The perforated outer plates are not simply a styling choice — they form a continuous ventilation channel that keeps core temperature manageable through every lap, a detail that becomes critical during multi-session track days. The internal aluminium honeycomb frame is borrowed directly from racing armour thinking: lightweight yet capable of spreading peak impact forces across a wide surface area so the spine receives far less concentrated load in the event of a fall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the road, the same attributes translate into a protector you can wear all day without fatigue. The double-jersey lumbar strip and shoulder straps conform to the body rather than fighting it, and the lumbar articulation joint moves naturally with tuck or upright riding positions alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials and Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe outer shell is moulded from polypropylene in a wave-form, perforated geometry that balances rigidity with flexibility. Beneath it, the dual-density thermoformed peripheral structure provides a secondary layer of structural support around the protector's perimeter. The Crash Absorb® foam core is the energy management heart of the system, engineered to compress progressively and return to shape after low-energy impacts. Inner lining panels are constructed from breathable polyester mesh; lumbar and shoulder adjustment straps use double-jersey fabric for skin-friendly comfort during extended wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Sizing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Wave 12 D1 AIR is available in two size variants to match rider height precisely:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize M — suits riders up to 170 cm \/ 66.9 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize L — suits riders from 170 cm \/ 66.9 in up to 185 cm \/ 72.8 in (part number 20187610100100)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe doubly adjustable lumbar band and removable shoulder straps provide additional fine-tuning within each size range.
