Imo save the money and do some exercises to build the neck muscles up.

I think they're a bit overkill for most of us... Have you seen the motor cross neck rolls for £20? surely they're just as good but not as fashionable. I hate how MTBing is so full of fashion! it's 😳

Overkill for XC riding but definitely worth considering if you ride DH

have to be worn with a FF helmet. there is no doubt that there are a fair few MTBers getting neck breaks and these will help. No amount of exercise will amake much difference IMO.

Personally I'd rather not crash

or this, even better. Not much more & looks more like what you probably lust after.
