Manuel Poggiali Gilera MotoGP Suit Specifications & Construction Details

• Stretchable Cordura panels in sleeves, crotch, and calf provide maximum flex without compromising abrasion resistance.
• External replaceable TPU knee sliders protect the high-contact knee zone during slides.
• Pre-curved sleeves match the natural riding arm position to reduce strain and fatigue.
• YKK semi-auto-lock zippers at front, cuffs, and calf secure the suit against wind pressure and sliding forces.
• Velcro-reinforced straps at neck, cuff, and calf prevent flapping and ensure a locked-down fit at race speeds.
