSENTIAL part of the off-road rider’s wardrobe. Most kidney belts, however, are nothing more than constrictive elastic devices that support your stomach and lower back at the expense of squashing your insides.
Now there’s a kidney belt that supports your vital parts without wrenching your gut. The 5100 kidney belt from Kev-Co/Stubbs Racing (4518 Vanowen Street, Burbank, CA 91505; 800/223-1713) is manufactured from heavy-duty elastic and nylon webbing, with a perspiration-absorbing tricot liner. Attached to the belt’s exterior are a pair of wing-like elastic straps. These velcro-adjustable straps tailor compression and support without altering the pressure applied by the main belt.
Several months of trail riding and bone-jarring motocross revealed that the belt is everything it is claimed to be: The 5100’s support is as good as, if not better than, that of any kidney belt on the market, and comfort is unsurpassed. Streetriders, especially those who regularly travel rough roads, will also appreciate the benefits offered by the hand-washable belt.
The 5 100 comes with a six-month unconditional warranty, but even after nine months of regular use, the belt’s medical-quality elastic shows little wear. Available in black, purple or blue in XS-XXL sizes, the Kev-Co/Stubbs Racing 5100 kidney belt retails for $40, a small price to pay for the protection and comfort the belt provides. □
