    Default Kids riding gear

    Does anyone have a source for finding road-riding gear for kids? I find a ton of off-road stuff but haven't been able to find a proper riding jacket with armor for a 7 year old.

    Might be a little young for ATGATT. That is also probably a reason why good gear is scarce for that age bracket.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    As fast as kids grow keeping them in proper fitting gear could be a major expense. It would seem there should be a market for very good condition used gear out there somewhere.

    I got my wife a jacket from here a few years ago. She wears youth.

    In Utah their feet have to reach the footpegs before they can ride. I have found xs helmets work. Have also found some kids helmets online. Kids Cowboy boots work as do Kids MX pants. As fot jackets again try the internet or xs woman sizes. I have also moved the armour over the elbows then wraped black tape above and below to hold it there. Put a belt around the outside of the jacket to keep it from flapping and to hold it down. Hope this helps.
