Product Information
Full details
The Leatt ReaFlex Stealth Protector Jacket is designed for mountain bikers and trail riders who prioritize impact protection without sacrificing mobility or weight. Featuring proprietary ReaFlex impact-absorbing material, this jacket offers comprehensive coverage for the back, shoulders, elbows, and chest in a low-profile, ergonomic package. While it provides professional-grade safety certified to EN1621 standards, users should note that the slim-fit compression design requires careful sizing to ensure the protective pads remain in the correct anatomical positions during active riding.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket machine washable?
It is recommended to hand wash the jacket in cold water. Always check the internal garment tag for specific care instructions.
Can I wear this under a regular jersey?
Yes, the ReaFlex Stealth is specifically designed to be slim enough to wear under most standard mountain bike jerseys.
Is the back protector removable?
The protective inserts are generally integrated or secured within pockets designed to hold them firmly; check the specific product batch for internal access points.
What does EN1621-1/2 certification mean?
These are European standards for protective clothing. Level 1 indicates the gear has passed standardized impact attenuation tests for motorcycling and cycling.
Does it include chest protection?
Yes, the jacket includes an integrated chest pad in addition to the back, shoulder, and elbow armor.
Will this fit under a hydration pack?
Yes, the low-profile design of the jacket makes it fully compatible with standard hydration packs or backpacks.
Troubleshooting
Pads shifting during rides
Ensure the jacket size is correct; a compression garment must fit tightly to keep armor in place.
Excessive sweating or overheating
Ensure you are using a moisture-wicking baselayer and that no thick cotton clothing is layered over the jacket.
Neck brace does not sit flush
Adjust the 'BraceOn' straps located on the shoulder and chest area to better accommodate the brace positioning.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Ultra-low profile fits easily under mountain bike jerseys
- Excellent freedom of movement thanks to ReaFlex material
- CE certified protection levels for back, shoulders, and elbows
- Breathable fabric construction reduces overheating

Cons
- Sizing is very snug due to the compression fit
- Provides less thermal warmth than traditional hard-shell armor
- Chest protection is lighter compared to full roost deflectors
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results, ensure the jacket is worn as a base layer directly against the skin or over a very thin technical baselayer. The compression fit is essential for safety; if the pads shift, the jacket is too large.
- Compatibility: The jacket is pre-configured for the *BraceOn* system. Adjust the straps to align with your specific neck brace size before your first ride.
- Cleaning: Remove the protective inserts if possible according to the care label, or hand wash the jacket in cool water with mild soap.
- Drying: Air dry only. Avoid direct heat or tumble drying, as this can degrade the elasticity of the compression fabric and the integrity of the impact gel.
- Inspection: Regularly check the impact pads for cracks or signs of fatigue, especially after a significant impact, to ensure the ReaFlex material remains effective.
