Royal Enfield recently launched its new range of ‘Ergo Pro Tech’ armour, which will now go on sale along with other apparel and riding gear from the brand. The new range of armour has been designed and developed in house through deep research. Royal Enfield claims that the Ergo Pro Tech armour surpasses CE level 2 armour based on various tests. The Ergo Pro Tech armour includes protection for shoulders, elbows, knees, chest and the back. Most riding jackets and pants have pockets to insert armour at these impact points.
