O'NEAL Split Youth Chest Protector Lite — Black One Size, Lightweight EN14021 Certified Protection

Built for junior riders who need extra coverage without bulk, this split-style chest protector combines injected plastic shells with bio-foam padding to absorb impacts from roost, rocks, and branches. The slim profile fits comfortably under or over a jersey, and detachable front and back pieces let caregivers customize coverage and storage. With neck-brace compatibility and multiple shoulder and waist adjustments, the Lite model balances safety features and freedom of movement for trail and track sessions.

How does this chest protector improve comfort during rides?

The protector uses layered bio-foam and a slim injected-plastic shell to cushion impacts while staying lightweight. Strategic ventilation channels and a low-profile design reduce heat buildup and bulk so young riders can move freely and maintain control.
